concerns about pssd from tapering off vortioxetine
From purely risk of sexual function standpoint. I know you cant tell me to taper or not, and I am not asking for your alowance/guidance, just interested in what you think/experienced about PSSD...
my concern is that... what if my sexual function is gona go down as I will taper further? Ive read some cases of people developing pssd only after quitting, so..
I was on 150mg sertraline, sucesfully tapered down to 75mg and there my libido returned. Then I got switched to vortioxetine 10mg and now am tapering, went dopwn to 7.5 mg, got a wave of anxiety, it came back to normal, I dropped to 6.25mg. I think so far my libido goes back, somewhat. Also, I dont think I have genital anesteshia. I used to have it at 150mg sertraline, like total nub´mbness, but not so much after that. My main issue was, adn still is low nocturnal/morning errections, low libido (tough that has always been returning as I had been tapering) and problems w erections. So not so much the real pssd issues so far. As for emotional blunting - that has been always getting better as I was tapering, so so far I havent seen an issue there.
My main concern is - do I stay like this and call it a day, or do I finish my taper? Because I am concerned if I wont develop PSSD once I taper off, as Ive heard stories of people who were even completely fine on the medication and then developped pssd only after tapering off completly
