I am back here, and have FULL PSSD
Posted: Mon Oct 16, 2023 12:24 pm
I have been on Zyprexa (for sleeping and bipolar) on and off for the last 6 months. Every time I try to get off I become totally dysfunctional in life. I can't sleep. I have to call out of work, and I go on an agitated Mania. It's bad. However, slowly my existing PSSD has gotten worse on Zyprexa. Interestingly when I re-start the Zyprexa, for the first 5-6 days or so my sexual functioning is great. Then it shuts off.
Symptoms
1. Bad ED
2. Anorgamsia/Delay Ejaculation
3. Low libido
However, the orgasm is still intact and feels really good.
At this point, the anorgasmia is the most disturbing symptom. I would be totally happy with having ED, if I could get off as easy as I used it. Going off ALL medications is simply not an option for me, and I NEED a medication that helps me sleep 8-9 hours at night as I have a form of narcolepsy called Idiopathic Hypersomnia. It involved severe daytime sleepiness caused by fragmented/low-quality sleep.
Would Seroquel possibly be a better option? Any additional thoughts in the med world that doesn't involve going med-free (Not an option, I have tried 6-7 times this year)
