im looking to go to a psychiatrist and get diagnosed with ocd, delusional disorder (psychosis), adhd and avpd in order to get meds for the first three or at least only the first twoi hear some of the ssri's used to treat ocd can nuke your sex drive and even anti-psychotics can do that tooanyone have personal experience with stuff like that? especially if you use ssris to treat depressioni would actually love to kill my sex drive cause im kind of a porn addict and dont wanna jerk off anymore
>>33889476yeah, it pretty much kills it, makes it really hard to start and in the beginning, you'd feel like you want to do it, can't, and then just accept it. experiences differ though but that's just me
>>33889476Depends, but it's common. My experience is that I'm not as aroused, but I can still cum. Which means anything that is distracting results in not being able to perform or fap. Masturbation is reduced by like 50%, but it's not impossible. It's more of an issue during sex, because I don't feel much. Anti-psychotics are supposably even worse, never tried them though.
>>33889488so you dont get horny at all? or just can get erect?>>33889510>Anti-psychotics are supposably even worseyou think they stop horniness all together?
>>33889476Yeah I've been on 3 different ssris and 2 different antipsychotics, they all made my dick numb but I still got horny like normal and it was a very frustration combination. You could ask about alternative medications if you want, for most conditions there is different types to treat them [spoiler]and they all suck in different ways, shit's fucked[/spoiler]you can still get the diagnosis and choose not to take meds unless you're legally obligated to as well
>>33889517>you think they stop horniness all together?I don't know, just that they have more side effects in general. In higher doses especially, maybe not in lower doses. Also they make you fat.
>>33889526you got horny but couldnt cum? or you could cum but not get hard?>and they all suck in different wayswhats been your experience? im not sure what the side effect of most meds are>choose not to takenot really an option, i need the ocd intrusive thoughts to stop>>33889543i dont care about being fat or whatever, im voluntarily celibate and not trying to look attractive or acquire a girlfriend, in fact if i wanted to look attractive id looksmaxx more
>>33889585>you got horny but couldnt cum? or you could cum but not get hard?A little bit of both I guess. I couldn't get fully hard, but if I worked really hard I would still be able to crank one out. And it's like you feel the orgasm, but there is no pleasure from it if that makes sense. You just feel some pressure, then you cum, then the pressure is gone. I guess if you're trying to quit porn it might be a good motivation to stop, but it won't fix the problem on its own.Aside from those I've also tried mirtazapine, which made me tired and heavy feeling all the time, and bupropion which made me sweaty and angry, although it did make things more fun which was nice. Both are other kinds of antidepressants not sure what the class is, but bupropion can also be used to treat certain types of addictions.I would like to add that I was misdiagnosed and being treated for bipolar disorder for a few years only to discover is was spd + depression instead, and ssri's and antipsychotics actually make that condition worse by adding to the feelings of emptiness inside (which is a common side effect especially with antipsychotics). So your experience would likely be different than mine. The most frustrating thing about medications is that they are different for everyone.
>>33889628i see, thank you for the infodumpive heard that antipsychotics make you kinda "numb" in that regard but im not sure what that feels like yet, i guess it might be worth "losing your personality" or whatever for my delusions to go away, i have some pretty bad paranoia and feelings of people reading my mind, and there being entities inside of my head, watching me and shit, i also get delusions of grandeur, at one point i thought i was yahweh
>>33889585>not trying to look attractive That's not what I meant. It's not practical being fat and you tend to be numbed down, tired and unbale to focus.
>>33889647thats okay i dont mind
>>33889657i dont care about being healthy* rather, i already eat only junk food
>>33889476ssris did nothing for meantipsychotics lowered my sensitivity and the pleasure i feel, but my sex drive is mostly intact
>>33889637Yeah that sounds pretty intense, it might be worth it. You can always try and see, and go off the meds if it's not working out.
>>33889676thats the point i guess, ill have to see whats up at the psychiatrist.
luvox aka fluvoxamine (200-300mg/day) and N-acetylcysteine aka NAC (2000mg/day) will nuke your OCD and your sex drive
>>33889717how do you know that? from personal experience?
>>33889726yes, but my personal experience also tells me to never trust a shrink. that cunt reported me to the police for having intrusive thoughts that i can't control. anyway, if you need heavy-duty medication for OCD then you want luvox+NAC. but it can also make you feel lethargic as hell.NEVER TRUST SHRINKS btw. if you think about violence or suicide, don't fucking tell them.
>>33889752>NEVER TRUST SHRINKS btw. if you think about violence or suicide, don't fucking tell them.yes i have passive suicidal ideation and almost killed myself one or two times, but i wasnt gonna tell them in the case they hold me at a hospital or something>if you need heavy-duty medication for OCD then you want luvox+NAC. ill note that
