In reply to Effexor to Celexa and sex, posted by daisy467 on February 3, 2009, at 21:31:30
Hi daisy467
I'm stating Effexor next week (after trying a host of medications for anxiety in the past).
Did you take the Effexor or Celexa before bedtime to avoid the 'loss of libido'??
> Hi - just posting that I used to be on Effexor and went off when I found out I was pregnant. Got thru two weeks of the brain zaps pretty well.

I asked him if it would make a difference taking it before bed rather than the morning. I tried and WHOA - what a difference!
