I would make an appointment to see an AME, or spend the $$ to contact AMAS. Their Docs are experts on stuff like this. They have weekly calls with the FAA going over their clients cases. I don't know about others on here but I had to Google "SSRI" to even find out what you were talking about. AMAS: https://www.aviationmedicine.com/
