I did the Ginkgo Biloba thing (240 mg/day in divided doses) for 8 weeks with absolutely no affects. No benefits, no side affects, nothing. I take 200 mg zoloft & 300 mg wellbutrin. I think it is a placebo (though I DID want it to work!).

> I would recommend that you try adding Ginkgo. A medical trial showed success with SSRI induced sexual dysfunction with 240 mg per day of Ginkgo(120 twice a day). I take Celexa and the Ginkgo has helped me a lot. I only take 120 mg per day. Give it about 2 weeks to start working and 4 weeks for a full effect. Ginkgo can act as an anticoagulant just like aspirin. So if you currently have bleeding problems, check with your doctor first.
