I have Epilepsy which is controlled by a series of Anticonvulsants also
used as Mood Stabilizers for people with Depression (Tegretol,
Lamictal, Phenobarbitol). They work at calming down your inner system
to keep seizures or mood swings stable, but they also wreck my sex
life. My girlfriend and i are all set to have sex when suddenly my
middle leg turns into Mr. Softee. I try putting a condom on, and it
looks like I'm pushing my penis inside my body as it just collapses. I
tried Viagra, but it's no match to all the drugs I'm on, and I can't
stop them or I'll have seizures. I'm wondering about the implant now.
Haven't asked my doctor yet, as it's too embarrassing for a grown man
to talk about. Has anyone here ever had it done?
----------
In general, psych drugs can ruin sexuality but have much to offer. It
helps to have a case manager or psychotherapist to guide you in
discussing these relationship-crippling side effects when you consult
with the prescribing doctor, if possible, to be right there with you at
that time. I struggle with this issue every damn day.
