I blew off a number of good relationships simply because I couldn't feel the need to form intimate friendships.

We all need people. We all need to be loved and cared about and cared for.

SSRI's often nullified that dimention to life and at first it seemed liberating, but it slowly just evolved into an increasingly robotic personality.

Even the lack of crying was a hard thing to take. Its like the drugs physically blocked the ability to cry. Crying can release emotions that often get bottled up inside. It can be a very good feeling afterwards. Like an orgasm (no grossness intented) which SSRI's can blunt too.

On SSRI's it was much easier to think about suicide because at times the only reason for staying alive is for other people's sake. If you can't feel that dimention of connection, then, in some ways, there really isn't much reason to live.

A robot doesn't care if its alive or dead.
