The guardian - my life in sex
The guardian - my life in sex
The guardian share a short and insightful piece each week about a reader's sex life. Different topics covered each time, for example: https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyl ... ex-new-mum
It could be a good chance for us to try and share the PSSD story - I imagine it's something they'd go for given the different topics explored. Who is eloquent enough to be able to put something together?

I have submitted my story, fingers crossed. For those not in the UK - the guardian is one of the biggest and most well respected newspapers in the country.
Re: The guardian - my life in sex
Great news - the journalist has contacted me today and said she would like to publish my story!!! I'm just providing her with further details she's asked for.
If/when it does golive, I'll share the link and would encourage you all to comment on the story for added impact, info and visibility

Re: The guardian - my life in sex
Awesome news! Let's not swamp them with emails now just in case it looks like a coordinated attack lol, if the Guardian publishes a story on PSSD that's huge
PSSD Since March 2016 after 4 weeks on Sertraline
Conditioned worsened and peaked in April, since then possibly seen a 20% improvement
Would be useful for data collection if people could add their histories in their signature

Re: The guardian - my life in sex
Aida Edemariam published an article on The Guardian in May 2017 that touch on PSSD here's an excerpt:
https://www.theguardian.com/society/201 ... g-term-useMany SSRI users report blunted emotions, even long after they have ceased taking pills, and an impact on sexual function. “They should be called anti-sex drugs rather than antidepressant drugs,” says Jon Jureidini, a child psychiatrist of 30 years’ standing, a professor of psychiatry and paediatrics at the University of Adelaide and co-author of the BMJ study, “It’s more reliably predictable that they’re going to get rid of sexual function than it is that they’re going to get rid of depression.” Again, some people find this persists long after they cease taking the drug. One person I spoke to, Kevin, had taken Prozac for six months when he was 18; now 38, he hasn’t had an erection since.

Yes guys no need to email - she is happy with my story and I’m just tidying it up and answering a few questions she has. They’re more interested in a female story - it’s more press friendly but I have mentioned that many men are sufferers too. I’ll keep you all posted
Re: The guardian - my life in sex
Thanks for this!
