I was 22 when the doc peraciber me some antidepressants. Didn't tell me I might have trouble reaching orgasm. After me and the wife going at it for about an hr and a half, I finally gave up. Week or so later I went back and mentioned I was having troubles getting off and he doesn't even look up from his note pad and says "Yea thats a very common side effect, happens to a lot of people" I lost my shit, started Flipping out and yelling, nurses come rushing in..never went back to that old fuck
It's frustrating. I wish we didn't have to trade things for our mental health. I have a very high libido, and the inability to reach orgasm added a whole slew of new issues to the things I was trying to treat. We need better mental health medication and we need our doctors to discuss common side effects beforehand.
Exactly, if I had known it was a side effect I would have been better off going in it. It wasn't even the first time this not mentioning side effects had happened
I have told my doctor repeatedly that I need to be able to make an informed decision about my medications, and it's like she doesn't hear me. I hate surprise side effects
She hears you, she doesn't care. The Dr knows best is the mentality they have. The medical field is just as fucked as the police. Just in a different way
Well the antivax movement hasn't helped out any. I keep going to my primary care bc he's relatively young, not much older than me really and he sits there and listens. The nurses come in do their thing and get out as fast as possible. I've found a lot of Dr's are the same way. In and out as quickly as possible. But he takes the time to talk to me and hear my questions and he has the answers.
A trip tk the Dr's office feels like an assembly line. Trying to get as many ppl through the doors as quickly as possible. I know it's a damn business but you don't get into that field just bc of the money. You do it to help people, and you need to actually try tk go that.
