I searched the forum and have not found a mention of this. While some people use it for anxiety it is mainly an anti-depressant.
The reason I am asking is because it is known to have the least sexual side effects (some report improvement) so maybe useful for CPPS population since many of us have seen our sex life impacted by CPPS. Just wanted some thoughts on whether it indeed has low sexual sides, and whatever experience one has to share.
I never considered going on Anti-depressants. I have been sad for the large part of my life but that was always a response to events/constraints that are all too real. The few years where I had the luck to be in good health and have a quiet life I was fine, and rarely went through a prolonged period of sadness if ever. But these were few quiet years before the storm. Long story short now I feel I am hitting a bottom, I have been taking hits for a while, and while I don't think an antidepressant helps with CPPS it might help me numb the sadness and maybe as a consequence I will be gentler to my body.
