> Has anybody else found themselves with a complete loss of libido while taking Klonopin for a steady 2 year period - to the point of addiction?Benzodiazapines in general can cause problems with sexual functioning.
> If so, did you libido come back on it's own after you got completely off the drug - after the long process of tapering?
I experienced some sexual problems on Lyrica, which is similar to benzos. After I went off it my sex life returned to normal.
> If no, did you end up taking any other kind of drug cocktail to hit a neurotransmitter to get your libido going again?
Wellbutrin is often prescribed to help low libido problems as it boosts dopamine levesl. Stimulants will also have the same effect.
>I have no passion which leaves me hollow and sad and lonely.Get ooff the Klonopin and switch to an antidepresant.
