Cause
r/PSSD first-person OP u/Maximum_Witness_6743 (post 1vbeave): 4 days of Lexapro plus antipsychotics during two psych-ward stays; OP says none of this was present before. Clear BOTH blank mind + numb/anhedonia/no emotions. Unused; logged via blankedonia_db live hunt 2026-09-13.
Duration
not dated beyond age 20 at post (July 2026); related posts exist but duration not in this selftext; ~1y out still worsening at Aug 2026 1voovjq
Recovery notes
[2026-08-15, post 1voovjq] ~1y out of wards: loss of emotions + aphantasia/blank mind + severe anhedonia still, only gotten worse. Names Seroquel/Risperdal/Latuda/Haldol. | No recovery. OP comment 2026-08-01 only elaborates that with milder PSSD they still had dandruff/acne/natural oils and scratching released endorphins they miss — implies a worsening, not recovery. Psychiatrist denied symptoms / attributed to OCD. | [2026-10-13 watch] r/clozapine crosspost 1voozq3 (2026-08-15) noted. | [2026-10-30 watch] earlier posts 1ukkbpp (2026-07-01) and 1uvx699 (2026-07-13) added to other_posts.
