Okay, I'm confused. I thought Wellbutrin was supposed to not cause sexual side effects and that people even take it to offset SSRI sexual side effects.
I've been on Wellbutrin XL 150mg for 8 days now, by itself, no other meds. Before I started it, my girlfriend could touch me and I would have an erection. Last night I couldn't get an erection after being on it for 8 days!!! This is worse for me because the desire is there, but I can't get an erection. At least with SSRI's, there was simply no drive, so if I couldn't get an erection, I really didn't care.
Looking back to my recreational days, this situation almost reminds me of using cocaine and wanting to have sex, but having complete shrinkage.
Any input about sexual problems with Wellbutrin XL would be appreciated.
