If it is benzos like Midazolam, Lorazepam, diazepam or even Propofol it may, because they work through gaba receptors like Phenibut. Ketamine only may be safe. But I think they will include some form of benzo.

I got surgery literally last week for a broken thumb, I got put under general anesthesia and it didn’t effect my symptoms at all.

Guys, you are exaggerating.
I think the next level would be "I took a painkiller last week will it give me PSSD?"

Lmfao yeah I see what you mean.

However...

Tramadol, the pain med I was prescribed is technically an SNRI! It’s actually been used as a treatment for premature ejaculation with some success.

While it’s effects on serotonin and noriphenephrine are obviously not it’s main effect it might in very very very very rare cases cause lingering sexual sides although the medication is used for such a short amount of time and actually has a very low incidence of any sexual effects at all, it might hypothetically in a hyper hyper hyper sensitive individual trigger something bad.

Like one in a million chance probably.

Probably at the very bottom of meds likely to cause PSSD far below the real antidepressants, or even stuff like mdma and 5-htp supplements.

Don't be ridiculous, I know PSSD made us suspicious about drugs, but cmon.

I think this might have actually happened to me. I took tramadol and had an overdose over three months ago and have had symptoms of PSSD ever since.
