Evaluating the Oxford Questionnaire of Emotional Side-effects of Antidepressants (OQESA)
A team of researchers at the University of Oxford's Department of Psychiatry are interested in possible emotional side effects of antidepressants.
Recently, as part of a research study, they have been talking to people taking an antidepressant who have experienced emotional side-effects, in order to find out more. They have used their findings to devise a new questionnaire which they hope will measure these side-effects.
Their new research study aims to test this new questionnaire with over 200 people who are taking antidepressants some of whom may be experiencing emotional side-effects.
