A growing number of people end up with persisting and possibly irreversible cognitive, emotional and sexual symptoms after treatment with #SSRIs. This syndrome (#PSSD) feels as if the CNS and PNS have become dysfunctional. We renew our call for help for the next year. (1/3)
Can We Please Stop Bullshitting Patients With Post-SSRI Sexual Dysfunction? psychiatrymargins.com/p/can-we-pleas…
Remarkable milestone: r/PSSD has surpassed 10,000 members on @Reddit, underscoring the urgent need for the medical community to recognize Post-SSRI Sexual Dysfunction (#PSSD). With minimal help from medical professionals, patients have turned to online communities for answers.
Finland’s largest newspaper, @hsfi, recently published a great article on #PSSD by @sinisaaritsa A special thanks to the experts from Finland and elsewhere who contributed;🇫🇮Erkki Isometsä, 🇫🇮Risto O. Roine, 🇫🇮@JuhanaPiha, 🇺🇸@abcsoka and 🇮🇪@DrDavidHealy x.com/hsfi/status/17…

Good to see the NYT covering PSSD. Disappointing to see a psychiatric spokesperson dismissing it, especially as it is now widely recognised and increasingly researched in other areas (eg urology, neurology) @PSSDNetwork @RxISK nytimes.com/2023/11/09/hea…
Dr. Roberto Melcangi recently published a paper entitled “POST-FINASTERIDE SYNDROME AND POST-SSRI SEXUAL DYSFUNCTION: TWO CLINICAL CONDITIONS APPARENTLY DISTANT, BUT VERY CLOSE” in the journal 𝐹𝑟𝑜𝑛𝑡𝑖𝑒𝑟𝑠 𝑖𝑛 𝑁𝑒𝑢𝑟𝑜𝑒𝑛𝑑𝑜𝑐𝑟𝑖𝑛𝑜𝑙𝑜𝑔𝑦. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
Some patients are speaking up about lasting sexual problems after stopping antidepressants, a poorly understood condition. st.news/469bHtl
The New York Times (@nytimes) has just released an article that describes #PSSD and makes reference to our organization and the broader community. Many thanks to Azeen Ghorayshi (@azeen) for her contribution in bringing PSSD to public attention. nytimes.com/2023/11/09/hea…
"We have doctors who have PSSD, who can't be doctors because they can't function." #PSSD often affects more than just sexual function. Top sexual medicine doctor, Irwin Goldstein, discusses the emotional and cognitive symptoms of PSSD that he has had patients describe to him.
There are also academic studies in animals, which provide evidence of #SSRI induced damage to the smooth muscle of the penis. Top sexual medicine doctor, Irwin Goldstein, discusses these studies and gives a likely biological mechanism for the damage observed in #PSSD patients.
Antidepressants can lead to physical changes in the genitals. Dr. Ahad Waraich, through the use of ultrasounds, has detected penile scarring (fibrosis) in young men experiencing #PSSD. The penile tissue of young PSSD patients usually resembles that of an 80-year-old person.
In episode 106 of the Radically Genuine Podcast, @wdpsychiatry tells @DrMcFillin the possibility of #PSSD changed his view of certain antidepressants. He would almost never prescribe drugs that can cause the condition. You can watch the full podcast here: radicallygenuinepodcast.transistor.fm/106
On @awakepod registered psychotherapist, Malini Ondrovcik🇨🇦, reflects on #PSSD sufferers being discredited by medical doctors. Patients are then "dumped on psychologists and psychotherapists." Watch the full interview with @docamitay: youtube.com/watch?v=jl49Cm…
No one seems to be talking about the permanent side effects of a drug that is being prescribed to teenagers, even 12-year-olds.
Thank you, @michaeljknowles, for mentioning #PSSD on your show and featuring our explainer video. The @US_FDA still does not acknowledge the fact that sexual side effects can persist after discontinuing #SRI medication, despite @EMA_News and @GovCanHealth doing so.
Might our pandemic of sexual dysfunction have something to do with the strange phenomenon that 1 in 8 Americans regularly takes SSRI drugs, which can permanently disorder users' sexuality? How is virtually no one talking about this? pssdnetwork.org
Have you ever heard of PSSD? Don't worry most people haven't. But 8 million people in the UK alone are on anti-depressants and can develop this devastating complication. Listen to this podcast with @PSSDNetwork docmalik.com/episodes/liste…
🆕Long-lasting sexual dysfunction after taking antidepressants: Lack of recognition harmful to patients🆕 A new opinion piece featured on the #pslhub today⬇️ pslhub.org/learn/improvin… #PSSD #patientsafety @PSSDNetwork @RxISK
Today is #WorldPatientSafetyDay. Currently, there is no way to gauge an individual’s risk of developing #PSSD from SRIs. @wdpsychiatry explains why in his interview with @sometherapist More should be done to mitigate this risk and improve informed consent.

"If I was properly informed, I would have never taken these pills." At 19, Payton developed mild #PSSD from taking #Lexapro (#escitalopram) Believing his symptoms were from depression, he sought help and was prescribed Zoloft, which resulted in full-blown PSSD Read his story👇
