Informed consent

Hello, I was wondering if anyone here knew about any of the risks before taking an SSRI. My psychiatrist talked up the benefits of SSRIs and did not mention a single risk before asking for my consent.

Re: Pain or over sensitivity in genitals

For me it is overly sensitive glans. I wonder if it is because I have soft glans. There is a lack of blood flow to glans during erection and flaccid state. Ghost, you mentioned having a soft glans problem. Do you experience any glans pain?

Re: Scared of any drug that touches serotonin

Re: Scared of any drug that touches serotonin

Can you tried any non drug treatments?

Re: Zakalwe Intro - single dose lexapro

Thanks Ghost. I remember reading on this forum that it took a year for you to feel an alcoholic buzz again. Did you ever get back to baseline ability?

Also, I left some comments on the Reddit PSSD forum as but I think they are hidden now. I don't understand why.

Re: Zakalwe Intro - single dose lexapro

Anyone else with glans sensitivity? It doesn't seem like a PSSD symptom. Most people have glans numbing?
