> Hi everyone,

> I notice most people have the opposite complaint to the one I do. I’m a 34 year old woman with both bipolar (under control) and ADHD, for which I recently started Wellbutrin as I can’t tolerate the stimulants well lately.
>
> Well to make a long complicated sexual history very short, the only times I have achieved orgasm in my life (except twice) has been while taking Anafranil, Desipramine and now Wellbutrin. They all make me hypersexual. I was taken off Anafranil right away. Desipramine, I was on only 50mg (along with mood stabilizers), and Icould have multiple orgasism and have sex for hours. Unfortunately I had to go off it as it really increased my rapid cycling.
>
> The inability to orgasm isn’t related to mania because I’ve been manic many, many times in my life without being on an AD. While I’d become hypersexual, I’d never orgasm.
>
> So now I’ve started Wellbutrin. On day 5, Boom! There’s my sex drive again, and thank god the ability to orgasm, and thank god my boyfriend from out of town!
>
> Any ideas?

> It’s very frustrating.

> Thanks JaniceJanice, count your blessings! Meds only interfere, for me (Prozac, Luvox, Zoloft, and to some extent, Effexor-XR). Serzone is the only med that doesn't interfere, for me.
