..... What do you think? .....I think SSRIs make me a bit more selfish and reduce my concern for others. Perhaps they can reduce empathy? I think this is an important question to address. Personally, SSRI have much less impact on my personality than benzos. Benzos make me positively nasty! As always, YMMV. Would the world be a more caring place without SSRI? It's interesting how we have drugs that reduce emotion but we don't have any drugs that turn sociopaths into 'nice' people!!!
