Hello,
I started worrying lately. Am already bored to repeat my diagnose. It's paranoid schizophrenia, but depression did hit me more (although I am not feeling sad). I am taking Zeldox (ziprasidone (Geodon)) 40mg 2x per day. Also, Fevarin (fluvoxamine) 100 mg once daily and Prazine (promazine) 100/200 mg as necessary to make me sleep. I also took Dalmane (flurazepam) sometimes, but my insomnia is another story.

I feel quite good despite horrible social/family situation I am into now. That was also my psychiatrists remark, that I function quite good despite horrible situation.

What worries me is next thing. Loss of libido. Rapid one. Just two and a half months ago I could masturbate five-six times per day. I had no any trouble with erection and orgasms were pretty easy and quick to achieve. I could get aroused quite easily... But than... Just the switch flipped off

From the end of May I am experiencing strong loss of libido. It's manifesting as loss of sexual interest, weaker erections (only get them when watching porn), no morning erections (well, actually no any random erections), difficulty achieving orgasm (takes longer and have to strain for it) and finally, when I orgasm it feels "cheap", "boring", "lame", "usual", just not so satisfying. Now I do not have sudden urges to masturbate and can "survive" 4-5 days without masturbating. I masturbate only when I feel bored and when I want to "test my libido". But I have no urges to do it naturally.

I admit I was hard core porn addict. Watched some 10000 porn videos and basically my appetite is no more that huge. Before I could masturbate only by imagining with my mind, now without strong stimulation - zero.

Also I admit I have been taking Seroxat (Paroxetine/Paxil) for few days sometime before 2.5 months, but just once I took pill of 40mg, other days I was already lowering down by 10mg. So I doubt it could have such dramatic effect. Just one pill! 2.5 months ago! (also, it just made my orgasms very difficult/did not lower my libido)

And I admit I have been through hard times in my life. Family situation, stress, sleeping problems, social issues, money issues were very common in my daily life... but! But I had sam issues before end of May, basically all this year and part of last year, and I could really enjoy my orgasms and had no trouble with arousing.

Now I see girls half naked, only with bra and panties while swimming, my John just stays sleeping Even when I watch suggestive photos, topless girls, or sexy models I stay (well he does) sleepy. Only by watching stronger porn I can get aroused.

So my dear friends... What is happening to me? Is this the way of nature telling me my John is going for retirement (although I am only 27 years old) or is there some kind of ailment I am not aware of? Yeah, I have very stressful life every day, but it doesn't touch me really much since I go on doing my own business and do not care. But I have girlfriend. It's long distance relationship. I have yet to meet her. But what if my sexual desire is gone for good and I can just cry for the rest of my life? My desire... GONE!!!

Cause if I cannot have sex with her, or do not find it enjoyable, I will rather stay alone in life (I am also disabled person, psychical invalid). But it's not fair, since I never had a chance to dip into sex in vivo.

Please advise or someone with similar/same problems?
