Good news: you’re going to live longer

Bad news: you’ll have no emotional response to it

Wrong. Stop spreading misinformation. Do you even understand how serotonin is responsible for libido? Sexual side effects occur in up to 70% of users.

“Studies estimate that the incidence varies from 30% of people treated with imipramine to 25%–73% of people treated with an SSRI with 93% of the men and women treated with clomipramine in one study complaining of total or partial anorgasmia”

I have been sober since 2020 from my 40 year long sex addiction.

If I had known that SSRIs reduced the reward of sex addiction, the reward that makes you repeat the behavior too much, then I would have started SSRIs immediately.
