> I would try Luvox, its the only SSRI shown not to decrease sex drive. I found it very effective however it caused severe insomnia for me so I had to stop...but that is not a common side effect and it is sleep promoting for plenty of people.
I tried 5 mg lexapro for 1-2 days, and it did hurt my libido a bit, and I think it caused me memory damage...I checked its receptor profile and it has some muscarinic receptor affinity, so that must be the reason.
So I want to try Luvox as I read it shouldn't have memory sideffects beacause it doesn't have muscarinic affinity+ Luvox has agonist effect on omega1 recptors, which modulate NMDA recptors (=so it can help schizophrenia simptoms and cognitive simptoms of schizophrenia)Did any1 tried Luvox ? how does it feel compared to other ssri in memory and sexual regard?
