My advice DON'T take that stuff if you get a chance, it make's people worse from what I have seen.
Maybe your dad needs to see a different doctor, it doesn't sound like he's getting the right kind of medication. I've been on an antidepressant for 10 years and I can't tell you enough how it saved my life. It also saved my mother's life - she's a completely different person since getting on medication. The meds can be extremely helpful.
