Today, I realized that due to my anti-depressants, I can no longer orgasm. At. All. Which depresses me more. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I looked up the side effects of the antidepressants I've recently started taking. Inability to orgasm is one of them. I can either not be depressed, or I can have an orgasm. FML
Today, I realized that I'm so depressed that I can't even watch porn without getting upset about how I can't get laid. FML
Today, I finally lost my virginity. I also found out the side effects of my antidepressants: It's hard for me to get it up, and I can't orgasm. When I finally got it up, I went so long, it ended with her saying, "Yeah, you should stop now, I'm numb." FML
Today, I found out my anti-depressants are super-effective. So effective, they affect things they aren't even supposed to. Like my ability to pee. FML
Today, after 4 months of severe depression, I finally found an antidepressant that works. The downside? I no longer have any interest or gain pleasure in any of my hobbies. FML
Today, I’ve been horny for weeks on end. Because I’m on antidepressants, I can’t orgasm, so the horniness won’t go away. The only thing I do is go to the gym, where literally EVERYONE seems fuckable. While I’m not depressed anymore, my vagina is. FML
Today, I found out that the pills my doctor prescribed for my ED cause severe side effects and I have to stop taking them. So much for my sex life. FML
Today, and for months now, the meds that stop me from killing myself have killed my sex drive. My boyfriend, being stressed at work, initially assured me that his was also non existent and not to worry. I found out he's been wanking every day and hiding it from me so I don't feel bad. Now I know, I feel fucking awful. FML
Today, I realized how bad my depression has gotten when I caught myself fantasizing about suicide while having sex with my husband. FML
Today, my credit card got declined while I was buying anti-depressants. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

newsflash: if your "depression" can be completely fixed by excersise, sex or a positive outlook then you are not depressed. You think people would take medicine that nasty if the answer was that simple?

I totally agree! Real depression is not that easy to handle

depressed as in the mood: yes that will help it. depressed as in diagnosed clinic depression: no, exercise won't cure it, but it could possibly make you feel better for a short amount of time when the endorphins get going.

If your clinically depressed: NNNOOOOO!!!! BTW, I just love how you typed "depression", bet your one of those people who think that depressed and suicidal people are attention *****'s...
monnanon 14
no the depression in qoutes was for those who claim to have clinical depression that was cured in the ways mentioned above. People who are truly depressed are far from attention ****** they are more likely to be introverted to be honest.

Sorry, late reply. Again sorry, it was after I read a suicide fml, so many hateful comments... I assumed like a jackass...

Actually, you'd be surprised. Lots of people seem to want to avoid being healthy like it's the plague or something. People may complain about taking meds, but it seems like people would rather take meds than do the other crucial actions required. Of course, if you are clinically depressed, then you probably should take meds; just be aware that only taking meds is not the solution; it takes more than just a pill.

Yes i am aware of that but no amount of excersise or good food will change the chemical imbalances in the brain nor is there any guarantee that being healthy will help in any way at all. it isn't just fat people that get depression you know.

If u r clinically depressed, u wouldn't even desire any social interactions let alone sex. I'm assuming in ur case u are mildly depressed which u can probably help by just exercising and with general counseling. Id stop taking the meds.

I would never take meds for depression >,>

Then you have never been clinically depressed. People dont seem to get that depression isn't that funk where you cant get out of bed one morning but after a morning run and a chocolate bar you feel better. Depression doesnt always show itself as sadness either it can be agitation, anger, anything. When it comes to clinical depression there is no choice whether or not to take the meds cuase you need them that badly.

I had the same problem, OP. Personally, I think it's no big deal, there are things much worse and frustrating in life. Firstly, your problem is solvable. As soon as you get off the meds, everything will get back to normal. Secondly, while you're getting treatment, well, what can I say, find another sources of joy, life is not all about sex.

#56, then you've never been diagnosed with clinical depression. Consider yourself lucky.
