Is Klonopin the only benzo that doesn't cause problems with libido and ED? I've been on klonopin, xanax, and now valium, and both xanax and valium killed my sex drive but klonopin did not. Klonopin did make me more grouchy and irritable though and was less effective for anxiety. Xanax and valium also made it hard to get an erection while klonopin did not. Haven't tried ativan or any others.

I just recently started lamictal for my bipolar disorder and take it in combination with Prozac and Xanax. I have been loving the new me and the ability to control my anxiety, depression and mood swings, but I'm experiencing a crazy side effect. My sex drive is through the roof!!! I'm a 27 year old female and have always loved sex and had a high sex drive, but since starting the lamictal I find myself turned on all the time. I'm only up to 75 mg and my doctor says that dose will continue to increase until I get up to 200mg. I can go for hours and sometimes stay up at night feeling like I could orgasm with just 1 touch from a man. When my boyfriend and I have sex, I have multiple orgasms and they are incredibly intense. I've always been able to squirt if the sex was intense and I was really turned on, but now I'm so wet and I squirt every time I have an orgasm. My body shakes uncontrollably and the next day I'm sore like I'm training for the Olympics. Every time I relax I have an intense hunger for sex and to be touched. I can fantasize for hours and my entire body tingles without being touched. Is this normal? Will my sex drive continue to increase as my medication dosage increases? Do any other women experience this? I don't mind at all, lol, but sometimes I can't stop thinking about sex to save my life. Any ideas or input?

I am 23 yr old male and I take invega sustenna shots every month for psychosis and since then there is almost no pleasure from orgasms... has anyone ever experienced this I would like to hear your opinions and stories... My doctor is going to try lowering the dose and if that doesn't work he will try Abilify...

so since taking invega sustenna I cannot experience any pleasure from orgasms.. no more intense feeling nothing anyone else experiencing this and will all antipsychotics cause this? would like to hear your story and what meds you take or have taken

I'm having lack of sexual feelings, trouble reaching an orgasm all of the fun sexual side effects that come with taking certain medications I don't want to have sex at all, look at other people sexually, become aroused. I'm basically null and void sexually. I wasn't always like this ...only the last couple years. I'm only taking low doses of three medications: Prozac, Seroquel and PRN ativan ( which I take almost every night though). I suspect Prozac is the reason why, but on a such a low dose? Or could it be that I am just sort of still depressed... I don't usually feel the typical depression stuff for me ( crying, not wanting to leave the house, not eating. etc.) but maybe I am depressed and don't know it? What's with the lack of sexual interest then? Should it be something I talk to my Pdoc about?
