OK, tried the Wellbutrin - no good for my tendency to suffer from panic/anxiety. Switched to Prozac which seemed to work well enough that I met a wonderful young woman. Unfortunately, I had little to no desire and difficulty for sex. So I quickly quit the prozac. For those wondering, yes the sex comes back and is great again.
So, I actually am feeling pretty good over all and the new relationship has certainly much if not everything to do with it. But I'm still thinking that I may want to pursue an AD. If not right now, down the line. I certainly don't want to be where I was a few months ago.
My guess is all the SSRI's will probably all do a number on my sex drive. At least is seems to be a prevelant complaint with all of them. Wellbutrin is out due to heightened anxiety and Effexor out because I already have a tendancy to slip into a high normal blood pressure.
Serzone seems like it might not be a bad option. Anyone on it care to comment. My three concerns with Serzone are:
1. How effective of an AD is it?
2. How dangerous is the liver thing?
3. Will it affect my sex drive/performance like prozac?
