>>6429907I've been on SSRIs for the last 4 years and they definitely do have side-effects. Alcohol effects me more easily and even a tiny amount gives me wicked hangovers. I'm going to need dental work because I've worn my teeth down from grinding them in my sleep. I do feel a bit cut-off from my emotions. Jerking off is harder and orgasms feel a bit weird. These are all know side-effects of SSRIs. The worst part is that the pills don't work as well as they used to but I'm still left with all the side-effects.
Having said all that, going on pills might still have been a good idea. Before them I was completely dysfunctional, unable to sleep, constantly skipping work, constantly believed everything was much harder than it really was. The pills fix that, for a few years at least.
