@DailyMail Not safe. Not effective. Approved on short term cherry-picked trials (8-12 weeks). Most people stay on them for years. They can cause PSSD (permanent sexual dysfunction), akathisia, and suicide. SSRIs will eventually be regarded with the same contempt we regard lobotomies today.
“I miss who my brother was. This is probably one of the hardest things my family has gone through. He’s not just dependent. […] Invega is a horrible drug. It has ruined so many lives. And I’m sure it’s not the only drug that’s done that. He’s not the only one. #invega” – Kandice
SSRIs are a scam. They barely do anything.
They improve symptoms 50%, compared to 40% from a placebo. And they only boost mood an average ~2 points on a 52-point evaluation (based on meta-analyses of RCTs, the best data we have). You'd get more benefit from a 15-minute walk outside.
But you can get permanent genital numbness and anhedonia from these medications. They destroy lives.
The pharmaceutical industry has been poisoning us over and over, with medication after medication, for generations.
Keto & metabolic therapies are the future of mental illness treatment.
I'm not completely anti-medication. Some can be helpful in certain cases. But these SSRIs are sick and evil.
it's unfair how people who traumatize you get to move on and progress with their life so casually and carefree while you're healing and relearning all the basics just to feel human again
A narcissistic parent will deliberately create obstacles, crises, or vulnerabilities in their child's life—whether emotional, financial, physical, or relational—only so they can step in as the "loving" and "helpful" parent, ensuring the child remains dependent on them while masking their abuse as care.
I’m pretty disappointed that I grew up believing bad people would face consequences for doing terrible things, only to become an adult and realize that bad people literally get away with everything. Sometimes, they even get rewarded for it.
I think you might be better off doing street drugs, rather than psychiatric medication.
Psychiatric medication can do things like permanently castrate you.
I'm in several groups of people with PERMANENT sexual dysfunction caused by an SSRI (#PSSD), and believe me...
there are many one pill or few pills cases.
it's a BIG mistake to think PERMANENT sexual dysfunction is only a risk for long term users...
