Thanks everyone so far for your feedback.
I guess I might as well try a PDE5 inhibitor first. I can already imagine the weird looks I'll be getting when a person of my young age hands in a Viagra prescription...
Concerning the other suggestions, I have already tried the 5-HT2 antagonist cyproheptadine which I found ineffective. Are there any other drugs in this class that you would suggest? I know that atypical antipsychotics are also 5-HT2 antagonists, but do they have this effect only at high doses?
I think I'll suggest a dopamine agonist like pramipexole or ropinirole to my psychiatrist as well since they look promising.
I am concerned about the phenylephrine suggestion though, as it seems to have the standard MAOI warning. I know that these warnings are not always accurate though, such in the case of purely noradrenergic TCAs such as desipramine. Is there a reference you could post showing that it is safe to take with an MAOI?
