Anyone try anything w/ Nardil to help you orgasm? I can orgasm during masturbation just not sex.

Have you tryed roleplay or fetish with your partner? The difference between masturbation and real sex is fantasy and reality. I would try bringing some of my fantasies into my sexlife, with your partner's permission of course.
just my experience... Also an extended period of forplay can actually make your orgasms more powerful. AD and impotence are a main topic with me and my pdoc, if I have to lose my 'uh-huh', there better be a good reason!

cosis, have you tried holidays on Nardil ?
I am on Nardil , a lot of times I have stop taking it for 3 or 4 days because of drugstore problems. Only stopping 3 or 4 days can help me to increase my sexual perfomance.

Give it 2-3 months. Orgasmic function most often returns on its own.

Is it worse than Paxil you think? It was literally impossible for me to achieve an orgasm...since I discontinued it I've had absolutely no problems whatsoever. And it's only been a couple of days...I'm going on Nardil, though, so you guys got me worried now.

For what it's worth, I switched from Parnate (even at 80mg/day) 120mg/day (on which orgasms were way more intense than normal, almost like taking MDMA or something) to Nardil 75mg/day this past week. Sometimes on Parnate I felt absurdly hypersexual, to the point that I feared I might be heading toward mania and like propositioning people on public transportation, etc. However, my thoughts weren't racing or anything, so I don't know about that.

To my surprise, I am noticing only minor impairment of my "orgasmic faculties" (wow, if that's not clinical and euphemistic, I don't know what is, heh) over the Parnate. I have some slight physical numbness there, and sometimes during sex I have to, um, finish it myself, but many other times I don't. I also haven't actually lost any libido, it just takes more foreplay and such to get turned on, which I feel is a good thing given my baseline; that is, I think my hypersexuality (in my default state I only get pleasure from activities that are strongly "biologically reinforcing", such as sex, drugs, etc) is toned down somewhat, and my ability to manage the feelings as well as construct situations in which my desires are satisified has gone way up. Nardil's effects on sex still pale in comparison to the dysfunction SSRIs gave me. Sorry for being too detailed if I was, but that's the topic of the thread. :) I am looking forward to two months from now if it gets better than it is now. Not to mention that relief from dysthymia and social phobia is worth at least 2x the impairment than I'm experiencing now. To be able to ENJOY expressing myself by socializing with strangers is something I could never even conceive of before. I literally did not think it was constitutionally possible for me to. The thoughts I have on Nardil that are like "oh, cool, I think I'll talk to THAT person" are totally alien to me yet very welcome; I've been waiting for relief from that handicap my entire life. If the meds I'm on now poop out I don't know what I'd with myself.

Of course, YMMV, and I'm not sure that I'm a good case to compare to, because I don't react the way many people do to many medications.
