I took 600 mg's of lithium daily for 1 month and lexapro 20 mg's for 1 month prior to that. My only sexual side effects were delayed climax which maybe wasnt so bad for my partner :)My side effects did include insomnia, shorter patience, and almost out of control. I slammed my car into a ditch at 100 mph due to road rage which isnt me by any means.
Now I am on depakote (2nd day) and I feel like me but maybe sedated.
