Life quality "Zero". Thanks to pharmaceutical industry. Still dont give up.

My life disappears more and more due to #pssd #psychiatricharm
I lost my job, my husband, my social life, my health, even my children and worst of all, I can't even cry about it, bearely think about it. All because I sought 'help' after having covid. Nowhere to escape. 5 years.

“SSRIs won’t change your personality” is one of the most dangerous and destructive pieces of misinformation told by doctors over the past few decades.

The truth is, they can not only change your personality while on the drug, but the changes can persist even after stopping.

I can't stop thinking about the many fellow PSSD sufferers who ended their lives due to the unbearable suffering that comes with this severe multisystemic iatrogenic condition.
This thread is for them and the silence that failed them. (1/10)

[Jorge Hernández PSSD @redpavement]

I have always been top in my classes. I studied a Bachelor in Mechanical Electrical Engineering, and graduated with several achievements.

Now, I can't work as an engineer, because I have been permanently damaged by an SSRI.

I was planning to move to USA, and everything went downhill, because of just some few doses of an SSRI.

Now, I can't express myself properly, and can't imagine and do mental math as before.

@_innercompass That I would lose all my emotions, humanity,good cognition, love for my husband and children, joy of life, job... Just because I trusted docs. Lost my whole personality and life. Ready for euthanasia.

@newstart_2024 What has happened to Lauren and thousands of other PSSD patients worldwide is CRIMINAL. I am incredibly proud and thankful for Lauren's courage to speak out!! Harmed patients deserve justice and medical help.

Lauren Friedman was an anxious, sensitive college freshman when her friends pushed her to see a psychiatrist.

She told the story recently: she walked in, got told she had a “chemical imbalance,” and was prescribed medication — without any tests. Something felt off to her. She thought, “If I was diabetic, they’d test me first.” But she trusted the white coat and the MD title.

Looking back, she wishes she had listened to that initial gut feeling.

Have you (or someone close to you) ever felt rushed into psychiatric medication, or did you push back and seek other approaches first?

Pssd and severe BIND make me bedridden. Like I had a severe concussion. I can't even cry. Buried alive! #pssd

[Camus @newstart_2024]

“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?

@newstart_2024 Ssri's ruined me, my family and my whole life. Severe neurological symptoms, brainfog, no emotions, no libido.. #pssd

[Dr. Roger McFillin @DrMcFillin]

🧵Public Service Announcement: Post SSRI Sexual Dysfunction (PSSD) is real, much more prevalent than recognized, debilitating, & serious. There are so many young people who assume they are Asexual or lack sexual attraction toward others but it's a common SSRI reaction.

@PSSDNetwork I am Belgian too. I will try to report. I thought I was the only Belgian. So severe I almost can't report.

[Greet @GreetLecluse]

@Lotte522301280 I don't know if I have to pay for it in my country.. if it's legally approved, I don't think so.

[Greet @GreetLecluse]

I'll apply for euthanasia after psy meds robbed me from my feelings, joy, health, sleep, capacities and made me almost bedridden, often tortured. Ty psychiatry! I never wanted to die before. I just was overstressed. I have to let me kill a 2nd time by a psychiatrist now #PSSD

[Greet @GreetLecluse]

@Lotte522301280 Euthanasia is legal in my country Belgium. It's just fucking hard I have to let me kill a second time by psychiatrists.

[Greet @GreetLecluse]

@Lotte522301280 @iatrogenicse No, I even lack the courage for this.

[Greet @GreetLecluse]

@MikhailaFuller My story is here:

@iatrogenicaware @MikhailaFuller Wow you described it so well. At the same time it makes me aware this is an eternal condition. I am 53 and lost my whole life. Almost bedridden #pssd
