These are really difficult stories to hear.
But there's also something really satisfying.
Whenever we publish one of these stories, we're flooded with people getting in touch.
And what's been really striking is the number of cases from people in the US where this seems a really underreported subject.
You know, we've been approached by lots of people in America who were sort of saying, I've never seen this written about before.
Thank God it wasn't just me that this happened to.
But it feels to me that unless we can reduce the shame and the stigma that people suffer when they take these medications and experience these side effects, then they'll continue to be underreported.
And unless people have true knowledge of the scale of the side effects and their consequences, how can they make truly informed decisions?
Thanks so much for having me.
These impulsive behaviours manifested in different ways.
So for some people, they develop gambling addictions.
Some people develop sexually impulsive behaviour.
Some people develop compulsive shopping or binge eating, but all felt a struggle to control their actions.
Well, the striking thing for many of them is that they didn't link their behaviour and the medication until it was too late.
We've met people that have lost tens, hundreds of thousands of pounds to gambling.
People whose sexually impulsive behaviour has put them in significant risk.
And often there's a moment of revelation years down the line where they discovered that actually the medication was known to cause impulsive behaviour.
Lots of people say they had no proclivity, no taste or appetite for the sorts of behaviours they then engaged with.
People have told us of their sexuality changing.
People have told us that who've never bet even on a horse race in their life become huge gamblers.
