For me they did not kill my sex drive but made me unable to cum. But the psychiatrist said that since I don't have a girlfriend so that's not a problem right?

I'm in this meme and I don't like it.

jk I don't have a girlfriend

I dropped my meds cold turkey when that happened like a decade ago, and told my current GP I'd do it again if he put me on anything that affected my libido.

He showed me though, I'm pretty sure my libido is up after getting the dosage sorted.

I **** hate some off the pills my partner has to take. In 2025 we had sex only 3 times. I am so darned horny sometimes but get no help. Bought toys to do it myself but it is not the same.

He had his dokter subscribe some kind off 'blue pill' ( not the famous one but like that ). His libido is so low he did not even bother to take one.

Even his sexsomniac nights are reduced to almost nothing. He sometimes has his 'feel if it is a woman next to me' move. And the 'nipples need to be there' move. But no wood for me even so that i am manually trying to get him to show his growing capacities. Frustrating to be awakend for nothing.

And than a few weeks ago i went to his gaming room and noteced him on porn. With a erection in the hand stroking his way to enjoyment. I felt really unwanted there. I don t care for the porn ( stupid soft stuff. boring imo ) i was more upset he did not come to me to have his way with me.

So i would say... A dickie ... yes i remember.

Mine actually increased my sex drive... But, they made my dick not work.

It's like going to see your favorite band and going deaf right before they go on stage. Yeah, you got to enjoy the opening bands, but you didn't get to enjoy the main event.

Luckily my fingers and tongue still work.

My SSRIs make everything take longer. A lot longer. We're both like dead tired before finishing.

Pharmacist here: The antidepressants most associated with reduced libido are the SSRIs (fluoxetine, sertraline, citalopram, etc) and the SNRIs (venlafaxine, duloxetine). However, there are options that aren't associated with this symptom such as: bupropion, and mirtazipine.

Ask your psychiatrist (or PCP) if there's an option available for your circumstances. Imho not enough people give enough feedback to their physicians about their medication regimines. Finding the meds best suited for you is often best framed as a conversation instead of a demand.

Soon enough (-ish) we'll have genome-specific personalized medicine so this sort of inconvenience will all be largely a thing of the past.

My favorite is when the guy goes off his meds

Honestly, it's the same for me. Very sad. Can't cum, don't enjoy my orgasms as much, barley feel like having sex or masturbating.

The question is: Did your depression cause your sex drive, or did your sex drive cause your depression, or are these two entirely unrelated and only coincidentally correlated?

Do you really need a sex drive to enjoy titties? 🤔

That dopamine - talk we had also. He sais the same.

Also the fact you said about the bad feelings cause he can not lift off we also talked about.

I also do not blaim him. He needs the pills. I want him to live a good life ( not depressed ) . But i would not mind those pills would work different.

Tkx for the info

I'd rather be depressed and still be able to cum than whatever benefits anti depressants are going to offer. I'm pretty sure most of my depression is due to the state of the world anyway. Pills aren't gonna change that.

Porn will do the same.
