In reply to can ssris cause permanent side effects?, posted by borderliner21 on January 23, 2003, at 1:37:35
Sure, why not? I still experience the "electric--shock" sensation and I am consistantly on medication (Parnate now)...They started when I first discontinued Paxil (i was 15)....im 24 now...9 years seems fairly permanent. I think it's because of how young I was when I started.
I think it's naive to think that antidepressants don't cause some permanent side-effects, since the theory behind how these meds work, is based on downregulation and neuron growth.
