@pssdvictim

I'm a PhD candidate in mechanical engineering at a well known university in Canada. I have had PSSD since discontinuing Prozac in November of 2015.

My experience with antidepressants was disastrous. I put on an insane amount of weight, I couldn’t feel anything, and I was too unmotivated to do any of the work I actually needed to do in therapy. Would rather Minecraft myself than go back.

Did you know that some people experience permanent or very long term sexual dysfunction and infertility after taking SSRI medications like Prozac? This has been reported in people who have only taken it for a very short amount of time. Days to weeks. They obviously don't warn

I am one of them! My country has absolutely no respect or regard for it's graduate students, researchers, scientists, and engineers. There is a complete disconnect here now for the cost of housing and grad student stipends. This has impacted my well being almost as much as #PSSD.

Challenge! Use DALL E (or a similar AI image generation platform) to create an effective and shocking poster for raising PSSD awareness. My first attempt

Challenge! Use DALL E (or a similar AI image generation platform) to create an effective and shocking poster for raising PSSD awareness. My second attempt this time in black and white so it can be printed and posted ;) QR code links straight to PSSDNetwork.org

Some #PSSD art from another round of my experimenting with AI image generators. Since #PSSD, every walk down a busy street at 4 pm has felt like a walk down an empty street at 4 am. The isolation is very real. Every day you get out of bed is an act of fortitude and conviction .

Might our pandemic of sexual dysfunction have something to do with the strange phenomenon that 1 in 8 Americans regularly takes SSRI drugs, which can permanently disorder users' sexuality? How is virtually no one talking about this? pssdnetwork.org

God. Yet another one. I try to block out thoughts of it to get by day to day but sometimes it hits me all over again. It’s unfathomable that this is happening to people. That this happened to us. #PSSD
