NKP,
You wrote,[...getting dumber..struggle to concentrate...(not responsive) when people talk to me...took SSRI's...any thoughts...].
There is a large body of research unfolding to indicate that there could be permanent brain damage from taking psychotropic drugs such as the SSRIs.
You could do a search and find these. Here is a link to a post from this forum that may be of interest.
