I was on SSRIs for a little while, as in less than six months, and while I was on them I did become a lot more reckless. It's like... when you fall down, you naturally catch yourself with your hands by lifting them up, but the SSRI's remove that reflex... so to speak. Without that proverbial catch, my thoughts apathetically ran wild. Luckily I was the kind who did extensive research on the meds I took and read a lot of stories about people who committed murder suicide on SSRIs and decided to cut off from them. While I was on them, I had certain episodes where I did stupid things like cut myself and then planned my own suicide before I realized they were allowing me to go into these extreme thoughts without restraint. Disgusting stuff... I've never trust big pharma after that. In a bout of desperation I did a strong dose of psychadelics and changed my way of thinking, cutting it all off cold turkey. Once I was off of them, I did everything in my power to become well on my own by practicing DBT therapy, Stoicism, Buddhism and mindfulness. These helped me a great deal, and also allowed me to recognize that the mainstream teaches the bare opposite which only exasperates mental illness. There is something evil about these meds. I'd never wish them on anyone.
