>The sexual sides which we know are very prevalent were never brought out in early studies of ssris.

That's what I mean about SSRIs actually having more disruptive side effects. It's not only the sexual numbing that causes problems in relationships (as well as being frustrating and annoying), it's the emotional numbing too. All of these side effects lead to me discontinuing SSRIs, while Parnate not only lacked them, it seemed to enhance my enjoyment of life.

I worry that the idea that MAOIs have more severe side effects would lead some people to think they necessarily wouldn't be able to tolerate MAOIs because they can't tolerate the 'weaker' SSRIs. Not true.
