Sick man taking medicine in bedroom at home

I suffer from a mild depression and anxiety. My doctor put me on Wellbutrin, since Zoloft took my sexual drive completely. But Wellbutrin made my irate, extremely angry and made me cry. Is three something else that controls depression and anxiety and does not take away my sexual drive?

    Sorry that Wellbutrin has not agreed with you. In most cases, it’s the go-to drug for treating depression with minimal sexual side effects.

    You have several options. You could ask your doctor to try you on another antidepressant and see what happens. You could ask for a referral to a psychiatrist and see what that person says.

    Or you could try alternative medicine. For example, the herbal medication, St. John’s wort often works well with mild depression and anxiety. Other herbs—chamomile, passion flower—also help. Exercise also helps. And acupuncture might be worth a try. You might try a naturopath, acupuncturist, or holistic physician.

    I wish you great sex.
