Im about to turn 18 and my girlfriend and i have been dating for around 7 months. I have been sick and in the hospital and am currently on celexa for anxiety. But one of the side effects of it is having trouble climaxing and no sex drive. Its got to the point where i dont even feel the want to talk to my girlfriend. This is huge because for 7 months i have talked to her EVERY SINGLE DAY. idk what to do?
stop taking the robot medication.. Dude, having anxiety, takes pill cant cum.. How is this helpful in relieving anxiety?
Do NOT suddenly stop taking your medication. If you want to quit, you need to talk to your doctor (over the phone is fine) about titrating your dose down, so that you won't suffer from withdrawals. Many anti-depressant/anti-anxiety medications have horrible withdrawal symptoms when the person quits cold turkey. Celexa can definitely affect a person's libido. Are you in any kind of therapy to address your anxiety? If not, I would suggest it. Throwing a pill at you won't "fix" anything. Do you know what is causing your anxiety? The triggers? A good therapist can teach you how to deal with your anxiety so you won't feel like you need pills to get through your day. If therapy isn't your thing you might try online anxiety forums, or local support groups. They main objective is to figure out what is "causing" your anxiety, and finding a way to resolve it.
Sex mellows me out. Learn to meditate and have lots and lots of sex. Thomas P.S. Unless! It is your girlfriend making you anxious.
