Taking Milk Thistle and getting a liver cleanse is not the answer for someone still on SSRIs, if that is indeed (and it is very likely) the problem. So unless you've already quit taking the Zoloft, your condition is radically, not just slightly, different. Sorry to disappoint you, but maybe Auntybiotic has found some supplements that do provide relief while still on SSRIs. Please correct me if I'm wrong!

Day 2 of reducing Lexapro from 20mg to 10. |
I was on Zoloft for 4 months and ive now been off the zoloft for 4.5 months and the side effects still remain, i have numbness in my entire genital area and my overall skin sensitivity has gone down drastically for example parts of my body that were extremely sensitive and tickilish are no longer so, they feel sort of numbed but not to the extent of my genital area. Also I feel like my emotional range has been stunted greatly, I no longer have highs or low's im just in the middle all the time which is common when on SSRI's but ive been off them now for 4.5 months and all of these side effects still remain.
