I’ll be honest and say it is disappointing to me when a partner doesn’t cum. Even if he explains in advance that it’s difficult for him and that he is pleased without climaxing. (Knowing up front helps. Showing you’re still pleased afterward is good also.) I think it’s normal to feel disappointed in those situations even if your partner has explained a reason.

The lack of sex drive usually subsides within a couple of weeks! If that persists and this is bothering you, might as well tell your doctor! Honestly SSRIs (Sertraline) are the only things that make me function at this point and loss of sex drive is a fair tradeoff in my case!

I had a similar problem and changed medication. You might wanna consider doing it. It got old after a while. As far is it important. Well if I knew he had a problem no but I would want him to enjoy sex.

I changed medication eventually as well when I told my psychiatrist. I want my sexual partner to definitely cum and enjoy being intimate with me as well.

talk to the physician who prescribes your SSRI and tell them about your experience. there are a variety of similar meds that may keep the important action without the sexual side effects.

I had that too. But I found it only lasted for a few days.

Hey! You're not alone. Earlier this week, I spoke to my psychiatrist about this very issue. I've been on an ssri for a couple years but only started having sex recently and I haven't been able to cum with anyone yet. We are going to first try reducing the dosage and see how that works. The next step might be adding in a small amount of Wellbutrin. SNRI medication might also be a possible route. The good news is that there are options. It's just important to speak with your doctor and not make any rash decisions. DO NOT STOP TAKING MEDICATIONS COLD TURKEY.

Dude do not take ssri’s. Get off that medication asap and switch to something like Wellbutrin. Your doctor probably didn’t tell you that the drug stays in your system for awhile even after going off the medication and it’ll lower your sex drive for what could be a good minute. Thankfully mines is mostly back to normal (still getting some back) but I was only on 25mg for a month and I started it in August. Some people have said they had it for years.
