About this episode -
In this episode, we explore Post-SSRI Sexual Dysfunction, or PSSD, a condition that can develop after taking antidepressants like SSRIs or SNRIs. Rosie shares her personal experience living with PSSD and explains that it’s not just about sexual dysfunction—there are many other symptoms, like emotional blunting and cognitive impairment.
We also discuss the widespread use of antidepressants in countries like Australia and the UK and the role of social isolation in the mental health crisis. What’s alarming is the lack of understanding and support for those who suffer from these adverse effects of medication.
Rosie emphasizes how crucial proper informed consent is—people simply aren’t warned about long-term risks like PSSD. She talks about the emotional and psychological toll it takes and the urgent need for more recognition of the condition. We touch on how hard it is to get doctors to even acknowledge PSSD, let alone diagnose it, and the worrying lack of studies tracking its prevalence over time.
We both agree that there needs to be better education, stricter pre-screening, and ongoing monitoring of patients taking SSRIs to address these issues.
I hope you enjoy the conversation and think twice before taking an SSRI.
