Being Depressed: I do not think, since these drugs do not change the brain or have any permanent side effects, that your problems are not, in reality, related to this medication. Being depressed means that all higher functions of your living, such as libido and sex, will be put on the back burner. I would hope you are seeing the appropriate mental health specialist and getting good treatment for your depression.
