I think no one in relationship should EVER take SSRI.
Sex, Love, and SSRIs | Psychology Today
I recommend reading whole paper. It isn't science fiction, there is a reason I started researching this topic. Let's say I experienced it. It's ridiculous how much it can fuck up your head. You just loose feeling of love without any real reason, you start questioning your feelings. If you're unaware of this it may fuck up your life and make you loose someone very special just becouse his/her/your head got fucked up by those meds.
Everything that changes brain chemistry is SERIOUS shit. It's day and night difference for some and should always be used as last resort.
That right there gave me second thoughts, I've only been on it for 2 days now and I'm not sure if I'm going to stay on. I have zero depression, it was prescribed to me as a safe alternative from the benzo family of drugs. But I think I'd rather have anxiety than lose feelings in life , girls, etc.
I throughly research any substance I take before I take it, and I have read that SSRI's mellow your emotions, but can make you not care about anything. I don't really want that.
