In fact, chances are with any SSRI you choose, you won't have a problem.
Nevertheless, Zoloft seems to be least implicated among the SSRIs for
causing sexual dysfunction--IMO--but I could be wrong.
Wellbutrin (bupropion), although not an SSRI, is popular for its
profile's lack of sexual dysfunction reports.
Serotonin has often been referred to as the "civilizing"
neurotransmitter, because of its tendency to impart calm in humans and
other animals. Serotonin affects parts of the brain that are
responsible for sex, appetite, emotion, etc. But it is not known
exactly why SSRIS--and all antidepressants to some degree--have sexual
inhibitory effects on some people, but it's not surprising, either.

Before you buy.
Yes.
hyper OR hyposexuality...
Btw, careful of the Prozakian junkies on this group...
Like the annnon. Norweigian homosexual who pushes SSRIs on *pregnant*
"breeders" (as he calls women)
Best bet is NOT to ask the Prozakians...
Do your own reading and thinking...
Check out www.drugawareness.org
The Prozak Martians lie about that site all the time...

Don't bother visiting drugawareness.CON it's a front-group for the
Church of Scientology.

I've offered you this wager before. Haven't I?
You've run away before, haven't you?
Then you lied about that.
So a $1,000.
I say you are a liar (again).
A $1,000 bet where you (again) claim that
www.drugawareness.org is a "front group for the Church of Scientology, and I
say it most certainly is not.
You don't like it because it speaks the truth about the "sacred" SSRI
pyschiatric drugs that you are addicted to, and PUSH to every newbie coming
to alt.support.depression.medication.
You LOVE your Prozac, don't you?
The bet (again), yes or no?
Money to be fed-ex'ed to a neutral party in advance.

How do you know this?
Have you done a survey?
In fact, you just proved yourself wrong by writing what you did, right?
OR... is it that YOU are a SSRI LOYALIST (addicted) !!! :)
