In response to recent posts, especially A Time for PSSD, Laurie Oakley got in touch with the following thoughts. Laurie has had a series of six posts on Pharmaceutical Rape on davidhealy.org starting in February 2015 but mostly from early January 2016. These outline her own difficulties recovering from medication induced injury and the equal injury of finding the system … [Read more...] about Is Recovery from Medication Possible?
Sex Please but We Are on Antidepressants
This anonymous post stemmed from a RxISK report, which came in following A Time for PSSD last week. If anyone else, female or male, has started an antidepressant before or early in puberty with things not working quite as a result - anything from being asexual through to intrusive uncontrollable orgasms - you can file a RxISK Report . This will keep everything you mention … [Read more...] about Sex Please but We Are on Antidepressants
A Time for Post SSRI Sexual Dysfunction?
This post has been put together by L who in the last few years has been an inspiration to many people suffering the ill-effects of a number of different drugs. Like mythical heroines she has many different aliases. When it comes to the harms done to us, behind heroes like Zorro or the Scarlet Pimpernel, you can almost certainly find L or another woman. There is a French … [Read more...] about A Time for Post SSRI Sexual Dysfunction?
Diagnostic Criteria for Enduring Sexual Dysfunction
Background We noticed that a lack of diagnostic criteria was increasingly being mentioned in the published literature on post-SSRI sexual dysfunction (PSSD). The condition was being described as difficult to diagnose because there was no commonly accepted definition. At the same time, a number of new websites and online discussions were appearing, many of which seemed to … [Read more...] about Diagnostic Criteria for Enduring Sexual Dysfunction
The Handmaid’s Vaccine
This post is a companion to Where Does the Misinformation Come From? on DH.org, which gives the slides and text of a lecture on Monday evening. Norman Fenton asked me to give the talk to a group that is neither pro nor anti vaccines or drugs but were all interested in how we go about collecting evidence . The talk is dedicated, in my mind anyway, to Bri Dressen and all who … [Read more...] about The Handmaid’s Vaccine

Mentally Hijacked by Doxycycline
There are several previous posts on this topic - Doxycycline causes Suicide and Suicide is Painless and becoming suicidal on an antibiotic. None of them give as compelling a picture of what the problem is like from the inside as this letter that came to RxISK some months ago. A Life in Good Shape I am a thirty-eight year old active mother and partner who regularly practices … [Read more...] about Mentally Hijacked by Doxycycline
Albert’s Algorithm: Be Very Afraid
Last week in Washington a meeting was convened to look at Vaccine Harms - the harms suffered post-vaccine by some pro-vaccine people, some so much pro that they enrolled for vaccine clinical trials. See Mandated Harms. The meeting heard testimony from ten people, eight of whom I had interviewed, all of whom in my opinion had the injuries they claimed and for each a strong … [Read more...] about Albert’s Algorithm: Be Very Afraid
Mandated Harms: The Day of the Dead
Tens of thousands of people have been killed or badly injured by Covid vaccines. I have had the privilege to meet and assess over ten of the injured in the last two weeks, thanks to Bri Dressen. On November 2, the Day of the Dead, in the Capitol, Bri, along with Senator Ron Johnson, and Peter Doshi and Linda Wastila who co-ordinated a petition to FDA to ask for the … [Read more...] about Mandated Harms: The Day of the Dead
