I don't think I would mind being on meds for the
rest of my life if they didn't cause sexual side
effects. Without my full spectrum of sexuality
(what I experience physically/spiritually without
medication), I don't feel like a whole person. That
whole issue causes me a lot of pain, saddness and
frustration. But I've always had to make that compromise. It's like
"Hmmm....no sexuality or suicidal? I guess I'll
pick no sexuality"...but what a choice to have to
make. Unfortunately my depression dosen't seem to
respond to anything other than ssri's. Although actually
my hope has be re-sparked by starting lamictal. I
really feel it's antidepressant effect and I'll wondering
if I can lower my prozac to a more tolerable degree when
I take the lamictal....cross your fingers for me everyone...
