(cross posting this to depression because I wasn't sure which one to put it in, hope that's okay)
Hey everyone
I'm a 24 year old guy, and throughout most of my life I've cycled on and off of anti-depressants. I'm currently on 10mg of Lexapro daily. When I'm off them I become generally misraeble and difficult to be around, so I definitely prefer to be on them. But while I'm on anti-depressants, no matter what kind of medication, my sex life takes a toll.
While I'm on anti-depressants, sometimes sex can feel almost boring when I'm in the moment. My mind will drift a lot, and I'll often automatically picture the person I'm having sex with as being someone else, but it won't help, and I feel like it often becomes a tiresome chore of wading through a cloudy mind and trying to finding pleasure. The last few times I've had sex, I've felt like I'm just hoping to find an orgasm eventually.
Sometimes I will cum after finding something that's at least somewhat satisfying, sometimes I can get so bored that I'll fake an orgasm so that I can just stop. Either way, I'll usually feel tense and uncomfortable afterwards.
So, like I said, I'd prefer to continue taking my medication. But I want to make sex enjoyable again. If there is any advice, tricks, supplements, personal experiences or ANYTHING I would really appreciate it.
I just really want to receive help in this aspect of my life.
Thanks,
Jake
