I feel u, I overdosed on sertraline once to the point where I was hospitalised for ages and paralysed for 3 days and the withdrawals after that were genuinely horrible

was it serotonin syndrome?

was it serotonin syndrome?

It's a syndrome you develop from overdosing on ssris and very often ecstacy. It's deadly a lot of the time and not fun so something one should be careful about when taking meds in that category : )

What were the pros & cons?

it definitely stabilised my mood, i no longer had extreme ups or downs and for the most part i felt calm. however this meant that feeling joy was no longer the same, i feel my personality subsided which could be either a pro or con idk it depends on how you interpret it. i wouldn’t say i experienced a massive decrease of libido but it has certainly increased while i’ve been off them. overall not a bad experience, i just would rather get off them now in order to build a stronger sense of autonomy and self control for the future
