Anyone on anxiety meds?

anyone on anxiety meds?

doc put me on xanax and lexapro.

any side effects?

i'm mainly concerned with my cognitive abilities declining on these. do either meds effect memory or problem solving skills, or inhibit focus

Took Lexapro and my dick completely stopped working. Fucking freaked, went to the doc, and its one of the side effects. Took a few months but by damn God the sumbitch came roaring back. It was then I decided to get the fuck over my depression because the alt was a non functioning dick.

how many weeks in and what dose

Can confirm that lexapro gives limp dick. Was on it for almost 3 years and could only get hard by using Viagra. It's working again though. Also, enjoy the "brain zaps" after you stop taking it. Think of a cluster migraine headache but add in the feeling of a minor seizure. It only lasts a day or two, but it was easier to quit heroin cold turkey.

I was on it for about a month/month and a half when the ED kicked in. No matter what I did, what my wife did it wouldn't budge. Doc gave me a script for Cialis and it got about half erect.

Finally just starting weening off, and took a couple of weeks after that to get the ding dong back up and running.

I don't remember the dosage. Wasn't the strongest.

Personally it started about 2 weeks in and I was on 20mg a day.

I take Prozac and so far the only bad side effect is that it's a LOT harder to cum. I can't cum more than once every two days and even then it takes like 20 minutes

what the fuck with side effects like these why do doctors push ssri over long term rather than benzos cause they are 'addicting'

Know that feeling bro......know that feeling all to well. Mine was like my brain was trying to restart and everything became surreal. Like all of a sudden, I'd just feel like I wasn't there a second earlier and now suddenly I was. But my brain just kept going blank.

Be careful with lexapro.
I was on it when I first went to the doctor about my mental health. He gave me like 50 of them from a starter pack that I now realized was left by a sales rep.
Turns out 20-30 somethings should be on it. Apparently its mainly for 60-80yr old men who are depressed about being old.
Also it made me got fucking mental.
Also this, could get hard but could never cum no matter how much I tried.

I've been taking anxiety meds since I was 7. The only side effect of Xanax is that it doesn't work

I'm on a lot of meds, the general antianxiety meds I haven't really noticed a difference with even at increased dosages, the Xanax stops the feeling of me wanting to burst out of my skin and calms me down. I have bizarre panic attacks where I'll just get into a weird mood and throw stuff and pace around and I could be home alone with nothing happening. It could be my BPD though.

My shit just stopped working period. I got put on it in June of 2008 and went to my wife's sister house for a party. Caught a glimpse of my SIL's snatch and bush but alas, nothing. Even sniffed a pair of her panties but no dice.

OP here


is this bait? this makes me feel hopeless

Basically because they can't be abused. It's easy to catch a buzz off Xanax/valium or the like. Lexapro won't do shit in terms of recreation. But, besides that, it does simply work. If I thought it wasn't worth having ED wile taking them, I wouldn't have taken them. The side effects suck, but I'm confident that shit saved my life.

side effect not givin a fukk

Been on lexapro for couple of years, xanax as needed too.

Marijuana is about the only thing to increase sex drive.

Xanax is great for anxiety/panic attacks.

It effects everyone differently, but ED is a pretty common side effect. With a small number of people it can make depression/anxiety even worse..

Yeah, Xanax is addictive. Try not to take it unless you just want to have fun every so often.

should i continue the lexapro?

i resorted to meds because of trouble sleeping and had anxiety that was fucking me up in meetings/ weird panic attacks during presentations and meetings and convos.

also got triggered while driving to work - PTSD like symptoms.

got in an accident recently so i went to the doc and he scribed me this shit

Xanax causes serious memory loss if taken in high doses. I've lost whole days.

Talk to your doctor about it rather than a bunch of anonymous faggots. He prescribed it for a reason. If you think the side effects are worse than the potential benefits tell him so.

I'm no doctor, so not really sure.

I'd rather not take them, but supposedly they help curb depression.

I think its goal is to make you not feel very much positive or negative.

smoke instead and save your dick
xans arent bad they kick in fast and helps with panic attacks

i would bro-

i had to quit smoking because of my job. it fucks with my memory too much.

Same issue with the dick on depression meds... I could get hard as fuck and excited and shit... but really fucking hard to cum! Still on those fucking pills and cannot wait to get better!

yeah it fucked with me like that for a bit
sometimes anxiety is just a bitch to deal with i have issues with it. weed helped but job shit made me quit too. kinda miss that shit

I aint yo doktor, nigger, but that's a terrible combination.

Topamax, 25-50mg.

I'm on some. Didn't have any side-effects. How about you?
