Parisien Posted July 30 Author Share Posted July 30 I don't know @Fairsome.. the antidepressant blocks serotonin reuptake sport increases dopamine serotonin for hormones it can't hurt. Even for stress anxiety sport is very very good to practice regularly. It's worth trying this setting goals in years. And we'll see after we support guys I'm thinking of you! Hello everyone, I was on seroplex 10mg in October 2019 for over a year and then on brintellix from March to September for maybe 8 months. I made several attempts to stop abruptly then I resumed the treatment of brintellix recently for a few weeks because it was too difficult to stop. Symptom when stopped: premature ejaculation, ejaculation with less orgasm. Severe insomnia, transient headaches, sensitivity to noise and light.

Ben190 Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 6 hours ago, Parisien said: Courage my friend already if you see improvements it's a good sign. @Ben190 you took the treatment how long?? Me you know @Avicii I took seroplex for a year and a half so I think it may be more serious for me. Beyond a year of taking it can be for life, that's what I read. Afterwards I don't know but what scares me is never going back to the person I was before. To wait to wait to make the effort without his pay .. and to miss out on my life somehow Hey Parisien, My major mistake was to take this **** two times. first time my PSSD healed after 10 months when I took it for 2 weeks. Then I took it again due to withdrawal symptoms for another 4 weeks and that time my system crashed completely. Had to stop the intake from one day to the other. Since then I struggled. I hope you guys will be faster as your system didn’t see this immense reaction. how are you today? 2018 - october: 10 days Fluoxetin 20mg 2018 - october: CT after bad reactions 2019 - june: 3,5 weeks Fluoxetin 20mg 2019 - june: 5 days Fluoxetin 10mg 2019 - july: CT after massive problems Link to comment
Parisien Posted July 30 Author Share Posted July 30 Hey guys how are you, what's up this weekend? Me rest because I am very tired. I have set myself the goals of resuming sport from next week by going to the gym and jogging outside with the good weather. I'm going to do that with a good diet and regular bedtimes for good sleep. I will do this for 1 year. And I will see if I see improvements or not whether mental or sexual. Then I will advise taking something to increase serotonin because me during the antidepressant treatment everything is going well sexually and I had no shrinkage. On the other hand, I had memory loss and I was afraid of not being able to have children and that in the long run it would have harmful effects. And nothing says that if within some time with the sport its does not arrange the resumption of chemical or natural antidepressant (St. John's wort etc), its restores a normal sexuality. Do you guys think, for example, that by taking an antidepressant the size of the penis will return to normal as well as premature ejaculation? @Ben190 @Avicii Hello everyone, I was on seroplex 10mg in October 2019 for over a year and then on brintellix from March to September for maybe 8 months.

Body was shaking, dreams crazy, always immense problems with stomache. It was terrible... so I just hope that PSSD will leave finally completely and then I am back to normal life. Guys I think everyone has the chance to heal... ah and yeah I will also do more sports again. But don’t push too fast too hard, your system is sensible. So take it easy at the beginning and look how much your body is willing to give.

Manny78 Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 Hi guys. I am so sorry for all of us. I get sexual dysfunction sometimes. I take Cymbalta 60mg. I think it is one of the culprits. I get sexual arousal when I am with my girlfriend, but it doesn't last longer. When we have sexual intercourse I don't get climax only some. We only made love once. We want to try again. Sometimes I get so turn on but it takes me a lot to ejaculate having sexual dysfunction most of the times. Others I have some orgasm. I take abilify 2,1ml too. Abilify causes to have strong desire for sex if I am not mistaken. Can I "cheat" not taking abilify 2,1ml,Cymbalta 60mg and biperiden 4mg extended release before sex?

Parisien Posted August 5 Author Share Posted August 5 Hello I hope you're fine. As you are still on treatment, the only thing I can advise you is to stop your treatment completely and wean yourself off. If you want to continue taking it at all costs, stopping it a few days before a report can help you because I had noticed that the treatment had effects for 2 or 3 days. Moreover when I stop them completely I was really bad after 3 days not right away. Guys I noticed that the veins in my erect penis were really bright red and very showy does this happen to you too? Well do you have that? I see in it the sign that there is a problem, maybe the day it goes away, those will be the beginning of a possible cure. Be well guys if you have any improvements or just need to talk let me know @Ben190 @Avicii @Manny78 Hello everyone, I was on seroplex 10mg in October 2019 for over a year and then on brintellix from March to September for maybe 8 months.
