In reply to one more thing..., posted by michael on March 17, 2000, at 3:08:17
I have received some real help from this group.
I had been on paxil, zoloft, prozac and celexa
with horrible anorgasmia, although they all
helped tremedously with my mood. I read posts
from several women that stated effexor was not as
bad on the orgasm/sex drive. My psychiatrist
felt very doubtful and was reluctant to switch me.
I have been on the effexor for several weeks now
and my mood is the same, maybe a bit better, but
the sex stuff is much, much better. I don't feel
quite as good as when I am on no meds but much
better than I could have hoped. It makes me feel
like I don't have to choose between being happy
and being a sexual person. I just want to share
this because I finally found something that works
for me and I really feel it is worth persevering
until you find medication that is satisfactory.
Thanks to racer and others who shared their stories
on this rather 'intimate' topic!!
