Seeking those with challenging experiences after quitting antidepressants

The Guardian, the BBC, the NYT, and various other news outlets across the globe have increasingly been releasing articles on the ever more becoming relevant subject of PSSD (Post-SSRI Sexual Dysfunction), a life changing condition caused by antidepressants where sufferers inexplicably no longer have any libido whatsoever and have numbness of the genitals which can last for years or even indefinitely after stopping the medication.

The more articles that are released on the matter, the more unwitting sufferers of the condition have finally been able to put a name to their symptoms which they often have been experiencing for many years.

I am looking to see if there's anyone on here who may find that this description matches what you've been experiencing. It's important that word gets out there. If you read this and think you may have PSSD, please do not hesitate to PM me. There is an organized community of support groups and volunteer groups organized by the PSSD Network which can offer support.
