PSSD: A Hidden Epidemic? | Awake at the Wheel | Ruben & Simon from PSSD Network | Ep 31

from Awake at the Wheel · host Dr Oren Amitay and Malini Ondrovcik

What if the antidepressants, the very pills meant to be your lifeline, turned out to be the source of your suffering instead? Today, Malini and Oren engage in a conversation with two distinguished guests: Ruben, the founder of PSSD Network, and Simon, the head of PSSD Network UK, a nonprofit organization committed to shedding light on and fostering a supportive community for survivors of PSSD, or Post-SSRI Sexual Dysfunction. Tune in to hear Simon's poignant narrative, as he candidly shares his experience of feeling chemically castrated and emotionally numbed after a decade-long journey with SSRIs and SNRIs. Discover how these debilitating symptoms not only persisted but exacerbated even after he tapered off the antidepressants.PSSD Network is a non-profit charity organization based in Australia, led by PSSD patients and their loved ones.https://www.pssdnetwork.orghttps://twitter.com/PSSDNetworkFollow Simon on X: https://twitter.com/PSSDSimonWe want your questions!
