Life destroyed by antidepressants - please help me

[conscious9]

There is a cure for everything. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. I have overcome physical and mental maladies with an assortment of novel alternative supplements and treatments. There is no one way to go about anything. If one things fails, try another.

I cured my neuritis using homeopathics and supplements, and it was so bad to the point that I had nerve pain in my privates, my scalp, my gums, my chest, etc. The lightest sense of touch that people would not normally notice would cause me extreme pain. I was able to deduce this was an issue due to my myelin sheaths not working properly.

Oh, and I had hyperacusis as well before that. Extreme ear pain.

Whatever physical damage you have is repairable. Honestly, my problem has always been moreso a lack of money, and not a lack of research. Otherwise, my health would have already been at peak condition for many years.

I hope to one day be able to afford to spend several thousand dollars on supplements a month. Many of the newer more novel ones are very expensive, as are frequency healing machines.

It might sound crazy but have you tried DMT? Or Psylocibin? At least LSD....

 

[Megaverse]

Interesting thread.
OP, I dont think it's fair to put the blame on drs. They judge the benefit greater than the risk before prescribing it for you. Unfortunately, you were among the few who developed adverse effect. I was prescribed Fluoxetine and I took if for a while before stopping it against the advise of my dr. It did helped me but I had done my research and concluded it's a temporary fix.

I'm interested to know more about this issue it seems like mordern medicine is not capable of providing solution.
They calls it auto immuned issues I think...

Not a good idea. I’m totally pro-psychedelic, but it’s not a cure-all like everyone likes to promote them as. I have a good friend who is very mentally messed up and depressed, and tripping a lot didn’t help him one bit.

Heck, come to think of it, it hasn’t helped me yet either.

Multiple Sclerosis?

Multiple Sclerosis?

That can and has most definitely been cured. But no, my particular case was caused after I used something called DMSO on my scalp. I had a rare reaction, which caused me nerve pain all over my body.

MS is caused by a virus, from what I can recall. I have a list of supplements and treatments noted that can specifically target repair of nerves regardless of what’s causing it, though.

Mate did u try psychotherapy and which forms ? 90% of this things happen due to psychic conditions . u mentioned that u had stress and used antidepressants which suppress the problem further much and giving a temporary relief like a drug . U need experiential psychotherapy and your body will be back to normal cause root causes will be solved

 

[Shubhankar Paranjape]

Have you ever heard a concept called "Epigenetics" ? Dig it up, understand what it means, read articles or watch videos on it deeply. It won't cost you anything, and I'm sure you'll be able to help yourself. Sorry for what you went through at such a young age, btw. Hope it sorts out soon.

Could be kind enough to PM me the list?
I would greatly appreciate it.
Thank you.

IMO this is a serious issue and it is definitely worth raising awareness.

It's not just about an individual, many people can be potentially affected.

Things like insomnia and depression don't develop by accident, if we are talking about a person who is healthy in general. It's a sign that you need to change something.

Tried watching Porn?

Hi,
First of all shoot me PM if you need more info.
Note: I was depressed but never on anti depressants or other medications.

Listen my friend, there is cure for everything. Low libido, depression, anxiety etc. I lived through it all.
You need to research by yourself but here's what you need to get yourself out of this rut:
First you have to suffer alot and stop the medications.

-Ayahuasca (but have to give up on the meds)
-Semen Retention
-Ayurvedic diet

I transformed my life completely with these main 3 things.

 

[bartosimpsonio]

20 pushups

Breathe

20 more pushups

Breathe

20 more pushups

Breathe

Do this 100x and your depression will go away,

 

[Monzani]

I'm also 23y and have been using antidepressants for some months, my libido is close to zero, nothing interests me and I'm indifferent to anything...I have depression and panic disorder...it's hard, mate

 

[kennyx]

That sounds awful.

Don't give up hope.

In my opinion, what you're doing is noble and will feel somewhat satisfying but I think it will prevent you from ever recovering.

The only way you'll recover is if you are just so busy with other things that you don't have the time or the mental capacity to think about it. If your mission is spreading awareness of it, you will always be thinking about it so it'll be impossible to move on.

Thank you, Anhedonia itself makes it hard to focus on anything, I even am weaker in gym etc. its 24/7 hell.

For many diseases there is no cure. Especially neurological ones..

Yeah, all of them, in fact I lost response to them. I ingested huge doses and got barely any reaction, seems like my neurons or 5ht2a receptors dont work somehow.

Yeah, doctors are misinformed mostly.

Yes, my problems aren't psychological now though. They were before, now I have a neuro-endocrine disaster.

Yeah, this is where the root of this problem lies probably. Just impossible to reverse. There was a study where many genes were hyper/hypomethylated from citalopram, how do you reverse hundreds of changed genes in different tissues in different regions of the body?

I agree, I fucked up by not changing anything and taking the stupid pills. I'm trying to raise awareness but its hard. Do you have any idea how I could accelerate this?

Thanks, this is something I actually want to try, I tried DMT itself, but Ayahuasca has does more than DMT, it also upregulates the serotonin transporter etc.. because of the MAOis in it.

Hi guys, I'm a member of 7 years here. I've been inactive quite a while here, something very tragic happened to me over 1.5 years ago.

After work related stress and insomnia I got prescribed Trazodone and later Venlafaxine, an antidepressant to help me sleep better. After a few pills I had an adverse reaction and was left mentally disabled with permanent sexual dysfunction and chronic fatigue. This is called PSSD (Post-SSRI-Sexual-Dysfunction). Althought his is quite rare, it happens. No doctor could ever help me, they mostly do not know about it or deny this could happen, and research or a cure is years (if not decades) away.

I am left with chronic anhedonia, unable to enjoy anything, I can barely watch TV, not engage in conversations, my mind and thoughts are blocked. Before this I was working as a software developer and had a side business and it completely destroyed my life. I tried many many therapies and supplements and nothing ever gave me relief.

Something very similiar happens in the Post-Finasteride-Syndrome, caused by the hair loss pill Finasteride, many suicides were caused by this condition.

Since this happened to me I've been using my left over brain power to think about ways to potentially gain more visibility for these issues. I thought I have been doing alot of SEO in the past, and remembered my account on BHW.

Im my opinion this is a crime against humanity, doctors destroy lifes with their prescriptions, and pharmaceutical companies are very aware of these side effects yet do not warn about it on the label of their drugs.

Please, if you have any idea how you can help me (SEO, strategies, viral strategies, etc).. let me know.

I thought I could SEO the rxisk.org site, which is fighting for awareness, there is even a $100k price for whoever finds the cure for this life disabling condition. It is currently ranking on page 2 and page 4 for keywords like "antidepressant side effects", "antidepressant sexual dysfunction".

There is also youtube videos like this, that need FAR MORE attention, please let me know if you have any idea how I can spread this on the internet.

I used GSA SER in the past, I thought about doing a generic comment blast about PSSD / PFS across the internet, im not sure how effective that would be though.

If you can help me in any way, please let me know.. I'm in complete hell for 1.5 years already, I am 23 years old and my future was destroyed, im left as an asexual castrated zombie, justice needs to be served..

By reading few snippets of your post.
I think you need a love partner or a friend who can take all headaches and responsibilities of you. Who can take care of you.
First I think before thinking about work responsibilities I think you need to better take care of your health in a peaceful environment.
As some passage of time, Once u feel well, relaxed and comfortable then think of anything else.

 

[Worrior]

Really sad to know about your pain at this age.
You still have long life to go.
Don't loose hope and keep trying everything possible.

Remember its not any disease what will kill you but loosing hope will sure.

May god help you to get out of this pain soon

 

[ziko12345]

An answer to your title. I have also have been dealing with depression. I never went to the doctor and get a full diagnose but i basically had no reason to live and didnt care if i died. I think there was a time i went crazy. Anyway i just started meditating and stuff. Im not a religeous person whatsoever but i do believe on god with my heart. Soi think you should find something to believe in too.
Good luck

I don't mean to be rude to other posters in this thread, but that'd be very appreciated if people could refrain to type down their "idea" on how to cure PSSD/PFS/PAS, just as if it was the same as typing down ideas on how to make money online.

Lives are being destroyed with these drugs, and recovering from these conditions is a fight that requires a tremendous amount of research, test, and discipline. Money, too. There's a consensus that has been established over the years regarding what helps people recover, and what is the common denominator when people recover (and that happens very rarely, for the reasons mentioned above)
Moreover, what works for one does not necessarily work for others. That's the trickiest part with these syndromes. There's also most of the times trade-offs to be made, trying something could yield improvements in one's condition but could worsen it too.
Again, researching, testing, and applying protocols and testing and reapplying, and so on and so forth, is the solution here

If you're not familiar with this place, I urgently advise you to visit the "Post finasteride syndrome" subpart of the forum swolesource (dot) com.
There's a program called "Cdnuts" protocol, that I would suggest you research, as it is the protocol that yielded the best results these past years, to cure PFS, which is very similar, as you already know, to PSSD.

You would have guessed, I too am a victim of these drugs, one in particular, and I too developed all of the side effects these drugs could cause, emotionally, physically, everything. I'm not cured yet, but I have made amazing progress following Cdnuts protocol, as well as different other things I experimented with, and keep experimenting with. I don't want to disclose too much as it's not necessary here.
I have (almost) every recovery stories ever shared on the internet for PFS/PSSD/PAS saved in a list.


The forum propeciahelp, though very involved in trying to find a cure through collecting data and supporting studies, is usually filled with negativity. If you're unstable emotionally, please refrain from reading all of the horror stories there is over there.
If you still want to join this forum, I suggest you only read the threads talking about recovered members, or people making progress.

Good luck.

Thank you, I am in a safe spot, however I've been trying to fix this shit for over a year now and every day is just more hopelessness. I want to rank the rxisk page which is run by an actual Psychiatrists.

Good idea that you didn't go to a doctor. In my case the doctor killed me, after I got prescribed this shit after 5mins, and was so naive to take it. Therapy would have been right for my issues.
