> Sorry to sound a bit 'brutal'!You didn't sound brutal at all - no worries. But your'e right - why continue the Lexapro if it isnt working or if it's causing the sex side effects.....? good question. Like you said - I'd rather be with a low sex drive and not depressed than the other way around. The weird thing is I've been on Lexapro for years and I don't know what I'd switch to.
So, I don't know what is causing my problems but they are frustrating.
