@MoralMedicine Honest to gods these doctors should go to hell for what they do to people.

Angie Peacock, MSW, CPC1 year ago

@MoralMedicine The trying things can keep this chronic in my experience. Leave the body alone and let it heal!

@MoralMedicine Been there, what helped me a lot was to really upregulate dopamine receptors again after SSRIs by way of cocaine (single dose) and partaking in high risk activities.

@MoralMedicine Ummm, Mirtazepine isn’t an SSRI tho? 🤔

PSSD Network | Post-SSRI Sexual Dysfunction1 year ago

@MoralMedicine The diagnostic criteria for PSSD encompasses all serotonin reuptake inhibiting (SRI) drugs. Current warnings are just for SSRIs and SNRIs. There may need to be a separate condition created for drugs like mirtazapine, which also act on the serotonin system.

@MoralMedicine Proscription: a notice of citizens to be killed/banished and have their goods confiscated. killing/betraying them was rewarded, harboring them was severely penalized. we are depressed because evil rules the world. doctors are evil. their job is to kill who is not evil.

🚨Many people prescribed SSRI antidepressants don’t realize that they can cause irreversible damage to sexual function, says leading sexual medicine clinician Dr. Irwin Goldstein San Diego Sexual Med. “SSRIs, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, are one of the most widely prescribed medications in the United States…The problem is they are recognized to raise serotonin—that's their mechanism—but serotonin is an inhibitor of sexual function. While using the medication, it's widely appreciated that individuals will suffer sexual health concerns. But…when they stop the medicine, the usual teaching is that everyone returns to their pre-medication sexual function. And that's not what we're seeing in our sexual health clinic here. The name of the condition is post-SSRI sexual dysfunction, or PSSD, and it's an awful condition. It persists, causes frustration, embarrassment, humiliation. It causes erectile dysfunction in young men, libido problems, genital sensation changes, orgasmic dysfunction.”

“I have no sensation in my genitals. My clitoris is completely numb.” Lauren Friedman, 23, shared her devastating experience with PSSD (Post-SSRI Sexual Dysfunction) — permanent loss of libido, sensation, and ability to orgasm after taking antidepressants. Chris Williamson and Isabel Brown reacted with shock, noting how little mainstream coverage this issue receives. Sexual side effects from SSRIs affect 50-70% of users. For a subset of people, these effects (including genital numbness and anorgasmia) persist long after discontinuation, a condition known as Post-SSRI Sexual Dysfunction (PSSD). The exact prevalence is unknown, but patient reports and emerging research suggest it may be under-recognized. People deserve full informed consent about potential long-term risks before starting these medications. What do you think, should PSSD get more public and medical attention?

Joe Rogan dropped a side effect of Ozempic that doesn’t get much airtime: some people say it dulls more than appetite, it can flatten the feeling of being in love and the ability to enjoy much of anything. Then he brought up SSRIs. A woman (Lauren Friedman) publicly described permanent genital numbness and loss of orgasm that continued after she stopped the drug. Marcus King didn’t hold back: that’s messed up. Sexual dysfunction is one of the most common SSRI side effects, and in a subset of people it can persist as post-SSRI sexual dysfunction (PSSD). The mechanisms are still being studied, but the reports are real. Two widely prescribed tools, two under-discussed costs.

“I’m 23 years old… and my clitoris is completely numb, like the back of my elbow. I can’t orgasm. I can’t feel love for my own mother. I can’t even enjoy music anymore.” That was Laureen Friedman’s raw testimony at a recent Safety Advocates on Mental Health Care panel. She lives with PSSD — Post-SSRI Sexual Dysfunction. After taking Zoloft, she woke up one day with total genital numbness, zero libido, permanent inability to orgasm, and a sudden emotional numbness she describes as “chemical castration” and an “emotional lobotomy.” What used to be a deeply emotional, empathetic, songwriting young woman now feels disconnected from the core human experiences of love and pleasure. She says she was never warned this could happen even after stopping the drug. Millions are prescribed SSRIs every year, often without being told about rare but potentially permanent side effects like PSSD. People deserve full informed consent about what they’re risking. Have you or anyone you know experienced lasting sexual or emotional side effects from antidepressants?

I sound mad, because I am. For 6 years, my daughter needlessly suffered from treatment resistant “severe mental illness” that I now know was metabolic and mitochondrial dysfunction that I could have fixed from day one on my own at home and in my kitchen. It was never Bipolar Disorder (and hallucinations during manic episodes), never OCD, never anxiety, not depression, not ADHD. It was her body screaming out for help. This book was published in 1975. 50 years ago!! In August of 2024, I found metabolic therapies. I changed our diet. I threw out ALL of my groceries and went to the farm. 7 days later, she was off her afternoon meds. 3 weeks after that, we found Brain Energy and added the ketogenic diet to our metabolic therapies. 3 days after that, she woke up an entirely new child. She was off all medication within the next 2 weeks and in remission ever since. From treatment resistant to living her best life in 6 weeks. We are built from food. Not pharmaceuticals. Get curious. Your child’s life might just depend on it.

🚨 TRUMP: "I've got 32 days with ZERO break. We have another 23 days left. I'm going to go with zero break. In theory you should collapse, but I view it differently. I would feel very guilty if I sat at home doing nothing one day or two days out of 23. The prize is the Presidency and making America great again. She takes two, three days off a week. I couldn't do that. This is too important."

Bogdan Bogdanovic on his hamstring injury suffered at EuroBasket: “I think it wasn't as big of an issue. It scared me at the beginning like everything else. With a partially ruptured tendon, you never know how partially ruptured it is. It could take anywhere from 4-6 weeks of recovery. I'm in week 5 and I feel good. I've been playing with the guys in limited amounts of minutes.”
