Once again, I'm a female and YMMV and usually does :-) Low dose Serzone (100mgs at bed-time/or whenever :-) kicked my anorgasmia in the rear. In regard to sexual apathy, losing the SSRI (Prozac in this case) and eventually the Wellbutrin did wonders. The fear-factor took a bit more work (or lack of work as the case may be). I had started to associate intimacy with disaster, but after some time without anorgasmia I started to relax and that in itself increased the sexual apathy to a sexual hunger.
I know it's quite a bit more complicated in the men's department, and I can't imagine having to deal with actual physical and visible performance issues. The Stim's are always a possibility, although you have stated in the past that Stim's, Ritalin in particular are a little too activating for your comfort???
Maybe Bupropion could add something, but I don't have a handle on the pharmo-dynamics of Wellbutrin, so I'm not sure what the exact applied individual logic is for utilizing it. What activities in Amisulpride and Adrafinil seem to cause the sexual difficulties? I've tried to keep current with all the wonderfully detailed info you've been posting but still don't comprehend all of these dynamics. I wish I had more to offer than luck and well wishes :-)
My thoughts are with you John!!!
