Guest guest Posted June 10, 2008 Report Share Posted June 10, 2008 I feel stuck in a permanent funk. Everything seems meaningless and boring. Not much excites me anymore. I want to get involved in things but when you feel completely drained physically and mentally it's pointless. My motivation is non-existent I've been abusing pain killers to fill this void. A temporary state of chemically inspired happiness is justified in this permanent nightmare. I'm not depressed, I am just emotionally blunted. The pleasure center of my brain is not working right. Everything is dull, and mediocre at best. If my libido and erections came back tomorrow, would my life be much better? Not really. I'd still be in this joyless, drained, state. SSRI's truly are poison. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 10, 2008 Report Share Posted June 10, 2008 I feel EXACTLY like you do! I find that the non-sexual effects of this condition are even worse than the sexual ones. As I have said before, sex and sexuality are only one part of life. Some of the people who have this condition are "lucky", and it doesn't seem to effect their emotions and perceptions that much. They remain themselves, just with a possibly permanent sexual dysfunction. But in the case of you, I, and many others, the damage seems to be to the whole seritonergic system of our brains. SSRI's are poisons, and the drug companies should be brought to justice for crimes against humanity. I know that they sure raped mine! Vote for your city's best dining and nightlife.

Yet for some reason I just continue to do all sorts of activities. However, I definitley do not get the pleasure out of the activities that I'm sure I would before entering psychiatric care. But at this point my mind has been damaged for so long that its nearly impossible to recall what " normal " ever felt like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
