I'm sure you've heard of the "sexual side effects" of SSRIs which most people seem to think means that you cannot achieve or sustain an erection. This is a side effect, but a very uncommon one. The much more common one is that it is much harder to orgasm when on these SSRIs. If you want to take SSRIs to help your sexual drive you must know that you do not need to take them as a daily prevention dose. The SSRIs should be taken 2-3 hours before expected sexual activity. As to dosage, well, you will probably need to experiment. Generally, 20mgs of either should do the trick for you unless you have a severe case in which sex therapy may be best for you But if you have health insurance, by all means, get yourself to a doctor! If you don't have health insurance, see if you can score one of SSRI drugs from a friend. One in five Americans has been prescribed an SSRI in their lifetime so you might not have to try hard to find some leftovers. One pill (or dose) probably won't do it. Try a low dosage for a few days and see how things go each night. If this doesn't work, up the dosage to the moderate level and continue. If this still doesn't work, try another. Prozac seems to "cause the problem" most often (i.e. it might work best for you) but will stay in your system for the longest period of time. This could be good or bad, depending on whether you see any of the other side effects as well. Zoloft and Paxil both have much shorter half lives. If it still doesn't help, don't force the issue and try working on your Kegels.
