Re: Is this normal?

February 17, 2011

Your case is a bite unique but not unheard off. Several people have had

developed PSSD some time after SSRI use even though they return to normal. Its

is possible that repeatable exposure made you susceptible and the Remrone was

the stra that broke your libedos back. Also the chemical reactions that cause

PSSD are unique to the individual. I have PSSD caused by Zoloft but for some

stange reason Wellibutrin makes thing worse when 30% of people it makes them

better. My adivice is to get your testosteron checked and if its a little low,

take some Clomide. If its not then take a look into a dopmine agonist. Hoever

dopmine agonist (I use Amantadine) produce somewhat unnature sexual function

that makes sex more mechanical in nature and can cause more damage to you sexual

functional. To date nothing have made me go back to normal over an extended

period of time, so I dont knoe if I delayed natural regeneration. Howver, I

have had PSSD for 5 years so waiting so my patients is up. I did not take

anything for six months after PSSD and had no change, some people did recover

but not all like me. As far as the girl friend is concern, if you want to keep

her you can take Vagara and have pleasureless erection that will do the job as

long as you dont mind being a living breathing vibrator. So that pretty much

all your choices. Hope something works for you and one last peievce of advice,

stay away from any antidepressent, even Wellbutrine that helped many on this

site had caused sexaul dysfunction in others but if you get desperate you might

give it a try, taht is if you are sure you have nothing to lose. Hope things

work out.

> Hi I'm new to this group. I am now 21 and I have been on and off

anti-depressant medication since I was 16. I stopped taking ssris when I was 18.

I had been off of meds for three years and my sex function was completely

normal. Just about 8 months ago I was prescribed welbutrin. I went off of that

and sexually I was normal again. I was then put on parnate. I experienced sexual

dysfunction so I quit that. Again sexually I was back to normal. I had been off

parnate about two weeks when I started remeron. I was on only 15 mgs starting

dose for about a month. I experienced sexual dysfunction on this drug too. Which

was surprising to me because I heard that doesn't happen with remeron. I will

add that I was worried about getting pssri sexual dysfunction while on remeron

because I had read about it. I have now been off of remeron for about 5 weeks

and still have the same sexual side effects. I can still function but, my sex

drive is diminished as well as sensitivity. Now I'm wondering if I should be

worried? it's been 5 weeks but typically on other drugs my full function

returned within days. I'm worried because I have just started a relationship

with a girl for the 1st time in my life. We have had sex once and I didn't

perform like I would expect. My doc says to wait it out but, this problem is

causing me distress and I already have enough anxiety. I also am wondering if

remoron has caused anyone here post ssri dysfunction? I was hoping someone

knowledgeble could give me sone info on my situation. I would really appreciate

it. Thank you

I am thinking about making a visit, as well, to Dr Ducharme, as I live in

Philadelphia (about 6 hours driving).

But the leader on this stuff is Dr Goldstein and I am thinking about flying out

to San Diego to have an appointment with him.

After seeing some legit success with my Dostinex trial maybe he can tell me

which doses would provide constant results.

If I could have the same constant results as I did the other day, while not

nearly what I had before, it would be MUCH preferable to what I have been going

through, and certainly a bearable way to live.

I just cannot live with these ups and downs. When love is the biggest desire in

my life, and having PSSD affect this, Its just no way to live. There has to be

an answer.
