I’ve given up hope. I had a terrible reaction to fluoxetine and am left with sexual dysfunction (erectile dysfunction, genital numbness,pleasureless orgasms) and anhedonia. I initially had akathisia but thankfully that passed and went away. I don’t think I’ll ever have my sexual functioning back or the ability to feel pleasure from things I used to anymore.
The amount of damage psychiatry and bad psychologists (psychiatry usual accomplice in crime) did to my life is beyond measuring. And beyond believing. I have many more new trauma instead of solving or finding relief from previous trauma. Think Christopher Walken on The deer hunter. The so called mental health professionals leave a trail of empty shells of persons instead of helping. We live in health / medicine stone age and mental health is even worse. Best wishes.
_Let’s get rid of this terrible disease for us all once and for all_ They make millions with psychiatry and all the drugs. It is going to be a extremely difficult battle. They have almost infinite billions to fight. They regularly spend billions in marketing and most people is, sadly, indoctrinated by the lies they say. Best wishes.
This is called an iatrogenic problem. Not a disease. This is a medically caused physical huge problem. This is such a nice person. Such a normal great guy. And this drug is pharmacological sexual assault on this great guy with his entire life ahead of him. What a courageous guy to help us beware of what can happen. To protect us. Thank you to him. A really great person to share this. For us.

These evil damaging drugs cause dry mouth when on the drug, very known adverse effect. It's on the drug leaflet. As you lose the protective effect saliva, cavities prosper a lot. And your teeth rot. Psychiatrists should know. Which is what you suppose when you deposit your trust on one of these health destroyers in a moment of need. At least you are showing a little humility and ask the victims. Best wishes.
Thank you. I would like to address this very issue with my significant other and right now I’m just trying to figure out how to introduce this topic. This is so helpful. Thank you 😊
Cyproheptadine messes with serotonin, it lowers serotonin. It has a giant adverse effect list. I would stay very far away from this drug. Why are you asking? Best wishes.
Having penetrating sex with genital numbness is the same as putting on a strap-on and having sex. In both cases you don't feel nothing, just a foreign object down there doing some motions.
Nobody tried 30 days fasting that I know. Who knows if it helps. Most desperate damaged by drugs communities members try a lot of drugs and/or diet supplements. Many of them have little effect on some, and cause worsening of symptoms on others. Why do you think 30 days fasting would help? Best wishes.
Do you believe Allopregnanolone could be the cure? Roberto Melcangi has suggested this as a cure but can it reverse genital numbness , anhedonia and all aspects?
Maybe I'm just very tolerant but I've never gotten withdrawal, needed to taper or had any of these scary side effects having taken 5 different anti depressants over 6 years
Thank you Simon and Dr Josef for this interview. Living with PSSD is horrible, and we need more awareness.

How long have you had this injury from meds?
@@martinez4560 I don’t really think it’s an injury but a year and a half.
@@user-sf3qr6jt9j I hope little by little things start to get back to normal for you 🙏🏻
@@user-sf3qr6jt9j sorry one more question, how long did you akathisia for. I’m in the same situation. Thanks
Thanks Dr. Witt-Doerring for airing another PSSD story, and thanks Simon for explaining your tale with such clarity.
Thank you to Simon for coming forward and Dr. Witt-Doerring for using his platform to raise awareness. We need as many eyes on this issue as possible.
Big thanks to you Simon for your testimony and thanks Witt-Doerring Psychiatry to makes theses interviews

Yes! The driving in silence!! I've experienced this in polypharmacy withdrawal myself.
This is so refreshing to hear. Thanks for doing these interviews. We all deserve informed consent.

Just checking in to give this a like and a comment in hopes that the TH-cam algorithms move these videos up
Thanks on this videos but unfortunately no solutions for treatment this condition 😢
I'm so glad we are starting to gain more coverage on this disease. This is criminal!!
Thanks doctor!
These goddamn drugs the doctor gave me as if they were prescribing candy, fuck the sertraline, it ruined my life.
Thank you. I would like to address this very issue with my significant other and right now I’m just trying to figure out how to introduce this topic. This is so helpful. Thank you 😊
Never knew Keanu Reeves became a psychiatrist...
Can any one tell me about the medications being researched or on the horizon Simon speaks of that are in the trail phase at present which may help?
Dr, have you heard of ppl treating with cyproheptadine. What do you think of this as a treatment?
Cyproheptadine messes with serotonin, it lowers serotonin.
It has a giant adverse effect list.
I would stay very far away from this drug.
Why are you asking?
Best wishes.
Why would more pills help with something pills caused?
Having penetrating sex with genital numbness is the same as putting on a strap-on and having sex. In both cases you don't feel nothing, just a foreign object down there doing some motions.
I was thinking about doing psychiatry residency and seeing all this videos I am not sure I want that anymore haha
So many people get their lives ruined because of trusting psychiatry.
Can someone please tell me the link between pssd and emotional blunting. What has sexual dysfunction have anything to do with emotions?
I have both, off SSRI after long term use. Dont know. Have something to do with blunting.
What about fasting for 30 days
And dying a slow and painful death?

Allopregnanolone. The neurosteroids are missing
Do you believe Allopregnanolone could be the cure? Roberto Melcangi has suggested this as a cure but can it reverse genital numbness , anhedonia and all aspects?
Has anyone tried dietary changes ? Keto or carnivore - fat is so good for baby brains and b vitamins for nerves.
Maybe I'm just very tolerant but I've never gotten withdrawal, needed to taper or had any of these scary side effects having taken 5 different anti depressants over 6 years
Long term use of these drugs causes disasters
@@Dabne5587 Not for everyone. I take my prescribed amphetamine and it's fine, it depends on the person and situation
