Brain ruined by SSRIs, I hate myself

I have triggered a condition known as PSSD by taking antidepressants. It stands for Post-SSRI sexual dysfunction. The symptoms include Anhedonia (loss of all emotions / dopaminergic activity) as well as pleasureless orgasms & loss of libido. This condition has also fucked with my hormonal profile. Many people think it's not a big deal, while others say they would've ended it already if they were me. It's been 4 years. I've tried mostly everything, there's no known cure to this condition and it has caused suicides. I hate my life, no one is taking this seriously because it's a rare poorly researched issue. I have talked to many therapists & seen a number of doctors. One told me they'd rather have cancer than be in my situation. Otherwise, No one knows what to tell me. I'm so exhausted, I don't know why I'm still here. This is inhuman. I feel as if I was stuck in a prison. I can't help but replay the good careless moments of my childhood in my head, I envy that kid. Life feels so empty, I keep dreaming about getting into a car accident or something like that. I wish life would end. Please.
