So SSRIs (Sertraline, Citalopram, Vortioxetine...) treat my base line anxiety quite well, also got rid of digestion problems, but I am struggling with emotional blunting, numbness, lack of motivation, indifference, no pleasure from anything or interest in engaging with anybody/anything. In an effort to avoid emotional numbness caused by Vortioxetine, I switched to Paroxetine thinking that this would possibly fix things since Paroxetine has slightly different effects than Vortioxetine but I feel the numbness coming back again. How do you get over this? Has anyone found a treatment or medication that is good for this? I'm not even getting enjoyment from food or exercise like I used to. Any ideas for augmentations to address this?
Thanks for any help/ anecdotes you guys can offer!
