Malu Three years of PSSD since everything was taken from me too. just hear to say i know what you’re fighting every day. It’s a battle to survive with something as inhumane as this.

That Terf Though 💚🩶🐙 It was added to the drug information leaflet only because patients with PSSD campaigned like hell to have the condition recognised. One in seven people in the UK takes an antidepressant and I think the vast majority of them will be getting a nasty shock when they realise they're

One of the biggest realisations I had after developing PSSD, was that there is nobody collecting data about treatment emergent side-effects persisting after discontinuing the medications, and no laws requiring that this data must be collected.

PSSD is very real. Been struggling for 7+ years. I am a FNP/PMHNP. Doctors do not dismiss me probably because of my background, however most are not aware and have no answers.

ATTENTION: this is unacceptable that there's only 70 comments on this petition to the FDA about antidepressant risks. Where is everyone?? People always say "it's so wrong, no one does anything!" Well, here's the chance to DO SOMETHING and be a part of history in updating these

I just woke up in the middle of the night and was hit by the realisation what was done to me. After three years of severe PSSD with zero sexuality, a numb clitoris and extreme flat emotions I still feel assaulted and violated by psychiatry. I wish it was only a bad dream.

Influencers need to stop reducing PFS/PSSD to “just take DHT or testosterone.” If it were that simple, these communities wouldn’t exist. Many have tried and failed. These are complex, poorly understood conditions. We need research; not arrogant oversimplifications.

Highlights of the report 🧵: -A significant majority of survey participants (79%) described their sexual difficulties as both persistent and distressing. At the time of the survey, 90% had ceased antidepressant use, averaging 3 years since their last dose and an average duration
