> Perhaps my returning libido and sexual function is more a function of the depression leaving me. Hmm.

Yes, the sexual good news could very likely be due to that, and/or other factors such as the Wellbutrin helping counteract sexual dysfunction... and/or your body finally dveloping tolerance to the sexual inhibition caused by the other drugs (this does happen for some people, although it usually takes at least a few months).

Given the extent of your sexual recovery, I'd wager that the Wellbutrin is probably contributing, mediated by Wellbutrin's dopaminergic or general stimulant mechanisms. For that matter, if you're up to a fairly high dose of Effexor, it could be helping through intensified adrenergic effects (not too sure about that one, but it sounds feasible).

Regardless, its great to hear things are working out for you!
