dear vornan,

thank you for your reply. i saw a psychiatrist three days ago, and he refused to acknowledge the existence of PSSD.he said i have a mood disorder and prescribed risperdal and neurolith(lithium carbonate).i told him my problem was sexual dysfunction, and knew these drugs were not going to help in that dept.but he wanted me to take these drugs anyway.i took one dose, but then decided not to continue because i didn't think it would help. he said i should see an endocrinologist.i have an appointment with him tomorrow. i know he won't be happy to know i didn't take my medication, but i'll try to reason with him. if you have any points i can say to him plz let me know. i think you're right that my problem is either to do with low dopamine or testosterone. if it's low dopamine, then i'm probably screwed for life. or is there a chance of increase in dopamine

level with the passage of time?

regards,

os
