Okay so I have pretty bad anxiety/social anxiety and I’ve tried a bunch of meds now I’m on duloxetine(cymbalta) and the sexual side effects I cantttt like they’re so bad my poor bf. Anyone tried a med that doesn’t have those side effects??

WELLBUTRIN is the absolute GOAT. Improves libido and mood through directly increasing dopamine. Not serotonin like the shitty ones

I am NOT recommending this I havent been able to get a prescription for over a year because of problems with healthcare. I had to switch to weed/thc. It helped with my anxiety. It didn’t make it hard to have sex. Weed affects everyone differently.

OP don't start smoking weed, it can quickly turn into addiction/ dependence if you aren't careful, and you may not be able to recognize if you have a bad relationship with it! there's also the potential struggles with getting hired if a certain company screens against it

weed has also never made my social anxiety better. i'm also on cymbalta (altho i forget to take it constantly) & i dont have any sexual side effects so i feel bad for this person. smoking weed has affected my sex life more. i also lowkey have an issue with it, whenever i have it i will end up smoking it even sometimes when i don't want it. being high isn't even that great & i still cant stop lol
