Is it normal to have 'butterfly feelings' taking antidepressants?

I've been on them for just over a week now. This time last week I felt very very low. To the point I was suicidal. Today I've felt my mood shift, feel a lot happier in myself. Butterfly feelings, cannot even begin to think why I felt that way before. I want to go back to work. (Been signed off for two weeks) Thinking now it was just a blip.

I currently have a mental health team visit me every other day, but I don't feel like I need them anymore.

Has anyone else experienced this? Is this a normal feeling? Will I come crashing down again in the next step couple of days?
