I can concentrate better. Too soon to tell about the sex drive.I also experienced irritability from Brintellix, but I would say that the main culprit is coming from the m-cpp metabolite of Trazodone. I've sworn off Nefazodone and Trazodone because of the anxiety and irritability that resulted from them.
