Hey there. Effexor , ex-depakote user hear.
Re libidio, do you have a partner. I mean is there lack of stimulation or nust plain now desire? All the meds above help with ssri side sexual side effects. Also , so does wellbuterin, buspar and a antihistimine you doc would know but it escapes me now (cytrolert???)
I now use lamictal vs depakote. You might want to try that. I does much the same as depakote yet seems to help depression more.
When depressed deeply I use effexor, a great med I agree, but if I stay on it too long after the dep lift I get manic, so go back to an ssri. I agree as to why it stimulates you and docs often use it for that effect + the dual mechanisms it works on.
good luck,
tony
