Maybe you are suffering from anhedonia like me.
I feel no pleasure in anything anymore.
It's as though you have died inside.

I'm glad the recent BBC Panorama episode spotlit PSSD. This is a human rights issue and it's despicable that psychiatry has scarcely begun to address it. I don't have it, but I won't shut up about it. I think about it everyday, no joke. So sorry you were harmed so comprehensively. I hope one day soon everyone will know what these drugs have been doing to people for decades.

Yes it is hell. For how long do you have PSSD? Do you know others? I am wondering how it is possible to cope with that 11 years or longer. I am in contact with some other german sufferers.

PSSD feels like a waking coma.
You are just an observer, unable to experience. No more joy or pleasure ever
Your connection to the world, to the people in it, to life itself is just.. gone.
And this stems from a pill that was supposed to «treat» mental health.
Oh the irony.

I cannot feel nikotin from a cigaret, or thc from a joint. Even alcohol and coffee cannot affect me anymore. How is that possible? It must have something to do with dopamin recepors. I think they are permanentely damaged in our brains. I used to react very sensitive to bupropion 150mg. Now i can take 300mg and there is no effect.

Can you still cry or get goose flesh? I used to when i heard good film music but it is not possible now anymore.

Yes the brain receptors are permanet damage, cant feel emotions from the music i used to like, cant feel or understand movies anymore, i used to get high of weed with no problem and even feel better music and food, no longer possible weed is like smoking air now, cant feel alcohol, cigarretes or coffe, cant sleep even if i take high doses of sleeping pills... forget about masturbation, not even possible now... cant respond to anything, robot or zombie like, wish to cry but i cant and when i do is for like 2 minutes and little drops from eyes then come back to same state of Numb.
I'm a little bit scared i will not respond to SN since my receptos are damaged, idk if will work of fail, but have high hopes it will work since reading old post from user @jrums i think he was able to do so with SN having PSSD
I've had PSSD since 2016.
idk how u made it to 2023, do u have anhedonia?

I'm in the same situation as you are. Unable to function, unable to feel because of pssd. Considered we don't even react to benzos Nembutal is not for us, cuz they act in a very similar way. Anyway I think that for SN there is no problem, it has nothing to do with dopamine or gaba neurotransmitters. It acts on hemoglobin.

Have you already bought it?

I'm more convinced now that forcing someone into existence is the real crime here. How can you expose someone to experience something like this?

How can antidepressants be so widely used when there is very little reward and so much risk?

Antidepressants are widly used to change the brain chemitry to make patients see their surrounding world through pink and orange glasses. However this does not cure the patients real problem that is causing a depression or "mental problems". In most cases that doesn't help at all unfortunately rather it cause other huge problems that make the patients' situation even worse.

This is not a medical advice it's my personal opinion.

Honestly fuck all mental issues...they are the real plight of humanity.

We are coming close to human-like ai, we have a cure to many illness that used to be life-threatening and yet no one has even so much of clue how the brain works.Just selling useless medications that are placebo + side effects

Exactly. I took SSRIs in my teens and twenties, and consider myself extremely lucky to have escaped this horrible fate, but I can't stop thinking about the ones who didn't escape, I'm anguished and outraged for them, the reptilian corporate psychiatric scum who do this to them must be stopped, and they must pay.

I'm so sorry you are going through this. Honestly, that's my biggest fear going on antidepressants is the PSSD. It is inhumane how doctors and health practitioners will say that the sexual side effects are reversible, even though the evidence suggests otherwise. I'm in my 20s and i still feel that I should be able to have a sexual life. My doctor wants to put me on prozac (flouxetine) now, but I'm really hesitant because of PSSD. Have tried the others with less sex side effects (buproprion and votioxetine), those haven't helped me. I wonder what have your doctor's reaction's been to your PSSD? probably denial that it exists or that it is super rare?
