I got put on SSRIs at 16 for OCD and my growth basically stopped, or at least slowed down considerably (nurse measured me as 5’ 11” but I was probably more like 5’ 10.5” at the time). A little over a year later I was measured at about 5’ 10.8 at the doctor’s office. I quit SSRIs in February of 2021 (age 18) and by December of 2021 I was 5’ 11.5, which is what I am now as my nighttime height.
Moral of the story is, don’t take SSRIs, especially if you’re young. They have been shown to cause growth attenuation and they also lower bone density. They also made me socially retarded when I was taking them. I’ll take slightly worse OCD over that bullshit any day.
