[quote=Anonymous]Great question. One I haven't seen on here before!

Yes, for me they have.

I am less inclined to fall into a deep depression if some guy rejects me or isn't into me like I am if I am non-medicated. I do not take things too personally + I can think in a more rational manner.

For example if me and a guy do not click on the first date, instead of me saying, "Oh my God....I am the most ugliest, stupidest, fattest loser...Why WOULD he like a girl like me....??!" I tend to think more realistically now as in, "Well things didn't work out, we just didn't have the right chemistry, he wasn't a bad person, and I am not a bad person, just a bad match. I'm going to keep trying until I find a good match."

Also, my anxiety level is much lower + I do not stress too much during our conversations which is wonderful because before I would be horribly nervous and shy during first date conversations.

Regarding sex, I have heard that these medications affect libido negatively, but from a personal viewpoint, I am on Zoloft and Seroquel and I have had no negative effects thus far and I have been on these meds for five yrs.[/quote]
