back in the days ive had also taken accutane at 30mg daily for some months. - this was about in 2003
i had then discontinued because my hepatic results were not good and turned completely apathetic (everyone around me noticed that, i would get home from school and go to sleep asap)
I've taken ssris about ten years ago for about a year for dysthimia and at the time a bit of melancholic depression - this was about 2007
during the course of SSRI, ive encountered great apathy and anhedonia and of course sexual dysfunction
it was characterized by anorgasmia, lack of erection, lack of sensitivity, but not lack of libido
now, 10 years later, ive tried a ton of things to improve my situation
mostly supplements, stimulants, TCAs and MAOIs and other non-SSRI antidepressants.
fundamentally just another post ssri or post accutane case, but there are some variables that i dont see in many others:
delayed ejaculation, very high libido, "non full" erection that comes and goes intermittingly - i think my penis is never really full and even if, blood flows out pretty fast
other maybe particular factors:
-tall, skinny and non muscular. my wrists are almost as thin as a girls - i hardly put up muscles in my arms. chest legs and back are ok.
-i also have strange follicular acne for which i still take 2.5mg daily accutane
-often diarrhea with no known allergies or inflammation, apparently
-took testosterone for a while and still have some left. interestingly even small doses give some musclebuilding results. discontinued because i figured it wasnt the solution and anyway i did not like the idea of taking androgens.
-apathy, fatigue, lack of interest and purpose in life, but no melancholic characteristics
-not really outgoing or proactive in social situation, as i feel no interest in binding with most of the people around. its probably partly due to not enjoying conversations on trivial topic, partly due to some sort of subtle anxiety
-beta thalassemia, which is a form of mediterranean anemia but every doctor says it should need treatment
-out of breath extremely easily even if i train consistently for a while
-difficulty breathing through the nose, feels congested - chronic slime in the throat upon waking up without smoking
ritalin has almost no effect, i do not feel strong effects from any antidepressants besides:
-moclobemide is overall positive, i feel its in the right direction but not totally
-trazodone makes me fall asleep asap and i have great issues waking up the next day, like non funcional for half the day
-reboxetine (NRI) was a hit of sledgehammer upon first dose: so zoned out. my dick shunk to nonexistent and i ejaculated before reaching orgasm.
