Well i myself hate meds that screw with sex drive. That alone for me can cause depression. If found a few meds that are great for enhancing libido. first, yohimbine,an alpha 2 antangonist, is very powerfull for libido. second is welbutrin, and third is despiramine. all these make me very in the mood, better erections and hightend climax
