Re: Complete loss of sex drive because of antidepressants...
I am currently on Paxil CR for depression and social anxiety disorder, and the sexual side effects lasted about two weeks and then I was fine. Some other side effects come and go(especially now since I upped my dose). It is very important you talk with your psychiatrist like everyone else in the thread has already said, and try to find a medication that you can handle. I am not sure what other meds are out there since the only other anti-depressant I was on was prozac.

Re: Complete loss of sex drive because of antidepressants...
I took zoloft a couple of years ago for a six month period. I thought sex was great with it. Definitely hard to blow, but that was the beauty of it. You could kind of enjoy sex like a woman and not have to worry about blowing. Eventually you will learn to focus your mind so that you will have an orgasm. It takes a while but trust me you'll get there. I'm not saying it is just mental focus, obviously you still need the physical element. But where as without an anti-depressant / orgasm repressant the physical pleasure alone will be enough, you need to use your mind as well on the drugs.
I know this sounds nuts but I had a blast having sex on anti-depressants and was nervous about sex when I stopped taking them. Lolz. Edit: I was shagging a hotty in this period so I had something good to "focus" on, not sure how it would work with an ugly fatty. |

It's pretty amazing humans were able to survive without antidepressants for thousands of years without offing themselves at the drop of a hat. [/ QUOTE ] Well, in fairness, My Chemical Romance didn't exist back then. |
Re: Complete loss of sex drive because of antidepressants...
Interesting catch 22...because if I lost my sex drive I would really need the anti-depressants.
