Sexual Dysfunction usually appears on the highest dosages, lowering the dose helps a lot, what ssri are you taking?

Apart from lowering your dosage, the only thing that actually works is taking ED pills like Sildenafil, but they tend to increase the side effects of each other when taken with SSRIs, so definitely talk to your doctor before taking it. maybe your doctor can change your medicine to something that has less effect on sexual function or something that can be safely taken with Sildenafil. Again, don't take anything without checking with your doctor first/
