hi Mike,
you posted:
> Just reading through the thread and would like to add my comments. I started on Lexapro last October after seeing my family doc for ADD. He started me on Lex because of the anxiety and stress that ADD was causing me and because SSRI's seem to be the first course of action for adult ADD.

> I can tell you that it has decreased my libido and has certainly caused some erectile disfunction. Thank god for Viagra.
>welcome to our lex thread here at pBabble ... ... i appreciate your contribution ... ... every differnent angle gives us greater depth of perspective ... ... thanks!
i have yet to experience any negative libido impact, but i've only been on 10 mg of lex for 5 months now ... .. ... i have been hoping this wouldn't happen because posts about decreased libido seem to me to be pretty rare here .. .... .. i'm still hoping ...
... how long were you on lexapro before you had this effect?
... have you experienced any relief from the anxiety and stress?
... has your ADD improved?
... how much lex do you take?
... best of luck with the ED ... ... glad the viagra is helping you ...
... hang in there!TAKE CARE !!
