Hi Lawrence,

Haven't you noticed other threads in this forum ? SSRIs are notorious for destroying human sexuality. Desire phase, orgasmic phase, and ejaculation all can be impaired and worst of all these damage seem to be very long lasting, even after you quit them entirely. I am an unfortunate victim of SSRI experiment. Still on prozac, because of a psychological dependence (or call it recurrent depression)I am suffering a significant loss of libido and penile tumescence. Erection is very soft and orgasm is quite pleasureless. I have used over ten different antidepressants in my life, and nothing made my sexuality more worse like the one I am still taking. The best advise I can give you is quit the drug you are taking now before it causes any serious damage and try a quite different antidepressant(even those old faithful tricyclics worth a try in this case). I should be very cautious over this advise because, the new psychiatric strategy is "If a drug is proven effective to a patient, Don't change it at all". But at the cost of sexuality, a drug doesn't worth a try. So take care ,
HIBA
