Is My Brain Permanently Damaged From Taking Ssri Antidepressants?
Question by Sean: Is my brain permanently damaged from taking ssri antidepressants?
I am 15 years old and I have been taking Celexa for two and a half years. I have only recently been alerted of the dangers associated with ssris. I am going to start weening off today. I have never increased my dosage even when I built up a tolerance. I still have a strong sex drive and I am able to feel emotion and I can be happy. Am I too late?

Why don’t you call your Dr.’s office and get a real opinion. I’m not aware of these dangers of ssri’s that you’re talking about and suspect that one researcher screwed up his experiment and misrepresented his results. That actually happens all the time.
