Sorry that's not funny.

Is it an erection thing as I am sure there is a forum on erectile dysfunction, try those guys - they'll probably have loads of advice!

i have been on anti depressants for 8 years and libido and....more importantly finishing....have never been the same. getting going is no problem, finishing is. which is really weird because this goes against the way more common isse that people suffer from..either not being able to get going, or finishing too fast...
you have to have converstation with partner about this because it can cause lots of guilt and rejection issues, but it will get better

i feel stupid. this post is from a female, and i made the assumption that this post was from a male.

so, i can offer an advice on reaching a big O when i comes to women.

i dont know if it is related, because our plumbing is so different.

    I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...
