Default SSRI and lower sex drive
I notice that being on SSRI like Paroxetine CR does lower your sex drive dramatically. Before I could orgasm like twice a day but now like 3x a week.

Any suggestions to boost this?

Should I try Yohimbine?

Hi,
As far as I know, there is nothing you can do except get off the drug. Your psychiatrist might know that some SSRIs are not as bad as others.

Some people can take Wellbutrin as an anti-depressant -- it does not interfere with libido.
