From Marlo Thomas on HuffPo: “For those taking medication or anti-depressants, orgasm can seem even more unattainable. Reduction in both sexual desire and orgasms is a very common side effect with certain SSRI’s, as the increase in serotonin tells the body that it’s ‘fully satisfied.'”

The advice in this video is idiotic – how about getting off these poisons altogether? The sexual dysfunction on SSRIs is progressive and potentially irreversible – it’s neurological mutilation.

“the increase in serotonin tells the body that it’s ‘fully satisfied.'”
This reasoning relies on the problematic assumption that antidepressants actually increase serotonin levels in the brain.

Exactly. If that was the case these will be orgasm pills. They clearly are not, they are not happy pills either. Even people who are skeptical to pills often end up propagating the “chemical imbalance” bs.

Someone should do a study to see if anti depressants are causing the divorce rate to go up. Make up sex is important.
How can a pill that ruins sex not ruin marriages too ?
