Daily Mail: Depression pills sabotaged my love life

The article “Depression Pills Sabotaged My Love Life” by Katinka Newman describes the experience of a woman prescribed Lexapro for insomnia while dealing with a divorce. The woman had suffered an adverse reaction to the drug, resulting in homicidal thoughts of killing her children. She was taken to an emergency center and tried on different drugs, only to find out that her sexual dysfunction persisted after stopping the drug. Fortunately, she regained this after a month, however she discusses how she had come across a support group online for PSSD. She states that she was lucky to not experience it, however another sufferer within the article describes his experience after living with it for over a decade.
