BadBob214 Posted Wednesday at 07:20 PM Report Posted Wednesday at 07:20 PM So, I've been on antidepressants for the last 15+ years (Citalipram) Under supervision from my Dr I've been reducing my dose from 40 to 20 and now 10mg over the last year. I'm in a pretty happy and stable place now. My labido was okay while on the full dose but, lately has gone through the roof. I'm masterbating at least once and usually twice a day and meeting guys regularly for a shag. Has this happened to anyone else coming off antidepressants? 1 Quote
Moderators viking8x6 Posted Wednesday at 09:10 PM Moderators Report Posted Wednesday at 09:10 PM SSRI's (citalopram is one) definitely mess with your libido. Generally the drug reduces it, so it makes sense that cutting back on the drug would increase it. 1 Quote
BarebackedBear Posted 2 hours ago Report Posted 2 hours ago I had the opposite effect. After years of no sex drive while trying to fight The Big Sad™ alone, going on Fluoxetine not only stabilized my mood but also brought the hornies back. By the second or third week after starting it I had a good buddy out to play for the first time in over a year, he spent the whole afternoon and put four loads in me. It was awesome and I've never looked back. I'm on a low dose though so YMMV. Quote
