Evening everyone Smile
Ive been on Citalopram for anxiety for about 2 months now. Im feeling alot more settled however my sex drive has dwindled away to nearly nothing and Ive not managed to have an orgasam Sad Me and my partner had a brilliant sex life and having it turn into this is quite upsetting.
Has anyone else suffered from this?
Im hoping not to be on Citalopram for a long period but Id rather stop them just now if it will help my sex drive return.

This happened to me! It all went back to normal a short while after I stopped taking it. Found it really helped in all other ways so it was worth it for me.

My ex was on it , he didn't have a problem getting hard but just couldn't climax, sounds like it affects men and women in similar ways

I've been on it for 2 years and have no libido at all. However, it has been a great help with my anxiety so I'm not willing to stop taking it. It has caused problems with dd though.
