No happiness either. When i started taking antidepressants i felt nothing. No joy nor sadness. Empty and dizzy 24/7. Also sex thing. It ain't there and not coming back as long as you take 'em.

That's a common side effetc.
You should talk to your doctor and find medicine that strikes a balance, for a month it is ok but after a year the 'no horn'y isn't funny anymore

Heya - it's a pretty common side-effect, unfortunately. In most cases, you will bounce back after you stop taking the medication, sometimes even before. Has your mood stabilised by now? Loss of sexual desire can be a side effect of depression, too, as can erectile dysfunction and vaginal dryness.

Antidepressants do not lower your libido, they can make it more difficult to orgasm. The loss of libido has to do with the fact that the depression is still there. Talk to your doctor about upping the dose or changing meds that have a better impact on your depression.

Sad=horny?
Get well first, get horny later
So a win-win?
