> I despair of finding a med that does not cause me very significant sleepiness along with anorgasmia. I am presently on Effexor 75mg for BPII and OCD. I started the Effexor last week after a year of going without meds because these side effects were so prominent. I have found these same side effects in the past with Inderal, Paxil, Lithium, Prozac, Luvox, Imipramine, Wellbutrin, Serzone, Clomipramine, and Zoloft.

> The only time I haven't experienced anorgasmia was with Trazadone. But I took it at night and needed a bulldozer to get me going in the morning.

>Remeron works for me, but it will knock you out. It use to knock me out, but I got use to it. Strange that you got anorgasmia with Wellbutrin, it's normally added on to SSRI's to help with the problem. How long did you trial Clomipramine & Imipramine for?
Cheers,
