Guest guest Posted August 15, 2010 Report Share Posted August 15, 2010 I got this from my PSSD site recently which puts this whole antidepressant thing in a nutshell: Now, reading just a small bit of the posts on that thread it seems that all these people have significant others who go on SSRI's and then lose their real selves however they all insist that they are fine and that this is their real self, they don't even miss their former identities. So how about everyone here? When you were on SSRI's/SNRI's did you feel this was your 'authentic self?' I had a great time in the few months that I took them, but I knew this wasn't my true self. I felt a little bit drunk and in a dream all the time. Also, since I was no longer depressed l actually became more interested in things outside of myself, such as Bulfinch's Mythology and geography. I was very ambitious during this time because it felt like a break and I knew that it was a temporary thing. But after realizing what the cost was, after quitting, I have never really recovered (emotionally) and I have never considered taking them again. The drugs from hell, and good riddance to the things.
