Reply #10: I used to take Prozac for a couple of years

when my mother was dying of lung cancer. It helped with my depression, but just killed my sex life. I came off it without any problems, but nowadays sometimes have periods where I take Celexa.

Anti-depressants - for me - all seem to make sex less enjoyable, which in turn causes even more depression. Is this just me, or do other people experience the same thing? The problem here in the UK is that doctors are overworked and far less inclined to spend time tweaking meds until they get things just right for a patient, which I find incredibly frustrating. If anybody knows of an anti-depressant that doesn't mess about with the libido, I'd be very grateful if you'd tell me what it is!

I take Zyrtec for hay fever, which I suffer badly from, although not nearly as badly in the UK as I did back in Georgia. The season starts later here and doesn't last as long, so I'm sneezy and puffy-eyed for only a matter of weeks instead of months at a time.
