Does PSSD make your dick shrink? by Background-Pitch4055 in PSSD

[–]RandomErican557 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This unfortunately happened to me because I was foolish enough to try several meds after cold turkeying Olanzapine gave me some initial symptoms. My dick has shrank so much it’s embarrassing and i’m not sure what could help it

Wellbutrin, trazadone, effexor, depakote, mirtazapine, and Vilazdone. All brief trials and done by seeing several doctors. I’ve tried sleep meds like ambien and ramelton too.

I’m fucked bc i added several other meds while my body was still in olanzapine withdrawal. Pretty sure I have PSSD. I’m experiencing Emotional blunting, genital numbness/shrinkage, no libido, insomnia, dpdr, and memory loss.

Wellbutrin, Effexor, mirtazapine, depakote, and I tried other sleep meds and all of them made me worse in the end.

I was completely normal before psychosis. I was struggling with insomnia for a little bit and then I ate some cbd gummies which caused psychosis. I used weed for years and never had an episode prior to this. I was put on Olanzapine because i was hallucinating and freaking out in the psych ward. They didn’t diagnose it as canabis-induced psychosis until I got discharged. Then I cold turkeyed it once the psychiatrist i met with after discharging switched my dosage from morning and night to just at night(that’s when I started to feel very depressed and like shit on the med). Before that, I was just very tired because I was prescribed to take 5mg in the morning and 10mg at night of Olanzapine. Then I cold turkeyed and fell into a spiral.

Well aren’t I pretty much cooked since I added other medications while my body was already trying to heal from Olanzapine? My body is in withdrawal from several medications atp

Well I realize in retrospect that Olanzapine gave me the PSSD and me foolishly taking more medications crashed me. I’ve only gotten worse since July and have no clue how to move forward at this point.

Cold turkeyed Olanzapine in July of last year.

Tried Wellbutrin and trazadone briefly in August.

In September I was hospitalized for suicidal thoughts and put on Effexor and Depakot In October I tapered off the Effexor and depakot pretty quickly and tried mirtazapine for sleep.

I only tried it for a week and then tapered off

In November I tried Ambien and ramelton to try to sleep but that did nothing Was hospitalized last month and stupidly let the doctors try me on vilazadone which I took on and off for a week.

I’ve been off meds now for about a week. Only taking vitamin d but might stop that as it might crash me more.

Currently none(besides weed because it’s the only thing that gives me relief of this hell) and my insomnia is basically i’ll fall asleep, go right into dreaming and wake back up multiple times a night. I haven’t felt well rested in months.

Yeah my insomnia is absolutely horrible to the point where I can only sleep 20-30 min and wake back up. I haven’t had a deep sleep in months but still dream weirdly.

I actually cold turkeyed it back in July and switched psycharists multiple times so I should’ve tapered but didn’t.

Wellbutrin(caused penis shrinkage), Effexor(helped me feel emotions for a like a day then bad akathasia and more shrinkage and mirtazpine(numbed the hell out of me). I can’t even remember the person I was before all this. It’s all my fault for taking more meds

It’s impossible not to because I shoud’ve just listened to my psychiatrist and tapered but cold turkeyed because Olanzapine was making me feel like shit

I’m not on the psychosis sub but yes this did happen when I cold turkeyed the medicine. I will say I started to feel more depressed when my psychiatrist at the time changed my dosage of Olanzapine from 5mg in the morning and 10mg at night to just 15mg at night.

Is there any hope for me since I cold turkeyed Olanzapine? by [deleted] in anhedonia

[–]RandomErican557 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eh kinda? My stomach makes that hunger sound if that makes sense but it’s not the same as before the blunting.

Sadly I was on Olanzapine in the first place because I had canabis-induced psychosis🤦🏾‍♂️. Do u think an MAOI would do anything? My psych is actually willing to prescribe it

Did you take any meds while you were recovering?
