The sex issue is disturbing. I found that the drug (now I don't even remember which one) didn't eliminate sex drive... it just made it nearly impossible to, ahem, complete the journey to satisfaction!

And given the long ramp-up/taper-down time with these things, it's not as if you can just lay off them on date night.

Yeah it would fit a little too well in a dystopian novel. I wouldn't be surprised if some of the benefit people see from SSRIs is no longer being distracted by sexual frustration, well outside of sex.

It's frankly irresponsible that the side effects are not mentioned upfront, psychiatrists and psychologists get away with too much individual judgement about what the patient should (or should not) know.
