Antidepressants and hiv test

Does antidepressants affect the hiv test. If no then what does this article mean? https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2978281/

  1. Alafia (Peace) I can't speak to the article but I can speak my own experience. I have been living with HIV for 34 years and I have also been taken mental health medications for many years. If mental health meds effect an HIV test is something we cannot answer because we are not medical experts. May I ask, why his question? Have you taken an HIV test while on mental health meds?
