Ladies
Can’t resist your challenge to comment on sexual dysfunction and what it means to us men – well me at least.
The 15 condoms analogy was right on for me. SSRI’s are all bad for loss of sensation and difficulty or impossibility in achieving orgasm. Of course the ability to engage in the act is still there for me, it’s just that the ending is rather dull, albeit somewhat less messy. I think pdocs add wellbutrin to try to reduce this side effect of SSRIs.(Maybe I am using the ADs as a cover for problems associated with my advancing age. I don’t know.)
Dreamer – during my last severe depression I felt horny all the time. I just wanted to be close to someone physically and forget for a moment how lousy I felt. Nothing wrong with that is there?
I think men have a tough time admitting to a woman, especially if it’s someone who is not a regular partner, that there is any sort of problem although I would imagine from the woman’s perspective, delayed male climax would be much preferable to premature. No orgasm gives rise to questions like ‘What’s wrong- don’t you like me?’ or what am I doing wrong? I have just been honest in those cases.
Hope I haven’t intruded, but you guys invited it.Greg
