This is where IMHO you need to consider going back to the drawing board after you have pondered your pros and cons
1) I have heard the Cialis and Viagra can help with maintaining an erection, but not with lack of libido, nor with anorgasma. Not a doctor, but its what I've heard. If anyone else can bring something to the table, please post!
2) Have your meds stabilized you? If you change them, will it mean catastrophe, or rather some discomfort as you look to other options? For some, the weight gain is a tolerable side effect as to change meds would result in some pretty hefty consequences. For others, it is not an accetpable side effect and they are willing to deal with discomfort as they try other medications, plain and simple.
3) Does your psychiatrist listen to you when you question his/her methods of treating you, and also address your concerns, or do they blow you off and act as through you are ignorant or neurotic?
If they blow off your concerns, I'd consider terminating the relationship. Remember, we pay them to treat us as individuals with individual needs and unique biochemical make ups, of which they need to address to the best of their ability.
There's my input!
