Has anyone successfully sued or been compensated for post-SSRI sexual dysfunction?

Particularly interested in hearing from people in the UK.

I honestly feel like these drugs butchered me and ruined my life when I was just a young man of 19. The psychiatrist who prescribed them to me lied to my face when I asked about sexual side effects (this was back in 2011/2012). If there was an even 1% chance of those drugs irrevocably ruining my sexual function I would have told her to stick them where the sun don't shine.
29 years old. ED caused by CPPS/HF-like symptoms since coming off antidepressants in 2012. Taking Cialis 5mg every other day and undergoing pelvic floor physiotherapy.

I haven't. The thing is, proving cause and effect is very difficult. Technically, "anything" could have caused your ED/impotence, as far as the court of law goes. I think the clincher is that "negligence" would have to be proven on the part of the doctor. The fact that you were hurt by the medication doesn't prove the doctor's culpability. However, I would love to see this happen. Doctors who cause young men to become impotent deserve to experience an equal level of pain and suffering.
