Anti depressants

Hi I’ve been put on anti depressants, does anyone know or have experience with it effecting orgasming and sex? I felt a lot of pleasure but then I struggled to orgasm. Normally I orgasm after 3 mins. This time it took 10 mins and when I finally did, it felt like the most awful orgasm ever??? How do I get through this?

What antidepressants are you on and do you have any diagnosis of anything? I only ask because that widely affects your orgasm and I know so many ways to help with it, the advice just changes based on the medicine and diagnosis

@Star hi I would love very much to hear your advice please. I have depression, anxiety and ADHD. I take pristiq for depression and vyvanse for adhd. My sex drive is almost non existent at this point. It takes me like 30 mins at least to organism and that’s with a vibrator as well as sex. I would really appreciate your advice if you have any for me.

Hi I don’t want to scare you or anything but just being honest. My anti depressants have def killed my sex drive. I’m on other meds as well but I know most anti depressants have the side effect that it Lowers libido and generally lowers your ability to orgasm. It really sucks bc it feels like I have to choose between not being depressed and being able to enjoy sex. 😕

@Star Sertraline 50mg. How does diagnosis work because I told my doctor I know I have anxiety and depression, he asked how it affects me and I told him and I told him how my parents both are diagnosed with it. I’m sure he’s written it down on my health record but he said I’ll have to have checkups to see how the medicine is

If it doesn’t dry your 🐱up , it eats at ur brain slowly. Don’t drop the meds without speaking to ur doctor, but also try to actively find something herbally or holistic that works instead. ChatGPT will give u plenty of suggestions

@Jeri I’m sorry to hear that and yeah I’m feeling the same currently

@Tari that wasn’t my issue, I was ready for sure. I’ve tried therapy throughout my life, I haven’t found it massively helpful and struggle day to day. Is there any specific herbal things you can recommend?
