Djderek says PSSD went away after SSRI treatment. This was posted here on Surviving Antidepressants in the fall of 2016.
Djderek claims:
“A year ago I came off effexor and Prozac. !! I developed insomnia, obsessive ruminations.. I felt very stressed!! All the time. Then one day I realized… I have no libido!! No sexual or emotional energy. I felt numb!! I tried suicide.. I somehow believed I was damaged. I went downhill fast. I quit my job, lost my fiance. I tried to end my life. I ended up in the psych ward.
Long story short. I met a yogi. I was in a bad place in my head. Non stop ruminations. Chronic disabling insomnia. Complete numbness. I began to meditate and practice yoga. In other words, I gained awareness of my mind, and how it was making me sick. I abstained from masturbation for the past eight months. I’ve mastered my mind. I found God!
Now,just in the past two months, my body has regained it’s natural warmness. I feel once again , Pleasure! My body tingles with sensations in which I thought I’ve lost forever. I started feeling emotional last month . Someone in this movie was crying, and I felt his pain.. And I cried.. My stomach dropped and my breath left me. I let go.
My depression is almost gone too!! I find myself laughing..! Even smiling!! Loving. . feeling peace, at last. I haven’t felt this in years..
When I used to participate in negative conversations, I became consumed with hopelessness. I negative feedback loop if you will. I bought into the idea that I was damned for life. My mind wouldn’t let go of this idea, until I gained awareness of my mind and it’s conditioned cycles of repetitive negative thought. Feeding my depression.
Now, I wake up, spend ten minutes watching what my mind comes up with, and I breath..gently.. And they come and go.. As I’m typing this, I have full bodily sensation. The nerves in my body feel alive.
Much love to everyone!! Never give up!!”
