Hi.
I just wandered how long you wait before changing meds? Sexual dysfunction can (sometimes, not always) fade with time. Nardil is a classic example where it can take over 6 months to get to managable 'capabilities'. It just depends on whether you take that chance and can be that patient.
I've had/have the same problem but to me a theraputic response to my meds far outweighs the (hopefully) temporary lack of orgasm.
There are always antidotes you could try. These boards are full of them. For starters there's Viagra, Yohimbine, Cyproheptadine, Amantadine, Bethanechol. And try searching the net using, say "SSRI +anorgasmia +antidote" or similar. Here's a good link from this very site:

Good luck with it all.
