I know exactly what your going through, and i'm not even acting like I understand. Ever since I was perscribed the drug paxil, I haven't felt the same, I am off the drug yet side effects still persist.I have anhedonia, slow thinking, problems expressing myself, problems speaking , personality gone.
I'm not the same person I use to be, I can't even seem to have a conversation anymore.
It seems if I stop taking an SSRI (im on prozac right now) all of the symptoms I listed above get worse, ( I can't speak clearly, or express myself at all without SSRI's , I don't know why.)
So it looks like i'm on these drugs for life.
It's a bitch to explain, this situation to people, noone understands because not many people have these kind of problems with meds. And when I tell people about how meds screwed me up, we end up getting in an argument about why that couldn't be happen, or it's because im a little depressed. They're not in my position, I deal with this stuff first hand, I know what's effecting me and what's not.
Noone quite understands why I don't go out anymore, Noone understands why I stopped working out. I use to play basketball for hours and hours on end, I have no desire for anything anymore.
I use to have passion, goals, motivations, I use to be someone, that has been all vicsiously stripped from me.
I've been from doctor to doctor, experimented with reason after reason as to why i'm going through this and it all comes back to the drugs, I have considered all possibilities, and only one remains.
If you want to correspond further email me at xxx I think Dr. Bob is going to revoke this names posting priveleges eventually because on one of the other accounts I spelt a word wrong or something, and he banned me. So ever since I have been making new accounts , not to bypass the ban, but because I forget my username info, and when he finds me making new ones the ban is extended. It's not my fault. It may seem coincidental but the day I got banned is the day I reformated my computer.

KNow what you're saying mike. Off SSRI's 5 months and life just ain't the same. Not just mood, but everything comes crashing down. One's whole world. Can't even walk straight anymore. Permanant dystonias
I'd only I had known before taking these pills, what neurological disasters would await me, I might have reconsider.

Hi Snapper,
Why are you replacing Valium with Klonopin?

Hi Mike,
Is it Mike13?
Have you tried tapering off the Prozac very gradually?? - using the Prozac liquid and an oral syringe to measure the dose. You could try decreasing the dose by 2mg every 4 weeks.
