You're right in some sences.
SSRI's can lession obsessions. Even so to the point of having no obsessions. This can extend to sexual and relationship behaviors.
However, there was a study done that showed that the people who were least depressed naturally (scored lowest on depression and anxiety scales), also had the least interest in sex!. One researcher concluded.. it is as if they naturally had prozac in their brains.This is true for me. When I am depressed, I seed consolation from others. When I am not depressed I am more independant, and want to stay that way.
I think a lot about this stuff too, really is a mind bender.
