I've had a hell of a year which I've gone into detail on other posts. I've always been the type of guy that hates going to doctors and taking medication but recently decided to hell with all that, if there is something that can help it's worth at least experimenting with. I started taking an SSRI (anti-depressant) about a month ago.

A potential side effect is reduced libido. For a lot of people this is a big downside but I have to tell you... for me it's awesome. I work out and have natural success with women, which for a long time was great, but recently has led to my life almost being destroyed. I've been trying to avoid women over the last year but constantly struggle with how horny I get. This medication is amazing. I can't even masturbate to completion, it just feels... uninteresting. If you had asked me beforehand how I'd feel about that I would have had some trepidation, but now that I'm experiencing it it's extremely liberating. I feel like it's much easier to focus on things that matter to me, and not things that my hormones and lizard brain are compulsively driving me to pursue.

Just thought I'd share in case anybody here is on the fence about this kind of thing.
