What people say about Sertraline and libido
“Zoloft changed everything. It gave me what felt like superpowers: hard erections and the ability to last up to an hour.”
“I *felt* best on Zoloft...but had absolutely zero libido. Guys also report similar difficulties cumming.”
“It's a side effect of Zoloft. It was prescribed to me for a while after my wife died... They actually prescribe Zoloft for people with premature ejaculation issues.”
“I was feeling very happy on it, like the opposite of depression, it was great. Buuuuuuut it was death for my sex life.”
