Just curious if my experience is isolated or a shared experience. I studied psych for a while and work in the field so I guess a bit of personal and professional curiosity.

So far, I have only found articles to support SSRI's particularly, Prozac, to have the opposite effect and are commonly prescribed to help people kick an addiction.
