Hi everyone,
I have been following this forum for over a month. I am very grateful for all of you. I have been suffering for almost 4 years and did not know what I had. I read by chance a post by someone on mayo clinic forum having similar symptoms after taking 5htp. Now, things make sense to me. I have never taken antidepressants, but I took 5htp for insomnia before my symptoms started to appear. I never made the connection. In addition to common pssd symptoms, I also had extreme physical and mental fatigue. I came across something that helped immensely with the physical/mental fatigue. I am still struggling with the sexual part. If there are any who suffer from this, please comment below and will discuss it further.

Re: physical/mental fatigue
I slept really much, and I asked if that is a common problem with PSSD: https://www.reddit.com/r/PSSD/comments/ ... you_sleep/
~2 months after reinstating my medication, this problem is gone. I sleep 9 hours now and don't feel tired during the day.
Edit: The fatigue is back, but much less terrible. At 18 and at 21 o clock I feel terribly sleepy, but it goes away after 10 minutes of extensive yawning.
My GP prescribed me Bupropion. So I'm not sure what helped: Sertraline or Bupropion or both.
