Hi, can someone knows a forum for supporting? Have some suicidal thoughts from pssd, need help.
A forum dedicated to collaborative research into PSSD (Post-SSRI Sexual Dysfunction).

Thx bro for reply. I didn't know about pssd until few days ago. I took AD in previous year about 2 months and thought it everything will be ok, it will pass. But I noticed that something was wrong with me, it ruined my relationship, my friendship, I felt that I became indifferent to people, emotionless. And recently I learned about psd, and that it is not treated. it shocked me. I inflicted so much pain on my loved ones, not realizing what was really going on with me. This is terrible. And every day I wake up thinking that the last year and a half have been fake.chemistry wrote: ↑Wed Dec 08, 2021 10:30 pm Hang in there man, its not hopeless. I know It feels like it right now but Ive been around for many years and Ive seen so many cases where people have either had symptomatic relief or got a lot better if not cured. What that means is, its very possible things can get better. Try not to look at it black/white as in pssd/cured. Try to think, if i can make this 50% better could I be happy? Thats a more realistic goal right? Chances are most of us could find a way to be mostly happy with that level of symptomatic improvement.
Main thing though is focus on your mental health, thats the real danger to you right now not your lack of sexual functioning right? Take care of yourself and treat yourself with respect like you would a good friend.
Take care brother im right there with you in this battle you’re not alone
My experience was similar. I didn't know what was going on until much later and when I finally connected the dots I had a full breakdown for weeks. Accept that this is part of the process, this initial shock. It's part of the grieving and accepting of what happened. Try to live your life in a way that allows you to one day come to terms with everything that's happened and then work towards productive ways to make things better for yourself and for those around you and in this community. I understand the feeling of reading there is no treatment etc, but there has been many people who have gotten better either naturally over time or through experimenting with various supplements or drugs. Take care of yourself man, seriously you deserve it. Its not your fault this happened to you.Integra wrote: ↑Thu Dec 09, 2021 3:22 amThx bro for reply. I didn't know about pssd until few days ago.

It's hard to believe that really somehow someone get better or "treated". Besides, only 10 or 20 who got better among thousands...chemistry wrote: ↑Thu Dec 09, 2021 10:08 pmMy experience was similar.

Also, keep in mind - don't compare yourself to other cases no matter how similar they seem. Everyone here is different. There is not point in comparing and saying oh he got better so I will, or he didn't get better so I wont, etc. You are a unique case and we don't know enough about what happened biologically with you to say what will happen. But we do know people have recovered or gotten better, so we know this to be possible. If you ever feel that you have days where things aren't so bad, or you take something and you get a glimpse of normalcy or happiness, that's a good sign that you have the physical/neurological ability to feel this way, and that you are not damaged. You just need to find ways to make it so you feel more normal and more often.
