    I'm 22 years old. My life is destroyed after taking SSRI. I got permanent eye floaters, severe brain fog, memory problems, 0 concentration, can't sleep for more than 2 hours, can't eat, abdominal pain, mild pain all over the body, fatigue, heart palpitations and massive sudden panic attacks. Everyday is full of suffering and finding ways to survive. I can't go on living like this. I'm living in hell.

      Hi buddy🤗. I'm sorry for what you're going through. I can relate with your story. So, I took close to 7 antidepressants and suffer from most of your above mentioned side effects, however, cognitive impairment and sexual dysfunction are the most pronounced and devastating side effects. So, I have PSSD.
      Late last year, I had to drop out of college and decided to quit psychiatric drugs. I then went on to experience very horrific withdrawal symptoms, thereby leading to my suicide attempt. Talking about your life being ruined? Well, I concur because I'm currently not working and living on disability at age 25, which is a different plot twist from what I expected at this age and due to my ongoing sexual dysfunction, I've given up on marriage as a possibility. I haven't fully recovered but I must say that there's 0.0001 improvement after close to 10 months. I don't know for how long have you been suffering, however I'm very empathetic towards you🤗❤️
      I must say that what we're going through really sucks. However, what has been helpful for me is acceptance. As hard as it is, I think we should come to terms with what has happened to us and expound our little mental resources we have left on things that we can change more than the iatrogenic harm that we have to endure daily. With my cognitive impairment, I'm learning day by day to live with it because there is no alternative, matter of fact I think the alternative is a killer. As it stands, I no longer see my withdrawal symptoms/side effects as hindrance but as a way my body is repairing itself from the damage caused by antidepressants. And for this reason, a little patience and time are definitely needed for the body to fix itself even though there aren't any guarantees. So by accepting our injury, I think we've won half of the battle!❤️‍🩹🤕
      Keep fighting buddy and you should definitely credit yourself for sticking around for so long. My heart and prayers to your direction🫶🏼
      P. S. : Sorry for the long reply

      @@iamapropeciabox, listen here Prophylactic, if you didn't suffer life-changing side effects, consider yourself lucky. So why do you feel the need to pick on people that have? Are you that weak that you get something out of that? Why don't you just go on your way and enjoy your hair (as if that isn't a weak view of life)? Really, I'd be interested to hear why you think it appropriate to pick on those suffering from PFS.

It’d be a shame if Universal Studios discovered one of their employees picks on sick people online… I’m sure they wouldn’t take too kindly to that. Oh, now that I think about it, I have a pretty good relationship with Gene (senior executive) at Universal. You’d be amazed at how easy it is to link someone’s identity to their RUclips account. I'm gonna have Gene do a screening of his CGI artists since one of them obviously finds it appropriate to pick on sick people online. Knowing him, he’s not gonna take too kindly to this. Enjoy your job....for now.
