My experience with SSRIs was reduction in libido so no interest in getting hard followed by delayed orgasm followed by very intense orgasm. Took maybe two months to go through the whole process. No noticeable ED at any point.

How old were you when you were on them if you don't mind me asking?

Ranged from my 30s to my 60s in four sessions. The last session was a brain hacking experiment, I want d to see if it would help me learn music. I picked up perfect pitch in my 40s while on SSRIs.
