Guest guest Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 Sorry to hear about your situation. But you are in the right place to get all kinds of support. My suggestion: 1) don't take another anti depressant. Especially any re-uptake inhibitor Zoloft (SSRI) or Welbutrin (SNRI)2) Get plenty of exercise atleast 4/5 days a week3) Take fish oil, L-tyrosine, vitamin-D (check for vitamin D levels first) and a B-complex everyday for the next few weeks. This should increase ur libido to reasonable levels4) If you feel depressed, try therapy. Not drugs. Good luck. Subject: Hi im new- please HelpTo: SSRIsex Date: Thursday, December 30, 2010, 7:21 AM hi guys- im a female from melbourne australia glad i found this please help with suggestions or advice, so stressed about this , its consuming me ive pretty much been depressed for all my adult life,when i was in my early 20's i abused drugs which prob didnt help the situation went through a bad period 7 or so years ago and was on effexor and luvox, well helped me get my life back but after 2 years on the meds i went from a crazy sex drive to ZEROOOOOOOOOOO, 7 years i havent taken meds and still NOOO libido if i never had sex again i wouldnt care. except im married and its threatening to ruin my otherwise happy union for the last 12 months or so my depression and now anxiety some OCD has come back in a big way and ive been avoiding meds but now ive realised i need help, i cant go on like this, so i did alot of research online and found out about SSRI induced loss of libido it was comforting in a way to realise im not a freak the meds did this to me, although i havent been on them in years and it never came back thats when i found out about Wellbutrin and the amazing stories of it helping people getting their SSRI induced low libido back well my elation turned to despair when i found out its not available in Australia, now i know there are no guarantees but when you are this desperate any glimmer of hope out there becomes an obsession, if i could fix my depression, constant exhaustion and libido i would be ecstatic and from alot of the reviews ive read it can possibly cure all 3, so i went to my GP and well she gives me Zoloft, ??? so annoyed they have no idea, Wellbutrin isnt approved here, only pre packaged as Zyban for smoking cessation and she wouldnt give it to me off label either for depression so i went to another GP still the same, now i have a psychiatrist appointment in 2 weeks so im going to try my luck the way i see it if that dosent work i have 2 options order generic online (which i DEF DONT want to do) but will try anything., ive read bad stories about generic go to another GP and ask for Zyban for smoking , pretend it for smoking, i dont want to do this either as i will need to keep switching GPS to keep getting it if i find success with this pill, not sure what to do , i really need advice, are there other dopamine anti depressants that could help? from my reasearch i havent found any all i want is to get better , i dont want addictive pills, its not fair sometimes, can anyone recommend anything? i dont want to take more pills to cure what the last lot did but now i feel could it get any worse?

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2010 Report Share Posted December 31, 2010 Henrietta -- Perhaps you could _pretend_ to be a smoker, and get an " off-label " Zyban prescription that way? I hate to suggest " gaming " the medical system like that, but sometimes it's the only way to get what you need. I've been reading this list for a while. Some people get good results from Wellbutrin, some don't. It's not a _reliable_ fix for PSSD.

Guest guest Posted January 1, 2011 Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 thanks charles i have thought of that, but that will be a last resort they only give that to you for 2 months or so so if i took it for smoking cessation and had success i would have to keep changing drs, to keep getting it not really the way i want to go about it is there anything else i could try? from the research i have done some people have had success with dopamine producing drugs, does anyone know anything about this? what about accupuncture? im so desperate to fix this prob i will try anything, drs are useless, they dont belive or know about this!! > > > > > > hi guys- im a female from melbourne australia > > glad i found this > > please help with suggestions or advice, so stressed about this , its consuming me > > ive pretty much been depressed for all my adult life,when i was in my early 20's i abused drugs which prob didnt help the situation > > went through a bad period 7 or so years ago and was on effexor and luvox, well helped me get my life back but after 2 years on the meds > > i went from a crazy sex drive to ZEROOOOOOOOOOO, 7 years i havent taken meds and still NOOO libido > > if i never had sex again i wouldnt care. except im married and its threatening to ruin my otherwise happy union > > for the last 12 months or so my depression and now anxiety some OCD has come back in a big way and ive been avoiding meds but now ive realised > > i need help, i cant go on like this, so i did alot of research online and found out about SSRI induced loss of libido > > it was comforting in a way to realise im not a freak the meds did this to me, although i havent been on them in years and it never came back > > thats when i found out about Wellbutrin and the amazing stories of it helping people getting their SSRI induced low libido back > > well my elation turned to despair when i found out its not available in Australia, now i know there are no guarantees but when you are this desperate > > any glimmer of hope out there becomes an obsession, if i could fix my depression, constant exhaustion and libido i would be ecstatic > > and from alot of the reviews ive read it can possibly cure all 3, so i went to my GP and well she gives me Zoloft, ??? so annoyed > > they have no idea, Wellbutrin isnt approved here, only pre packaged as Zyban for smoking cessation and she wouldnt give it to me off label either for depression > > so i went to another GP still the same, now i have a psychiatrist appointment in 2 weeks so im going to try my luck > > the way i see it if that dosent work i have 2 options > > order generic online (which i DEF DONT want to do) but will try anything., ive read bad stories about generic > > go to another GP and ask for Zyban for smoking , pretend it for smoking, i dont want to do this either as i will need to keep switching GPS to keep getting it > > if i find success with this pill, not sure what to do , > > i really need advice, are there other dopamine anti depressants that could help? from my reasearch i havent found any > > all i want is to get better , i dont want addictive pills, its not fair sometimes, can anyone recommend anything? > > i dont want to take more pills to cure what the last lot did > > but now i feel could it get any worse? > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 2, 2011 Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 They are both precursors to the neurotransmitter dopamine. Tyrosine turns into L-dopa, then L-dopa becomes dopamine. L-dopa can be given in the form of a synthetic drug or by taking mucuna pruriens. You must make sure you are also taking other neurotransmitter precursors and necessary supplements, however, in order to maximize the benefits and to not throw your other neurotransmitters further off balance. I encourage you to read up more on amino acid therapy. I am doing it under close supervision of a healthcare provider and am seeing benefits however it is very much a science of balance. It's not just a matter of going to the local drug store and buying stuff off the shelf. > > > > From: smithhenrietta85 <smithhenrietta85@> > > Subject: Hi im new- please Help > > To: SSRIsex > > Date: Thursday, December 30, 2010, 7:21 AM > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > >  > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > hi guys- im a female from melbourne australia > > > > glad i found this > > > > please help with suggestions or advice, so stressed about this , its consuming me > > > > ive pretty much been depressed for all my adult life,when i was in my early 20's i abused drugs which prob didnt help the situation > > > > went through a bad period 7 or so years ago and was on effexor and luvox, well helped me get my life back but after 2 years on the meds > > > > i went from a crazy sex drive to ZEROOOOOOOOOOO, 7 years i havent taken meds and still NOOO libido > > > > if i never had sex again i wouldnt care. except im married and its threatening to ruin my otherwise happy union > > > > for the last 12 months or so my depression and now anxiety some OCD has come back in a big way and ive been avoiding meds but now ive realised > > > > i need help, i cant go on like this, so i did alot of research online and found out about SSRI induced loss of libido > > > > it was comforting in a way to realise im not a freak the meds did this to me, although i havent been on them in years and it never came back > > > > thats when i found out about Wellbutrin and the amazing stories of it helping people getting their SSRI induced low libido back > > > > well my elation turned to despair when i found out its not available in Australia, now i know there are no guarantees but when you are this desperate > > > > any glimmer of hope out there becomes an obsession, if i could fix my depression, constant exhaustion and libido i would be ecstatic > > > > and from alot of the reviews ive read it can possibly cure all 3, so i went to my GP and well she gives me Zoloft, ??? so annoyed > > > > they have no idea, Wellbutrin isnt approved here, only pre packaged as Zyban for smoking cessation and she wouldnt give it to me off label either for depression > > > > so i went to another GP still the same, now i have a psychiatrist appointment in 2 weeks so im going to try my luck > > > > the way i see it if that dosent work i have 2 options > > > > order generic online (which i DEF DONT want to do) but will try anything., ive read bad stories about generic > > > > go to another GP and ask for Zyban for smoking , pretend it for smoking, i dont want to do this either as i will need to keep switching GPS to keep getting it > > > > if i find success with this pill, not sure what to do , > > > > i really need advice, are there other dopamine anti depressants that could help? from my reasearch i havent found any > > > > all i want is to get better , i dont want addictive pills, its not fair sometimes, can anyone recommend anything? > > > > i dont want to take more pills to cure what the last lot did > > > > but now i feel could it get any worse? > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 2, 2011 Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 There are atleast a couple of females here that got better recently. You could check for previous messages from and for their case history and the like....Regarding the safely of L-tyrosine, I don't think anything could be as bad a prescription medication. I have used it for 6 months before. More recently, I've been taking it for 2 months. Other than making me slightly agitated, it doesn't really cause any side effects. I take 500mg just before bed. If it makes me slightly agitated, I wouldn't even know it.

Guest guest Posted January 2, 2011 Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 Anything can have side effects. You should always look up side effects for whatever you're thinking of taking. For some people, caffiene could have bad effects on the heart, as an example.

Guest guest Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 I did order Wellbutrin once a long time ago I cannot remember now where I got it from Im sorry or weather it was brand or generic- but there are lots of shops on the internet. you do have to be careful though because none of it is llegal I dont think, you dont know what there giving you weather it is safe or not. The wellbutrin didnt do anything for me anyway, the only thing that has helped is exercise and a healthy diet and lots of sleep.

Guest guest Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 If you order medication online, you should check for trustworthy reviews of the supplier, because a lot of internet suppliers of medication deliver fake medications and they are hard to distinguish from good suppliers. http://www.google.com/search?q=online+check+%22fake+medication+%22 & hl=en & client=\ firefox-a & hs=j03 & tbo=1 & rls=org.mozilla%3Anl%3Aofficial & num=10 & lr=lang_en & ft=i & cr\ = & safe=images & tbs=qdr%3Ay,qdr:y > what i wanted to ask you was about the wellbutrin, i want to give it a try, i saw in a previous post where u ordered online > can you please tell me where ? im going to see a psychiatrist this > thurs to ask for it off label, its in australia as Zyban as a > smoking cessation pill, if that doesnt work i may need to order online- the one you orderd was it generic?? i prefer the name brand if possible, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 Have you ever tried any of the dopamine agonists? They have helped " jump start " things for some people. I know " Biker " has had some significant success after suffering for many years. In the beginning of that success he used some Dostinex. There are others as well. I am trying the amino acid route of trying to boost and reactivate my dopamine. I am seeing some progress however it is slow because there is a lot of tweaking going on with the dosing. I am just trying to steer clear of the synthetic pharmaceuticals if I can help it but know that the dopamine agonists are available if all else fails. > > >> > > >> From: smithhenrietta85 <smithhenrietta85@> > > >> Subject: Hi im new- please Help > > >> To: SSRIsex > > >> Date: Thursday, December 30, 2010, 7:21 AM > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >>  > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> hi guys- im a female from melbourne australia > > >> > > >> glad i found this > > >> > > >> please help with suggestions or advice, so stressed about this , its consuming > > >>me > > >> > > >> ive pretty much been depressed for all my adult life,when i was in my early > > >>20's i abused drugs which prob didnt help the situation > > >> > > >> > > >> went through a bad period 7 or so years ago and was on effexor and luvox, well > > >>helped me get my life back but after 2 years on the meds > > >> > > >> i went from a crazy sex drive to ZEROOOOOOOOOOO, 7 years i havent taken meds > > >>and still NOOO libido > > >> > > >> if i never had sex again i wouldnt care. except im married and its threatening > > >>to ruin my otherwise happy union > > >> > > >> for the last 12 months or so my depression and now anxiety some OCD has come > > >>back in a big way and ive been avoiding meds but now ive realised > > >> > > >> i need help, i cant go on like this, so i did alot of research online and found > > >>out about SSRI induced loss of libido > > >> > > >> it was comforting in a way to realise im not a freak the meds did this to me, > > >>although i havent been on them in years and it never came back > > >> > > >> thats when i found out about Wellbutrin and the amazing stories of it helping > > >>people getting their SSRI induced low libido back > > >> > > >> well my elation turned to despair when i found out its not available in > > >>Australia, now i know there are no guarantees but when you are this desperate > > >> > > >> > > >> any glimmer of hope out there becomes an obsession, if i could fix my > > >>depression, constant exhaustion and libido i would be ecstatic > > >> > > >> and from alot of the reviews ive read it can possibly cure all 3, so i went to > > >>my GP and well she gives me Zoloft, ??? so annoyed > > >> > > >> they have no idea, Wellbutrin isnt approved here, only pre packaged as Zyban > > >>for smoking cessation and she wouldnt give it to me off label either for > > >>depression > > >> > > >> so i went to another GP still the same, now i have a psychiatrist appointment > > >>in 2 weeks so im going to try my luck > > >> > > >> the way i see it if that dosent work i have 2 options > > >> > > >> order generic online (which i DEF DONT want to do) but will try anything., ive > > >>read bad stories about generic > > >> > > >> > > >> go to another GP and ask for Zyban for smoking , pretend it for smoking, i dont > > >>want to do this either as i will need to keep switching GPS to keep getting it > > >> > > >> > > >> if i find success with this pill, not sure what to do , > > >> > > >> i really need advice, are there other dopamine anti depressants that could > > >>help? from my reasearch i havent found any > > >> > > >> all i want is to get better , i dont want addictive pills, its not fair > > >>sometimes, can anyone recommend anything? > > >> > > >> i dont want to take more pills to cure what the last lot did > > >> > > >> but now i feel could it get any worse? > > >> > > > > > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 thanks , i would definetely be checking reviews before and IF i do anything, its not something im keen on, does anyone know if u can actually buy non generic? so the REAL deal? im not keen on generic and want to try brand name Wellbutrin, although i wont have a precription for it, we dont have wellbutrin in australia, we have zyban which is used for smoking cessation and its equivalent to Wellbutrin 150 SR im going to my first psychiatrist appointment tomorrow and in soo bloody nervous, i bet she thinks PSSD dosent exist of cource it will all be due to my depression if no one believes in this there will never be a cure as no one will look for alternatives- damn im so miserable about this situation!! > > what i wanted to ask you was about the wellbutrin, i want to give it a try, i saw in a previous post where u ordered online > > can you please tell me where ? im going to see a psychiatrist this > > thurs to ask for it off label, its in australia as Zyban as a > > smoking cessation pill, if that doesnt work i may need to order online- the one you orderd was it generic?? i prefer the name brand if possible, > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 5, 2011 Report Share Posted January 5, 2011 You are wrong. It can get worse. I'm living proof. I tried welbutrin hoping that it will improve my condition, but it made it much worse. God only knows when it gets better....Stay away from welbutrin. If you think u must try something, try low doses of Dostinex or some other dopamine agonist.

Guest guest Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 Zyban for smoking cessation someone suggested using malaria to relieve anxiety, inoculation of the AIDS virus for the control of bipolar disorder but the current state of research is not lawful to encourage false hopes.

Guest guest Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 I take varied doses of 5htp, L-tyrosine, L-Lysine, L-Cysteine, and Mucuna Pruriens. In addition, the amino acids are coupled up with Selenium, Folate, Calcium, Vit. C, & Vit. B6 to help them work better and to prevent depletion of necessary supplements. The dosing changes about every 2 weeks based upon benefits and sometimes lab test results. I work with a naturalpath Dr. and have been doing this since August. I'm not where I want to be but I have seen improvements. I now sleep great, my flat mood has disappeared, I am feeling more joy, and I get periods of time when my libido and sexual function return. It still comes and goes but I am still hopefull that I will recover. My serotonin is fully in balance but my dopamine still lags behind. He is working on boosting it without compromising the balance. I'll continue to post as things progress. It definitely is a gradual process though. > > > > Have you ever tried any of the dopamine agonists?

Guest guest Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 I just posted a reply to Ann regarding the Amino Acids I take. You can see there some of the other aminos and vitamin supplements that are recommended to go together. I am working with a program called NeuroAssist (www.neuroassist.com). I'm not sure it's available by you but their website has a wealth of information you can use to educate yourself on aminos. Part of their program includes testing for neurotransmitter levels. Through the urine tests they can tell whether levels of serotonin, dopamine, ephinephrin, and norepinephrin are depleted. Mine definitely was in the the latter three.

Guest guest Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 I'm sorry you had to deal with that Dr. She was not a very compassionate individual. I hope you won't be going back. It just might be a blessing in disguise. I tried Welbutrin for only 2 mos. It did nothing for my libido but I did get chronic tinnitus (ringing in my ears) and a permanent clicking in my jaw. Neither have gone away despite not taking the drug now for more than 3 years. > > > > > >> > > > > > >> From: smithhenrietta85 <smithhenrietta85@> > > > > > >> Subject: Hi im new- please Help > > > > > >> To: SSRIsex > > > > > >> Date: Thursday, December 30, 2010, 7:21 AM > > > > > >> > > > > > >> > > > > > >> > > > > > >> > > > > > >> > > > > > >> > > > > > >> > > > > > >>  > > > > > >> > > > > > >> > > > > > >> > > > > > >> > > > > > >> > > > > > >> > > > > > >> > > > > > >> > > > > > >> > > > > > >> > > > > > >> > > > > > >> hi guys- im a female from melbourne australia > > > > > >> > > > > > >> glad i found this > > > > > >> > > > > > >> please help with suggestions or advice, so stressed about this , its consuming > > > > > >>me > > > > > >> > > > > > >> ive pretty much been depressed for all my adult life,when i was in my early > > > > > >>20's i abused drugs which prob didnt help the situation > > > > > >> > > > > > >> > > > > > >> went through a bad period 7 or so years ago and was on effexor and luvox, well > > > > > >>helped me get my life back but after 2 years on the meds > > > > > >> > > > > > >> i went from a crazy sex drive to ZEROOOOOOOOOOO, 7 years i havent taken meds > > > > > >>and still NOOO libido > > > > > >> > > > > > >> if i never had sex again i wouldnt care. except im married and its threatening > > > > > >>to ruin my otherwise happy union > > > > > >> > > > > > >> for the last 12 months or so my depression and now anxiety some OCD has come > > > > > >>back in a big way and ive been avoiding meds but now ive realised > > > > > >> > > > > > >> i need help, i cant go on like this, so i did alot of research online and found > > > > > >>out about SSRI induced loss of libido > > > > > >> > > > > > >> it was comforting in a way to realise im not a freak the meds did this to me, > > > > > >>although i havent been on them in years and it never came back > > > > > >> > > > > > >> thats when i found out about Wellbutrin and the amazing stories of it helping > > > > > >>people getting their SSRI induced low libido back > > > > > >> > > > > > >> well my elation turned to despair when i found out its not available in > > > > > >>Australia, now i know there are no guarantees but when you are this desperate > > > > > >> > > > > > >> > > > > > >> any glimmer of hope out there becomes an obsession, if i could fix my > > > > > >>depression, constant exhaustion and libido i would be ecstatic > > > > > >> > > > > > >> and from alot of the reviews ive read it can possibly cure all 3, so i went to > > > > > >>my GP and well she gives me Zoloft, ??? so annoyed > > > > > >> > > > > > >> they have no idea, Wellbutrin isnt approved here, only pre packaged as Zyban > > > > > >>for smoking cessation and she wouldnt give it to me off label either for > > > > > >>depression > > > > > >> > > > > > >> so i went to another GP still the same, now i have a psychiatrist appointment > > > > > >>in 2 weeks so im going to try my luck > > > > > >> > > > > > >> the way i see it if that dosent work i have 2 options > > > > > >> > > > > > >> order generic online (which i DEF DONT want to do) but will try anything., ive > > > > > >>read bad stories about generic > > > > > >> > > > > > >> > > > > > >> go to another GP and ask for Zyban for smoking , pretend it for smoking, i dont > > > > > >>want to do this either as i will need to keep switching GPS to keep getting it > > > > > >> > > > > > >> > > > > > >> if i find success with this pill, not sure what to do , > > > > > >> > > > > > >> i really need advice, are there other dopamine anti depressants that could > > > > > >>help? from my reasearch i havent found any > > > > > >> > > > > > >> all i want is to get better , i dont want addictive pills, its not fair > > > > > >>sometimes, can anyone recommend anything? > > > > > >> > > > > > >> i dont want to take more pills to cure what the last lot did > > > > > >> > > > > > >> but now i feel could it get any worse? > > > > > >> > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 My experience with psychaitrists has always been like this and I think I have worked they are like that. They learn psychiatry over a number of years and see all these appalling cases where people seem quite mad and they also see what the drugs do to them. Because their seniors prescribe these drugs willy nilly it becomes accepted as the norm and it doesn't matter if these people get damaged by the drugs as they see them as hopeless cases anyway. Many people hate the drugs and being treated by pschiatrists as bad and subhuman people devoid of any rights or dignity, and so they rebel but psychiatry clamps down on them with even more horrible drugs. Rather than helping people psychiatrists are really at war with their patients. Now when it comes to people with depression, or anxiety, etc, they keep this indifferent approach because they have become so hard to human suffering (and the worst of this suffering is caused by their terrble drugs). To them, we are all idiots who don't know what is best for us, so they talk to us rudely, but this would never happen in mainstream medicine where people are considered equal. It is time for this profession to stand aside and let someone else take over. So bring on the psychologists and pschotherapists because they have treatments that really do work.
