What are your experiences with sexual dysfunction while on SSRI antidepressants? |
Do some of you have anorgasmia (not being able to orgasm) while taking SSRI antidepressants? Or not? Which SSRI seems to have the least amount of sexual dysfunction? If you do have sexual dysfunction while on an SSRI how do you go about telling your sexual partner about it? Are you honest with them? I've had some problems with SSRI. Be honest with him, but also be willing to explore. When I was younger I thought orgasm was what it was all about. Now I have discovered sensuallity and there are multiple avenues. Also we have found that many times playfullness has ended up in orgasm. There are psycological factors in this. The self fullfilling prophecy "I can't achieve orgasm, therefore don't try." By enjoying each other's closeness you may be surprised what happens. no experience. I'm on Effexor, and my sex drive isn't as strong as it was before I took Effexor, but I can still orgasm easily and have a good sex life. I have not been able to find an SSRI antidepressant that does not cause some type of sexual dysfunction. These antidepressants basically make you not be able to feel your partner much at all during sex. It is possible to reach an orgasm it just takes a long time. It is a good idea to tell your partner. Tell your partner why you are on the drug and about its side affects. If it鈥檚 a good relationship your partner should understand. |
