does anyone know of an alternative to seroxat. treated for social phobia. without side effect, lack of libido.
341521
seroxat is part of the drug group selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors all of which have similar side effects, all are indicated for depression but have effects with social phobia. But as people react to differing drugs differently you may get lucky (literally) with an alternative within this group. If not herbal remedies such as st. johns wort may be useful but remember to discuss any change with your doctor as they may interact even if you stopped taking upto 2 weeks ago depending on the drug you stopped and going on to.\n\ngood luck

I was diagnosed borderline.. /by polar about a year ago... they put me on Saroquel and I'm a lot better now.  I know I was hard to live/deal with.  You just have to be patient if you love the person.  Saroquel was a life saver for me though.

I just looked up some meds today and their generics for someone else. I don't think that there is a generic Paroxatine-CR. I will double check for you though if I can find the right site again. I'll come back if i have more info for you,or you may want to call a pharmacy;they can tell you right away and give you the pro's and con's of switching. Your doctor would also have this info readily available to you. I know there are pamphlets in clinic offices that describe all the SSRI's very well.

I would look in a totally different direction to get relief.\n\nThere is a one-time treatment Atlasprofilax that usually makes the such symptoms disappear - of course there is no guarantee.\n\nI have experienced the amazing effects myself... :-)\n\nNow, the treatment is available in California and Europe only, costing approx. 220 dollars. And it's worth to travel a far way to make the experience!

Currently I am taking Xanex and Lexapro. The Lexapro is working so well that I rarly have to use the Xanex. Lexapro has side effects as all drugs do, and they are super bad for the first few days (nausia, tired) but once you get past that it is great. I have been on it for 2 weeks and I went to the bank today without freaking out, and without Xanex.So I love it. I took Zoloft for a while and it made me feel different. In a bad weird way. I love the way that Lexapro makes me feel. Well I am not as sexually aroused and can't climax right now, but hey it's not perminant and it is going to fix things.

Effexor, Zoloft, Celexa, and Lexapro all caused me sexual side effects including decreased libido. Generally, the SSRI's (the last 3 I named plus Prozac, Paxil, etc) are known for it.

Zoloft is well known for making people lose their sex drive, tell your doctor and ask to change to another one, the last thing you need on top of depression is misery over your lack of interest in sex.\nThere are many different types of anti depressant, you don't have to stick with this one

Try Wellbutrin XL, got of the other Zoloft b/c of the same thing, and the new med works good. Just keep an eye on it and switch slowly, reducing one while adding the other.

You could try an additional medication which is specifically designed to increase your sex drive.  AVLIMIL is an example of an herbal remedy that serves this function, but I would imagine that there are others as well.  You should talk to both your doctor and pharmacist about possible drug interactions and side effects in order to find the best combination for you.  This way you will be able to continue taking the Paxil and hopefully enhance your nonexistant libido at the same time.

Try the drug Citalopram. It is a anti depressant used for mood disorders. It is also used for premature ejaculation unannounced to me. I was taking it because I am a bit off a hot head but, anyway. I had to get off of it because I do not have premature ejaculation problems and it was causing me not to ejaculate. I could have sex for an hour or two and still nothing it got to the point where I would have sex until I was exhausted or until my wife told me to get the hell of off her..lol with no success.. I just couldn't get off. It sounds like this medicine would be perfect for you your hyper sensitive so it would probably give you about 20-30 mins tops before you reached ejaculation. Ask your doc and give it a shot. I could have used this stuff a couple of times when I was single..lol Good Luck hope this helped

Hi, I'm embarrassed to say that I do the same thing sometimes. Ill  go weeks without barely even thinking about food then go on these crazy eating frenzies and then I feel like shit afterwards. I'm not sure why we do this, its a truly sad thing and I'm taking two perscriptions to calm me down so I dont'  do it one is Xanex and the other is Zoloft. Talk to your doctor and tell him what's up..If not just try to GET OUT OF THE HOUSE and dont' get caught in the "funk" of the eating binge. Trust me I know exactly what your saying but good luck....

Welburtin as someone else said is the only really effective one that has no sexual side effects. Zoloft, Prozac, other SSRIs and Effexor  and Cymbalta can cause this in some and not in others, It is a crap shoot. Some doctors have done some trials where they told their patients to stop taking the meds on a Thursday so they could get it on over the weekend and start again Sunday morning and had some success. I am sorry I do not have a reference for you but you could talk to your doctor about it. I personally would rather be depressed than have a limp noodle, but that is just me.\n\nOh, and I forgot to add that the drug companies are scrambling to make an ssri that doesn't cause sexual side effects because it is going to be a huge money maker, so give that some time.

I have tried alot of the anti-depressant medicines, and all had bad side effects. My seritonin levels are already high, so I learned that positive thinking in everyday and every situation was my cure. Helping other people with their problems is also very uplifting. Physically tell yourself everyday that you are somebody. We all go through depression at some point in our life, just remember that you can handle anything, and most importantly that life always goes on. Tommorrow will be a better day, and the day after that one even better. Best of luck to you and your health.I find this website very uplifting everyday, hope it works for U as well.

Ha, that's a good one.  Do some searches on ogoplex, roplex, and viacil supplements.  There's a combination of saw palmetto and other herbs that actually can work very well...maybe not quite Peter North well but it makes a difference.  Also - testosterone boosting supplements help as well.  Vitrix is one of the high quality/potency tribulus tablets that is used for promoting muscle growth.  It works by tricking your body into creating more testosterone.  I think you can see the correlation here.  I have a few friends in their 50's that are swearing by this combination, as well as adding some L-arginine or nitric oxide supplements.  It worked well enough to get them to give up the viagra, so I'd say it's pretty effective.

I have anxiety and I take Lexapro and Xanex for mine. They are the best that I have taken so far. I took Zoloft and Paxil, both made me feel manic and zombie like.

I take paxil for anxiety and panic attacks. It has saved me and my marriage. I did all the compulsive things that your wife is doing. Obsessive / Compulsive disorder is another illness which many times goes hand in hand with depression and/or anxiety.\n\nTo answer your questions, Our relationship has improved drastically. I am back to myself and feel so much more relaxed and free to do things that I was afraid to do before. As for the sex life...I think the docs will tell you that this is a side effect that differs for everyone. I wondered about this myself and worried that it was going to affect me negatively. But it hasn't. It has actually improved. For me,I think because my anxiety is under control. If it is that great of a concern though,also seek professional help such as a psychiatrist. Seriously,they can help with mind over matter issues such as this. \nGood luck and I hope your wife is feeling better soon. Don't expect anything overnight. It gradually will improve in the upcoming 3-6 weeks.
