Question:
Neuroplasticity might provide hope for those who have sustained damage from SSRI use?

After posting the original article to this thread, I was suprised to find that so many people have experienced similar symptoms to myself. Not only this but I was almost devistated to find out that the symptoms Ive complained of could be classed as a for of brain damage brought on by the long term use of SSRI medication.

After re-grouping myself from this shocking revelation, I decided to do conduct some study into how the brain may be able to repair itself if this was at all possible. An area of interest was seen to be of a field of study called "Neuroplasticity" or the brains ability to regrow new cells and also re/forge new links (memories, experiences, knowledge).

Ive pasted part of definition below along with the link. This can certainly give people hope that they may be able to once return to their former capabilities before the use of SSRI's

Answer: SSRI's are famous for switching off people's consciences.

Historically, SSRI users post a lot of hyperbole and propaganda mythologizing SSRI's, while referring to the legions of those whom the SSRI's killed, maimed, and caused permanently damage to as "collateral damage" ala Kevin McVeighs callously referring to the pre-schoolers in the Fed Bldg in Oklahoma as collateral damage. In its recent infatuation with symptomatic, push-button remedies, psychiatry has lost its way not only intellectually but spiritually and morally. Even when it is not actually doing damage to the people it is supposed to help,…it is encouraging among doctors and patients alike the fraudulent and dangerous fantasy that life's every passing 'symptom' can be clinically diagnosed and, once diagnosed, alleviated if not eliminated by pharmacological intervention."
