It is probably more psychological than psychiatric. Well everything eventually is reductionist to psychiatric/biochemical, but I think its just that some good mood may have returned to you.


Because several of those atypicals you mentioned actually have a more esoteric opposite effect of reduction of sex drive than SSRIs due to a regulation of "prolactin levels".
