    In my experience, that is definitely something the doctor tells you. And it is on the paper with all possible side effects.

    Fuck SSRIs

    I’m sorry if you’ve had bad experiences. But honestly, many people are very grateful they exist

      If I had known the risk in 2004, I would have never taken Citalopram. It’s good to see that manufacturers have been adding the info to their leaflets (however obliquely it may be worded) following a 2019 recommendation by EMA.

      But that’s not helping anyone affected by PSSD and honestly, with plenty of other options being available, the medication is just too unsafe to be sold at this point, IMHO.
