was prescribed lexipro or something similar to it many years ago. I took maybe two or three doses and got uneasy about continuing. I stopped. But just those few days permanantly damaged my brain chemistry - I never felt the same again. For one thing I had a very rich dream life that was immediately shut off, my connection never to be fully restored. I have come to realize the poisoning I experienced was a deliberate, very successful attack on my spiritual connection. If only I had known the potential risks, I would NEVER have taken the "medicine".
Thank you for sharing this. I was prescribed prozac after a very brief meeting with a psychiatrist (many many years ago). I tried it briefly but my body said no and so I just stopped.
I was dealing with severe ptsd that had been exacerbated by cruelty in the present day. (seems to be an endless ongoing theme!)
Now I don't see md's or use drugs of any sort ever and am outside any so called system's of health.
If I become severely cleaved (dissociated) from myself I have been successful in finding trauma informed hotlines (usually some kind of abuse hotline) to help me regulate and climb back into my body.
Although the cruelty of man feels very amped up to me right now and the understanding of trauma very thin by most in my experience.
I knew a man who was institutionalized as a teenager and put on lithium. The experience in the institution traumatized him deeply. He also spoke of not dreaming.
I came across another man on a feed who had recently taken himself off psych meds. Said he knew the warnings and practiced a certain detachment with suicidal thoughts that came up.
What a shit show all this is. Every little in and out.
But most crushing, I think, is the way 'our society' does not hold space for those who need space held. As if somehow a certain contagion exists, when in reality there is a simplicity to what is needed. But most do not understand.
Thanks both of you for this chilling testimony; sorry for your suffering. Scary as hell that just 3 doses could cause such a permanent negative effect.

Drugs are terrifying.
And thank you ❤️
