Since I started taking my antidepressants, I am losing a lot of hair. Is this temporary?

Yes, hair loss while taking antidepressants is usually temporary and reversible. The side effect may decrease as you continue taking the medication, and you should see regrowth once you stop taking it. It is common for hair loss to occur at the beginning but lessen over time. Just be patient, and your hair should start to grow back.
