Ok Friends...I have taken this before. Now I have a close close friend who's starting it. I'm trying to find as much info as I can for her...only for some reason, all my search engines are coming up with pretty much nothing. Any/all links you can find are so much appreciated!! (or anything else you think you can offer her on this subject)

Thanks all!
 
Tell your friend she can forget about orgasms while she's on it...it's very difficult to get off, and sometimes it completely destroys your sex drive...other than that, it's just like all the others....

Here's an old thread that had some good info.

Thanks Rain. This helps tons. I do remember from my days on it that my sex drive was altered somewhat, but not quite as drastically as mentioned by someone above. You just have to be with a partner who's willing to adapt to that. I think she has that kind of partner.

Thank you to everyone for your help!
 
Welbutrin is a good alternative, seems to work the same way without the orgasm suppression.

it was the opposite for me when i was on it. after i finally got off of it which ws brutal and hard as hell, my libido ran away.
 
Zoloft does tend to kill the sex drive. I know from first hand experience. I was switched to Effexor, which doesn't kill the sex drive and works 100 x better (for me at least). Try the Physicians Desk Reference for more info.
