For the ladies, as that's what I'm interested in...
1)What antidepressants have you been on, and for how long, and at what dosages? Please list.
2)For each AD, please state how the AD affected your sex drive. Specifically, did it lower or increase your sex drive? Were you able to orgasm? How much did you feel that the AD affected your sex drive overall? If it had no effect on you sexually then please state that also...
Thank you!
As for me...
1)Prozac, 40 mg, 7 weeks
Remeron, 60 mg, 6 weeks
Effexor, 400 mg, 3 months
Reboxetine/Edronax, 8 mg, 4 weeks
Tianeptine, 37.5 mg, 6 weeks2)Prozac -- totally killed my sex drive. No interest in sex whatsoever. Could not orgasm no matter what. In fact, it took me a while off the drug to be able to orgasm again. It definitely was a major downer on my sex life and relationship...
Remeron -- Didn't affect my sex drive one way or the other. I could orgasm on it fine.
Effexor -- Slight increase in sex drive, but complete inability to orgasm. I eventually couldn't handle not being able to orgasm, so I went off it..
Reboxetine -- Significant increase in sex drive -- very nice! Still able to orgasm normally. I really liked being so sexual...
Tianeptine -- No effect whatsoever on sex drive or ability to orgasm.
