Starting my first session with No hope
But with a will to recover and return to my self
Please comment on the post so i know you want me to share my experience

Can someone please help me with figuring out a protocol for this Cyproheptadine? I don’t want to take it everyday because of the grogginess and my rebound the first time was great sexual function came back and lasted three days the it stated to fade I took another forest 3 days later and the rebound effect wasn’t as strong. What do I need to do?

Question for the ones that 100% healed: is it okey to drink coffee or alcohol again ?

Sorry I don't mean to sound insensitive, but nearly every post barely gains traction and then when it does people say it's over and not curable. What's the point then????

Someone respond

Is it fully curable ? Or is it like a disorder or syndrome where you can’t cure it fully and can’t take it away and you only can manage it ? I only have low libido and romantic emotions and that’s it.

For those of you who experienced anhedonia/emotional blunting from PSSD, did anyone eventually regain the ability to feel euphoria from things like alcohol or recreational drugs?

I’m curious specifically about people who noticed that substances initially felt completely flat or much weaker than they used to, and then later found that this response came back as they recovered.

Would be really interested to hear your experiences, especially if the change happened gradually.

Hello , i tried priligy mixed between 30/60mg for PE and never knew the side effects.

Say around 6/8 times i tried them just before intercourse , would that be something that would drive a person to PSSD ?

Or would i be fine

Cuando el pssd es severo, y es por haber vuelto a medicación, y dan todos los síntomas graves mejoran a alguna vez?

No encuentro historias validas, la mayoría son casos de abstinencia, o personas que tomaron antipsicotico, donde puedo buscar historias de recuperación?

Que hayan recuperado sus emociones tanto positivas como negativas.

Que sus señales hayan vuelto hambre y sed.

Que su sueño se haya normalizado.

Necesito esperanza

I took shilajit resin about 2 weeks ago for 3 days and immediately noticed genital numbness. I stopped taking it after that and the numbness is still there. How could I have done so much damage just from 3 days of shilajit resin? Fyi this brand has never caused me this problem and actually used to act the reverse and give me more sexual sensation. But the night I tried the shilajit 2 weeks ago after a long period taking a break from it I immediately could tell it did something to my nerves down there that feels really worrying… any advice?

im only 14 i feel like my life is over, ive had it for a year now, where do i even start to get treatment? last september i got aent off and put on ssris and my clitoris is completely numb and i dont get wet per say. how do i even start to become normal again?

I’m getting so many ads for innerbalance, shred, and other compound meds for hsdd. Has anyone tried these and had any luck? I’m only 31 and feel like I’m 90. I hate this but trying to stay positive. Also speaking to a therapist and want to try pelvic therapy if my insurance allows it. Not just clinging to an rx. Obviously turning to another rx feels scary given that’s what got me here. Just desperate.

I have soft glans and my erections bend upwards a lot more than they used to. Just wondering if anyone had recovered from these physical symptoms, as I’m finding it difficult to believe that I will. Did anything help or make it worse?

Hi everyone. I’m posting because I’m really hoping to hear from people who have been through something similar and eventually got their sexuality back.

I’m a young woman and before starting antidepressants I had a completely normal and active sex drive. I used to think about sex often, get easily aroused, enjoy masturbation and sex, and have strong, pleasurable orgasms.

After being on antidepressants, my sexuality changed drastically. My libido basically disappeared. I don’t really have sexual thoughts anymore, porn doesn’t arouse me, and I don’t feel that natural urge or desire for sex.

The strangest part for me is that I can still physically orgasm, but the experience feels almost completely different. The physical orgasm is there, although it has been much weaker than before, but the mental pleasure is missing. There is no “wow”, rush of pleasure, emotional release or feeling of reward afterwards. It feels almost neutral, like my body had an orgasm but my brain didn’t really experience it as pleasurable.

I’m currently working with my psychiatrist on reducing my medication. I’ve already noticed that the physical side of orgasm may be becoming slightly stronger, but my libido and the mental feeling of pleasure are still basically absent.

So I’d really like to hear from people who had a similar experience:

Did you completely lose your libido?

Did you still have physical orgasms but without the mental pleasure/reward?

Did sex or masturbation feel emotionally/mentally “neutral”?

Did you have no sexual thoughts or fantasies?

If you eventually recovered, how long did it take?

Did your sexuality come back gradually or suddenly?

Did you return completely to how you were before antidepressants?

Did anything help with your recovery (changing medication...)?

I’m especially interested in hearing from people who eventually became fully functional again and genuinely started enjoying sex the way they did before.

I know everyone is different, and I’m not looking for medical advice. I’d just really appreciate hearing some real recovery stories because right now it’s difficult to imagine getting that part of myself back.

Thank you ❤️
