I think part of the problem is that SSRIs are so potently serotonergic that they adversely affect dopamine...if you'll notice, sexual side effects are less of a problem with TCAs, which dont inhibit serotonin reuptake as much as the SSRIs. Benzos can affect libido either way...some people lose desire and don't perform as well sexually; some people experience a bit (or a lot of) "disinhibition" and become more interested in sex.
