In reply to sex and ADs?!?! okay, honestly..., posted by iforgotmypassword on June 24, 2005, at 10:32:03
I'm sorry that you feel so bad. I can imagine that if you feel badly enough, sex is the last thing on your mind. But in other cases, such as mine, people are sometimes prescribed SSRIs when they don't really need them. IMO they are vastly overprescribed.
I wanted to just stick with valium when I had anxiety back in 2001. But, to cut a long story very short, my psychiatrist coerced me into taking celexa. I took the drug for two years until my sexual functioning totally collapsed in 2003. Now I have no libido to speak of with weak orgasms.
Sex had always been extremely important to me and I loved it. Now that part of my life is apparently gone for good. It's amazing to me that a so-called "antidepressant" can do this. It basically ripped out part of my personality and destroyed my life. I will go to the courts eventually. So, I can see things from your perspective, try to see them from mine.N
