Yeah, the inability to have orgasms on SSRIs is a frustrating part. Fortunately for me, it balanced itself out after three weeks or so. Scruffy (my fiancé) on the other hand does not respond well to SSRIs either, he gets all the 5-HT2 side effects, and I am convinced that mirtazapine would be the way to go. On it he would have to take one drug instead of three. His psychiatrist recently prescribed him quetiapine for the insomnia, but if it turns him into a zombie, I feel like I have to interfere. I'm not a big fan of physicians prescribing more medication to null the effects of another..
And yes, I concur with Ivy, really nice avatar you've got there!
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura
