Alright, what gives? Lamictal is supposed to be relatively neutral with respect to sexual function. (I've even found references to it being pro-sexual.)
BUT, I'm now at 50 mg of Lamictal for a couple of days (plus 7.5 mg BuSpar) and I feel like the works have been turned off. It's this weird feeling. Kind of like the tendons/muscles around my groin are pulling a bit tighter, somehow cutting off the blood flow to the old member. (I'm male.) I don't exactly remember, but this seems similar to my reaction to Celexa. I haven't had complete ED yet, but feel like I'm heading that way.
And this, of course, happens to be right when I'm actually feeling alright again on the higher Lamictal dose. I'm starting to worry that my lot in life is either to feel good or to have my sexual function. (The two neutral or pro-sexual ADs I've tried made my psychic state worse.)
Has anyone else (particularly males) had sexual dysfunction on Lamictal? Can I expect this to last a while, or is there a chance that it's going to be transient?
Thanks,
