Z,
You've suffered 'brain zaps'?
And on the subject of SSRIs......
For me, SSRIs reduce the number of thoughts coming into my head. They create an almost serene detachment from the reality of my life. They numb the pain of negative emotions. They allow me to ignore thoughts that I don't want to have (OCD etc). They reduce empathy and motivation. Time passes by unnoticed. Things never seem to get done. Everything gets left until the last minute. I dropped out of university.........but at least I'm calm :) Not quite happy, but I do at least feel pleasant. I take 80mg citalopram (Celexa). I do find it 'anxiolytic' - but at a cost.
Kind regards
Ed
