Re: Post-SSRI permanent sexual dysfunction? Real?

I am on 20mg. generic Paxil and 300mg. of brand name Wellbutrin XL, and have had all the described sexual dysfunction from my first dose of Paxil. No desire, numbness, pretty much impossible to have an orgasm. The Wellbutrin doesn't seem to help at all even though it did increase my libido when I first went on it by itself(although that seemed to fade after a couple of weeks). I have only been on Paxil for 3 weeks, but this is worrying since Paxil has pretty much shut me down sexually. When someone is more prone to the sexual side effects of these SSRI's do you think it would increase the chance of permanent problems? The Wellbutrin gives me too much anxiety(especially at night) without the Paxil. Now I don't know if I should continue with it or not. It is helping a little.

I also take Xanax and Inderal as needed, but I have been taking them for quite awhile, and they have never caused any sexual problems for me.



1mg. of regular release Xanax taken only once daily, occasionally taken with one dose of 20 mg. of regular release Inderal.
