I don't know which is the cause of the impotence i'm experiencing. I take 20mg of prozac. I was taking 30mg of buspar with it, but the buspar was really making me feel no antidepressant effect and very funky. Now that i'm not on buspar, i can feel the drug, except now i have not only gone anorgasmic, but also totally flat...i couldn't get it up if i had a whole strip joint working on me.
Anyways, i am trying to figure out if this dropping of buspar is the cause of me going totally flat suddenly, like a day ago when i quit it. I'm hoping this is a temporary reaction to the removal of buspar. I remember being on Lexapro and i got no impotence but i did get some anorgasmia.
Or if this is the effect of Prozac (i started it 13 days ago which i know would already cause me some anorgasmia) that i had never experienced.
Opinions are very welcome.

Each of us is different.In my case Prozac has the least side-effects on libido/erection of all the SSRI meds in the US.
As you have found out, that varies from person to person.
I have no experience with Buspar, so I cannot comment on that part of the equation.
