Thanks for sharing your experience.
I have been taking tianeptine myself. It definitely boosted my libido, but I'm not sure if it helped with the ejaculator anhedonia - simply because I've never connected the two before.
Tianeptine is known to potentially facilitate brain plasticity. Still, I don't get the impression that there is a crowd out there who had their post-SSRI problems fixed with tianeptine.
What I didn't mention was that ever since my Paxil adventure, my erections haven't been nearly as hard. Again, I used to think it was age. But I'm only 33!! So now I definitely see the connection with the SSRI.
I'd like to add that clomipramine (aka Anafranil), the tricyclic antidepressant that is about as strong an SRI as Paxil, gave me far worse sexual dysfunction than Paxil or Luvox or Prozac or Zoloft ever gave me. (Luvox, in fact, hardly gave me any sexual dysfunction whatsoever).
Clomipramine really made me wonder what the hell I was doing while having sex.
