PSSD sufferer | I regret taking antidepressants
@PSSD_sufferer
Harmed by SSRI antidepressants escitalopram and sertraline. Emotional blunting, anhedonia, cognitive impairment, fatigue. Post-SSRI sexual dysfunction. #PSSD
I took SSRI antidepressants escitalopram and sertraline without being properly informed about the risks. I wish I had made a different choice. I got severe side effects and even after stopping the antidepressants I still feel altered and not like myself. I ended up with #PSSD.
What a criminal thing for psychiatry to claim. They should be held liable for the suffering of my great nephew who was exposed and harmed by SSRI'S in utero
this is criminal. My Great nephew & his parents have suffered greatly due to their infant being exposed in utero to SSRI'S. They were told it was perfectly safe. He was born with craniosynostosis & had to be airlifted at birth to a children's hospital. He's 3 & still affected 😡
I have emotional blunting from ssris that is still persistent a year after coming off them. I feel completely numb, desperate to feel again 😞

I want to introduce the APA to David. He spent his first eight months in and out of hospital. At 11 days old, he had his first heart surgery and was connected to machines for five weeks. Doctors say he may not live beyond 40. His mother was prescribed Citalopram before pregnancy.
There is no overall evidence that SSRIs are unsafe during pregnancy, and in fact SSRIs can be lifesaving for pregnant women with mood & anxiety disorders. That's a key point of a letter APA sent today to U.S. FDA Commissioner Dr. Marty Makary, expressing its alarm over some of…
Since getting permanently harmed by an SSRI, I can't think to which way a nut should turn to tighten it onto a bolt/screw. See image. I lost the ability to imagine in my head. #PSSD
If you had to pick 1 video to show a #PSSD skeptic, what would it be? I've showed my parent a few already, but because the patients had a mental health history, they didn't buy it. I don't get it, why would anyone go to such lengths to lie & expose their face for the hell of it?
Is that why they’ve permanently altered sensation throughout my body? Now my skin feels like I’m wearing a onesie out of someone’s flesh. Even my genitalia. How do we reverse this? This is NOT a feature, it’s a bug yet you guys have no idea how it actually works.
Absolutely great numbing agents. They numb your whole body amd mind. It can be permanent. Patients must be told that permanently losing one’s sexuality and emotions can be a trade-off.
“A lot of women who are interested in starting families start to question what their medications are doing and what the risks are... neurodevelopmental problems, bleeding during pregnancy, congenital heart malformations. They've never heard of these things – and they feel…
Doubt many see this post, but we'll see. I have #PSSD. 7 yrs in. Severe case. Family saw my rapid decline in 18. I tried so hard to educate them, just gaslighted.Pointless. Only believed my DR's word. I just want to talk to anyone whos fighting the same battle Were all Warriors

"I think the PSSD folks—the Post-SSRI Sexual Dysfunction folks—have brought in more attention to that, the sort of chemical injury that we're seeing." @AdamUrato1, Chief of Maternal-Fetal Medicine at MetroWest Medical Center, at the @US_FDA Expert Panel on SSRIs and Pregnancy.

There is no safe exposure to SSRIs. Even 1 pill can destroy your life in rare cases. Every time someone takes them they are playing Russian roulette with their future. If you are one of the unlucky ones, you will regret it forever.
I doubt if any of these influential psychiatrists and MH professionals have ever talked to someone like me. My son was damaged as the result of a TCA I was prescribed in pregnancy. A trainee psychiatrist warned me not to fearmonger about long-term harms. I felt sickened.
If serotonin plays a crucial role in fetal development (which it does) & if SSRIs disrupt the serotonin system (which they do) then the SSRIs must alter fetal development - and the public should be warned. This point was not disputed at yesterday's panel.
