I take Lamictal, Seroquel and Effexor to treat bi-polar desease for eleven months. I have noticed a lack of libido. As a matter a fact I feel as though I have no libido at all. Currently I have no boyfriend so this state of being does not bother me in the least.
However, someone could come along. No matter how miniscule the chances.
I would like to know if anyone has any tips on how to deal with having no libido due to medications?

By your name, I'm assuming you're female. Manic's got a good point! In that way, it must be awful for guys!!

I have some idea what your talking about. I've known women who couldn't reach orgasm due to anti-depressant drug. Me either.
Strangely, a little bit of cymbalta (talking a dozen pellets) emptied from a capsule) can do wonders for the libido and sex life.
Cymbalta is really an aphrodesiac but in "therapeutic" doses, renders both men and women, impotent. Cymbalta is the best anaorgasimic drug I've ever taken. If you want to be frustrated (man or woman) try Cymbalta.
Here's my secret: a little, few grains of cymbalta, is a dynamite aphrodesiac. I'm a guy and had multiple orgasisms. Only a few pellets from the capsule though. If I take even one 30mg cap, I'm down for 3 days - so watch it.
Maybe I will be blocked for saying this: Cymbalta in larege doses will make both genders anaorgasim. You simply can't have an orgasm.
But if you take a tiny enough amount, talking 3-4 mgs of the pellets, the orgasm is exquiste.
Cymbalta at a very low dose has always increased my libido. I mean a frenzied 3x per day. But I have to watch the dose.
Can't someone block me. I'm in heat.
