In reply to Weaning Effexor for 6 wks - sex drive is back!!, posted by ST on May 14, 2002, at 3:24:45
> I'm a nympho again!
> Before SSRIs, I had a REALLY healthy sexual appetite. Even on Wellbutrin and Depakote together...Well, I've been weaning off Effexor for about 6 weeks now. I'm now down to about 3 mg a day. The stuff is so hard to get off. Even though I have flu symtoms and feel sick as a dog most of the time, I want to have sex with my boyfriend so much more than before. Also, my ability to orgasm is back to normal as well as my ability to have multiple orgasms...so there is hope!!
> My boyfriend came in to my life about 5 years ago, *right* as I was going on to an SSRI. So He's never experienced the *real me*, sexually speaking. He's a bit frightened. hee hee hee...
> Sarah
That's great news! Gives me hope!! My boyfriend has
never experienced the real sexual me either! And like
you, before the ssri, I had quite the drive! I hope
one day I can get off these things and re-experience
that deep joy!!
