However, they will probably increase anxiety. Wellbutrin would be very useful as well. That might also cause anxiety, but not as much as the stimulants,and it might go away after a week or two.

A few other "pro-sexual" options that no-one seems to have mentioned may be yohimbine and mirtazapine (Remeron), as well as hormones such as DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone) and testosterone. All of them are, of course, associated with risks of adverse effects.
