I am unable to debug code or run a Python console due to an inability to import ssl. I get this behavior when using two Anaconda virtual environments I have created.
For example when I attempt to debug Python code that uses boto3 I see the following error:

When I attempt to run a Python Console I get a similar error:

Something which may be related is that I created a new virtual environment in PyCharm and when I attempted to update the pip module the following SSL-related error occurred:
Collecting pip==19.0.1

I encountered the same issue with PyCharm recently. Based on their forum post it's a known issue that will be fixed in the next release of Pycharm 2019.1. The only way that I have found to get around this is to create an environment using python 3.6. If you use that environment as your interpreter PyCharm should work properly. Hope this helps.
