does anyone have any information or recommendations following post SSRI use. My girlfriend has used SSRIs on/off for 10 years. She now has slow peristalsis, constipation, inflammed/bloated gut.
I realise gut issues will cause huge serotonin surges which will antagonise dopamine.
Also what about SSRIs causing a functional dopamine deficiency? Like PSSD. She is experiencing anhedonia, depression. Does anyone know what mechanism is dysfunctioning here? And how to reverse it.
She did therapeutic psilocybin which initially helped her come off SSRIs but this wore off after 3 months.
