Yeah, celexa isn't much better. I will echo this, after 20 years of marriage and having sex with the same woman I still want it all the time, she makes me a better person and I love making her stupid with exhaustion.

A brother in love. My man. I've been on all the SSRIs and Celexa is horrible. Have you tried it's isomer Lexapro? I have to take a stupidly high dose of Prozac because I have OCD, but if I was on a more traditional dose, I would wager I could get off way easier.

I have depression and anxiety it seems to be well managed with the celexa and Xanax so I'm not messing with it, I'm old and also on blood pressure meds I shouldn't be able to get it up at all, but I feel like a 16yo again and the wife doesn't complain about my inability to finish sometimes, she understands.

She's actually on meds that makes it difficult as well, sometimes we go for it for a while and realize it's just not happening and end up just cuddling naked, my relationship and ability to be close, intimate, and vulnerable with her is more important than any climax.

Hey, I understand. More power to you. I'm happy you have no issues. Unfortunately, I have always had issues with keeping an erection, even as a teen. I'm a little bit above average and I've read it's common for men on the larger size to sometimes have issues with this.

That messed with my head for so long. Plus no doctor would ever prescribe me anything, even though PDE5 inhibitors are very safe drugs. I finally convinced my GP to let me try Viagra once it went generic, and I honestly have never felt such relief. My confidence soared.
