really hair loss? im suprised.. hair loss is usually caused by a genetic predispoisition where testosterone converts to Dihydrotestosterone, these bind to hair molecules and they die, thats why when people take steroids they often lose their hair but usually only faster, so id be interestesed to know if that actually happens with anti depresants, never heard of it as a side. as for SSRIs causing alcoholism, i first went on them when iwas 19 or 20, i think i started working in an office 22. it was the anxiety in the office, wanting to wind down and heck it was fun, for a few years, drinking each night that did it, so i cant point the finger at ssris, i have seen anecdotes online though, and i wonder if there has ever been any studies done into it and what would be the mechanism of action.
