Can a mother get custody if she is on depression medication?

Yes, a mother can get custody if she is on depression medication. However, the court may consider the following factors:

The mother's ability to parent her child

The severity of the mother's depression

The side effects of the mother's medication

The mother's willingness to get treatment

The mother's overall mental health

In general, the court will prioritize the best interests of the child. If the court finds that the mother's depression is not severe, or that it is being well-managed with medication, then it may award her custody of her child. However, if the court finds that the mother's depression is severe and interferes with her ability to care for her child, then it may award custody to the child's father or another family member.
