I have looked into studies as to dysfunction associated with SSRI/SNRI class medication, in contrast with one another.
Just to clarify - when I say dysfunction, I mean - anorgasmia, erectile dysfunction, decreased libido.
It appears, in contrast to what I had previously assumed, Sertraline gives rise to perhaps the highest rates of dysfunction, with Escitalopram the lowest (within the SSRI/NRI class).
Venlafaxine, slightly lower than sertraline - but still highly prevalent.
My personal experience is, escitalopram is extremely mild in this sense.
Venlafaxine is crippling.
I have never been on sertraline.
I'm just looking for further insights or opinions on this?
Is that above outlay in regards to sertraline about right? It would be just as bad, if not worse than Venlafaxine?
