This post is in no way an attempt to bash SSRI's, I just have a genuine question that I was wondering if anyone can relate to.
I know I have asked the question before, but does anyone feel like they have developed a drug problem after taking SSRIs?
I was exposed to SSRI's for a fairly long period of time growing up, (7-8 years). I was taken off them at 22-23, but feel like things have never been the same.
I never had a drug problem, infact I had never used a single illegal substance, but since being taken off them I continually feel there is something missing, that I try to fill with other drugs.
I know this may be a contoversial idea, but does anyone else feel like they have been turned on to other drugs, by using SSRI's?
BTW, I don't think it is a manic reaction, as I used SSRI's in the prescribed way for years without any problems, with no other agents.
I feel the problem has happened after coming off the SSRI's.Thoughts, anyone?
