What medicine are you on? Which anti depressant? Some class of antidepressants can cause such disturbance. Please tell you treating psychiatrist and your medicine dose can be adjusted.

Antidepressants can cause gastric trouble rarely. If you are experiencing any kindly contact your doctor and talk to him about it. Drink plenty of water. Walk regularly. Eat lots of vegetables. Am sure it will be taken care of. Dont stop the medicines. Side effects can be temporary and will resolve with time.
