>It was just after going I couldn't get it all out I guess, so I would feel all done stand up and it would keep dripping for a little bit. I have never had this in my life and it went away as soon as I stopped.

I'm surprised you had that effect with SSRIs. Urinary effects are much more likely with SNRIs like Cymbalta. The urinary effects of SNRIs and NRIs seem to be relieved by low doses of alpha blockers such as doxazosin, which improve urinary flow in men.

What were the urinary effects of memantine like?

>Neat about the saffron too, didn't put those two together, maybe I'll give it a go, you'd recommend 30mg a day or 15mg?

The recommended dose is 30mg of extract per day in total, divided into two doses of 15mg each.

>Zoloft- akathisia, impotence, agitation/anxiety etc...

Given your extreme reaction to SSRIs, have you ever tried a much lower than average dose? If so, what happened?

....for example, with sertraline (Zoloft), what would happen if you only took 1/4 of a 50mg tablet? Your adverse reactions to these drugs seems much more dramatic than expected. Which produced the most severe side effects for you, and which produced the mildest? And at what doses?

It is common for SSRIs to produce an initial aggravation of anxiety and sometimes OCD, but this is usually followed by a decrease. I'm surprised you managed to stay on Brintellix so long when the side effects were so bad. How long did you take the various SSRIs for?
