Depression Medications without Sexual Side Effects
Is there such a thing as depression medication without sexual side effects?
Last Fall my husband became quite depressed. There were several reasons that coincided with one another that caused this. One was that his physical therapy with the hospital had ended, and he was feeling the loss of those relationships. Second, the weather was turning cooler and the days were becoming shorter. Third, he wasn’t able to sit outside and soak in the sun, and Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) set in.
I wanted to nip the depression in the bud, so I very ignorantly asked the doctor to prescribe an antidepressant. I really had no clue of the many side effects that go along with them. He prescribed fluoxetine (Prozac).
After one week, Steve was like a zombie. He lost all motivation and the desire to do anything. He slept all the time. His mood didn’t get any better, and if anything, he became more depressed. Most importantly, his sexual desire was completely gone.
Some stroke survivors lose their sexual desire right after a stroke. But with Steve, just the opposite was true. The stroke affected the frontal lobe of his brain which controls sexual desire, and his desire increased along with his ability to perform. Even though physically he couldn’t move like he could before, all of his “equipment” was working quite well and quite frequently. But after he started the antidepressant, he experienced sexual side effects, because antidepressants are known to decrease libido levels.
The medication was stopped after only 3 1/2 weeks when it triggered a massive seizure which left him hospitalized for three days. The seizure affected the frontal cortex of his brain which is his motivational center. The risk of another seizure was too great with him taking conventional anti-depressants; and I wanted my husband back sexually, so we needed to find a safe way to treat his depression, and increase sexual desire.
Conventional antidepressants may work well for some, but it didn’t work for Steve. Homeopathic remedies, herbs, meditation and exercise can reduce symptoms of depression to a great extent. Steve can’t exercise much because of his physical limitations, so I began a search for a natural way to treat depression without the side effects. What I found was a safe, natural, herbal remedy that is completely void of all side effects and quite effective.
