Helsingin Sanomat: Like Just A Shell

The Finnish article “Like Just A Shell” by Sini Saaritsa paints the picture of what it looks like to live with PSSD thanks to the guidance of a victim named Emma. Emma’s story explains what life feels like living with this condition, “Totally Disabling. PSSD completely locks up your emotional life. You don’t infatuate, you don’t fall in love, you don’t feel sexual desire and you don’t enjoy sex” she states. Emma’s story is an important learning lesson for professionals who overprescribe these medications, as the outcome could lead to serious consequences such as this.
