Two recent scientific studies on emotional blunting caused by SSRIs (not persistent but still different from 'it's your depression'):

- Chronic escitalopram in healthy volunteers has specific effects on reinforcement sensitivity: a double-blind, placebo-controlled semi-randomised study

- Can antidepressant use be associated with emotional blunting in a subset of patients with depression? A scoping review of available literature

CCHR (https://www.cchr.org/) is mentioned in the two articles linked above. "The Citizens Commission on Human Rights (CCHR) continues to raise public awareness of the risks of serious side effects and withdrawal symptoms from antidepressants and other psychiatric drugs, so that consumers and their physicians can make fully informed decisions about starting or stopping the drugs."

I'm reading that it was founded by the church of scientology... do you have any opinions? has anyone got in touch?
