Its weird that this story came out more than a year ago and nobody has given it a try. Might be worth it.
A guy in the whatsapp group has now been using it for 2 weeks straight. Some benefits but nothing special yet.

And yes gut problems can be the key for depression, anxiety and sexual dysfunction.
I think so too.

I've had gut problems since forever.. I think is probably anxiety..
But serotonin and dopamine (if one goes with this hypothesis) seem linked to the gut for sure..
When one is too constipated I think is when one feels more depressed or vice versa. Thus, according to this hypothesis, diarrhea means less depression! As funny as it may sound.

I have no idea how to fix gut problems. Anyone knows?

It also makes sense since of anyone here is familiar with the late Kurt Cobain, he complained of stomach problems and well.. seems to me he had "the blues".. .I think his stomach problems and depression were linked.

Anxiety and burping too much, for example.. I'd say most likely related.

I don't believe in that bacteria bullshit.
Why people cured by so many different substances then? How can low dose SSRI or any other chemical medication curing the gut bacteria?
I took myself tons of probiotics and eat healthy over a long timeover a long time, nothing...
June 2015 - April 2016 Fluoxetine
April 2016 - March 2017 Fluvoxamine
December 2017 9 days Trazodone
After Trazodone PSSD: loss of libido & spontaneous/night/morning erections, prostate/pelvic pain, genital numbness, lower sperm count, Anhedonia

I thought this for a long time, but some interesting studies linked in the Nystatin thread suggest that it increases nitric oxide and has sertonegenic (5ht1a) activity, so not purely 'bacteria shit' - lots of interesting PSSD links :)

Probably your anxiety is caused by your gut problems.

Hello,
I am participating in this forum for the first time because I find this thread very interesting. I just want to know if there is a possibility that people who experienced sexual dysfunction and other symptoms of autonomic disruption from a very short exposure (5 days of Zoloft/Sertraline 50mg in my case) might be struggling with permenant microbiome alterations? (Is there a method to determine whether the change is permenant or modifiable?)
I would love to find out more to restore my microbiome to its previous state.
I have struggled with bowel incontinence shortly after I started the medicine (acute phase), but that went away fairly quickly and surprisingly I am not having any constipation or diarrhoea the same way I used to before the medicine. However, lately I had another brief episode of incontinence that also went away quickly. I don't feel like the drug wrecked my gastrointestinal system that drastically. Sometimes I even think it was the only benefit of starting this poison (don't feel any pain or have constipation/diarrhoea). Anyone that has a similar experience and pursued the microbiome restoration route please share.

The lastest update from Ape is his suicide which he committed in the last year's January. Rest in peace.

I have performed 6 Fecal Matter transplants on myself - coming from two different donors: 3 with my best friend and 3 with my current girlfriend. I did not have gut issues before, but thought this was worth trying as a sort of "systemic cure".

Still have PSSD. Not sure it improved anything. Might have improved significantly my immune system, but might have made me more antisocial. Its not exactly an exact science...

Anybody who claims to be cured by fecal transplant must be literally full of shit...
