Great to hear this.
> But it had side effects like feeling emotionally numb and lack of sexual desire Lot's of friends who are in Sertraline has this adverse effect.
> Though I haven’t ever even kissed a girl at 31 I don't know how successful you are at dating but even so I'll recommend you "The Book of Pook" and "Anti Dump's Machine". Are two funny books you can find online for free. Don't buy them because they are recollection of blog posts from sosuave. They helped me mature in that aspect and give some good advice.
> I will keep an eye for it and talk to my therapist to see if he can refer me to a clinic who can help me in a controlled environment.
Sounds great. Also be cautious, you shouldn't take MDMA while on a SSRI like Escitalopram.
> Thanks for your help.
You are welcome, no problem, it's glad to hear I helped in some way. :)
Thanks for the suggestions. I’ll check it out.
Generally theme is that women tend to have a good time with me. Some have wanted to take the natural next steps. But I tend not to if I don’t feel the same which is always the case and I end it as soon as it starts getting real because I am either afraid or there is some guilt associated with it. I’m not sure I will talk to my therapist about this. Interesting thing to explore in my next session. Thanks for enlightening.
Also didn’t know about mdma and ssri combination.
I have a good combination of CBT expert and a therapist who prescribes me medicine who share notes so it’s been working for me so far. I tend not to experiment things on my own without their referrals or suggestions. I’ve had bad experience with therapists before so I am very cautious about it.
