Hello,
Thanks for choosing health care magic for posting your query.
I have gone through your question in detail and I can understand what you are going through.
This may occur cause of excessive sedation cause of the anti-depressants that you are on. As it has occurred only ones, then there is nothing to worry about. You may plan to reduce your dose of anti-depressant so that the sedation is reduced and future such incidences are reduced.
Hope I am able to answer your concerns.
If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you.
