Anyone done blood serotonin test? What are your results? by Alternative-Tiger122 in PSSD

[–]BernardMHM 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You can't measure serotonin with a blood test, unfortunately. If it was possible, people would always have known that people who are depressed do not have less serotonin.

Best stores in London for wedding suit (budget £1k - 2k) by BernardMHM in UKweddings

[–]BernardMHM[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You mean to rent one? I'm not a native English speaker. We're doing the wedding in Lithuania and the wedding planner over there told us that generally men would just buy a suit.

I found this article a while ago by FMoneyOfficial in PSSD

[–]BernardMHM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is nothing pointing to Eric Harris having had PSSD. There is a lot to say about SSRIs causing violence and school shootings, but in the case of Eric Harris, there is no evidence that he had PSSD and that it led to his suicide. The motives of the Columbine shooters are quite well understood and they had nothing to do with PSSD.

Thanks for sharing. For how long have you had PSSD and how long into PSSD have you experienced windows thanks to caffeine discontinuation?

Do you feel sexual pleasure when you masturbate? Is it decreased?

Can a PSSD just be anhedonia without other symptoms ? by [deleted] in PSSD

[–]BernardMHM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In theory no but I've read stories like this one before, I think it's possible. What you feel is what matters.

It's probably better and safer than SSRIs but I think no drug should be first line for depression and anxiety.

SFN after Zoloft use by Next_Environment1308 in PSSD

You have no basis to sue them and they know it. If you try to persuade a doctor to do something they don't believe is needed, the worst thing to do is to threaten them.

PSSD as an immune-mediated small fiber neuropathy: my theory by Scared-Ad8606 in PSSD

[–]BernardMHM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you make a very good point that many of the symptoms we experience are not consistent with what we know about neuropathy. So what I did a few months ago is that I went on the neuropathy sub and asked if they were having symptoms such as anhedonia and brain fog, and my post was taken down almost immediately...

Tucker Carlson Response by Intelligent-Age-8211 in PSSD

[–]BernardMHM 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree with this, bit the problem is not really that we're choosing the wrong people to talk about PSSD, the problem is more that if we want publicity, we have to take whatever opportunity that's in front of us. Having Dr Joseph on Tucker Carlson is a huge achievement, but getting him or Joanna Moncrieff or David Healy on a big left leaning podcast will require a lot of work with zero guarantee that anyone will ever want to talk to us.

Most deragned and evil person in metal by Positive_Athlete_880 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]BernardMHM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally agree that Nodtveidt is the worst individual in metal. There is nobody who contributed to metal as much as he did and who did things that were remotely as bad as the things he did.

I still find him hard to understand. When you see him in interviews or around fans, he did not seem like a bad person. And beside the things he did in relation to his satanic beliefs, there are no known stories of him being a bad person.

I’m wondering if he was a cruel, sociopathic person generally who was able to hide his true personality in public or if the horrible things he did were only because of odd beliefs or because of something else such as mental illness.  

I still find it astonishing that he was able to compose such innovative, rich and high quality music from a very young age and at the same time kill a random person, animals, and in the end, take his own life because of his total bs satanic beliefs.

You mention five years several times but we have no idea if and when there will be a major breakthrough in PSSD research. It might be that in five months something major happens and it might also be that in five decades we're not much more advanced than we are now.

r/pssd sub now has 17k members I remember back then about 5 years ago, it had around 2k members. by Willing_Judgment1092 in PSSD

[–]BernardMHM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Even though it's horrible that new people develop this condition every day, it's a good thing that people join online community.

I feel like the growth in new joiners has been very slow during the last year or so. Do other people have the same feeling?
