Agreed. It's not confined to ssri's/ad's and sexual side effects. In fact it's recently been confirmed that Vioxx increased heart attack risk for at least a year after people ceased using it, which, at this point, is to say it increased risk indefinitely since the follow-up was only for a year. Unfortunately it will be a long time before a lot of doctors begin to think outside of the dogma that they are fed by pharmaceutical companies. Presently, the few that do are often not taken seriously.
I'm sorry to hear that other people are facing this situation. There is an online group specifically for post antidepressant sexual side effects if you're interested.
