SSRIs are well-known to impair sexual functioning. The conventional view
has been that once the drug is stopped, functioning comes back to normal.
There are indicators however that this may not be true for everyone. If sexual
functioning remains abnormal, this should be brought to the attention of your
physician, who will hopefully report it.
Withdrawal may reveal other continuing problems, similar to the ongoing
sexual dysfunction problem, such as memory or other problems. It is
important to report these. The best way to find a remedy is to bring the
problem to the attention of as many people as possible.
