Panda:

Thanks for your response.

I tried them for 4-6 months each, one of them along with lithium (I think). But that's going back to a sucky time in my life, so I tend to have a conveniently imprecise memory of that time.

I know Wellbutrin has helped some people with sexual side effects, but from what I've read it has more to do with low sex drive than anorgasmia. Sex drive isn't really the problem for me, which makes it all the more frustrating.

> > I despair of finding a med that does not cause me very significant sleepiness along with anorgasmia. I am presently on Effexor 75mg for BPII and OCD. I started the Effexor last week after a year of going without meds because these side effects were so prominent. I have found these same side effects in the past with Inderal, Paxil, Lithium, Prozac, Luvox, Imipramine, Wellbutrin, Serzone, Clomipramine, and Zoloft.
