Paxil is messing with my sex drive!!!

Paxil is messing with my sex drive!!!

What is going on with me. I have been on Paxil for almost a year now and I have noticed that I am no longer interested in sex!!! Is this a side effect??? I am only 18 years old!!! This isn't normal is it?

I would say not normal, but not uncommon.

Some young women can suffer a loss of sex drive from taking SSRI medications such as Paxil. Have you tried to lower your dosage? Sometimes people can slowly lower their dosages and still get the benift of the drug without the sexual side effects.

At only 18 you should not be suffering from loss of sexual desire. If there is a cause of this it most likly is the Paxil.
