I´ve been on nearly two weeks from stopping taking prozac and My boyfriend told me to start it again to stop mi cumming. This time is just getting stronger and my boyfriend wants a dose high enough to stop erections or to make them softer. He told me to take 4 pills a day (80 mg) and i am staring today. I want to know if this will just make me impotent and unable to orgasm and cum. Thanks to all who read this and answer.

Whether you are serious about this whole business or not...these chemicals PRIMARY function is on BRAIN chemistry, not genitals. Any impotence is a SIDE effect. Starting and stopping, and taking too much is going to cause serious mindfucking on you ability to think and feel normally.

Because your boyfriend/girlfriend WANTS you to take medications is NOT a valid reason for doing so.

Dude, 80mg of Prozac is way too much. 20mg is enough to solve many people's depression, and 40mg is used for the tougher cases.

Secondly, medicine and brain chemicals don't work such that more has more effect. There are thresholds in the brain chemistry and once you're past that it doesn't make a difference. For example, Prozac works on seratonin levels in the brain. Once you've inhibited the update a certain amount taking more isn't going to provide further inhibition because the update receptors will already be full.

Also, going on and off an SSRI is going to serious affect your brain. You'll get weird sensations in the brain, like squeezing and little twinges and stuff. Your memory will get muddled, etc.

Anyway, 40mg is the most you should take, especially if you're doing it without prescription or doctor's supervision.

Honestly, you'd probably be better off with a chemical castration drug rather than messing with brain chemicals.

Oh dear...I just saw that too! I was only on 10mg of Prozac for a while and it's effects were pretty pronounced...I can't imagine what 80mg would do to a person...

Those effects are a bitch too...and I agree, a castration drug might have lower risks, when I stopped SSRIs it took about 2 months to return to normal moods (but take note that I only took SSRIs for a few months.)

If you want to get a "SOFT ON" and have little to no cum, but still have precum, see a urologist and get on Tamsulosin and/or Avodart in combination. Rarely have ejaculation and if you do it will be a small aount of watery stuff rather than thick creamy cum.

Avodart, perhaps. It will take a while for the effects to show on that though.

Tamsulosin (Flomax), I seriously advise against. It's an infamous alpha-blocker (while Avodart is just a targeted inhibitor), which will cause all sorts of problems ranging from weakness to vertigo.

Taking high-dosage SSRI or SNRI is probably really really stupid. Your boyfriend seems truly scary. Please talk to a real doctor.

80 mg is prescribed for people with HARD CORE depression and other issues and is NEVER started at that dosage. It is normal to start with 20mg and work up from there a month or more at a time. Too much prozac can KILL you! It can raise your serotonin levels high enough that you can die. It's called serotonin syndrome or serotonin toxicity. Read the full article before you try anything so silly.

Wiki article-

Serotonin syndrome is a potentially life-threatening adverse drug reaction that may occur following therapeutic drug use, inadvertent interactions between drugs, overdose of particular drugs, or the recreational use of certain drugs. Serotonin syndrome is not an idiosyncratic drug reaction; it is a predictable consequence of excess serotonergic activity at central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral serotonin receptors.[1] For this reason, some experts strongly prefer the terms serotonin toxicity or serotonin toxidrome because these more accurately reflect the fact that it is a form of poisoning.[2][3] It may also be called serotonin storm, hyperserotonemia, or serotonergic syndrome.

The excess serotonin activity produces a spectrum of specific symptoms including cognitive, autonomic, and somatic effects. The symptoms may range from barely perceptible to fatal.[1] Numerous drugs and drug combinations have been reported to produce serotonin syndrome. Diagnosis of serotonin syndrome includes observing the symptoms produced and a thorough investigation of the patient's history. The syndrome has a characteristic picture but can be mistaken for other illnesses in some patients, particularly those with neuroleptic malignant syndrome. No laboratory tests can currently confirm the diagnosis.[3]

Treatment consists of discontinuing medications which may contribute and in moderate to severe cases administering a serotonin antagonist. An important adjunct treatment includes controlling agitation with benzodiazepine sedation. The high profile case of Libby Zion, who is generally accepted to have died from serotonin syndrome,[1] resulted in changes to graduate medical education in New York State.[4]

Signs and symptoms

Symptom onset is usually rapid, often occurring within minutes. Serotonin syndrome encompasses a wide range of clinical findings. Mild symptoms may only consist of increased heart rate, shivering, sweating, dilated pupils, myoclonus (intermittent tremor or twitching), as well as overresponsive reflexes.[1] Moderate intoxication includes additional abnormalities such as hyperactive bowel sounds, high blood pressure and hyperthermia; a temperature as high as 40 °C (104 °F) is common in moderate intoxication. The overactive reflexes and clonus in moderate cases may be greater in the lower limbs than in the upper limbs. Mental status changes include hypervigilance and agitation.[1] Severe symptoms include severe increases in heart rate and blood pressure that may lead to shock. Temperature may rise to above 41.1 °C (106.0 °F) in life-threatening cases. Other abnormalities include metabolic acidosis, rhabdomyolysis, seizures, renal failure, and disseminated intravascular coagulation; these effects usually arise as a consequence of hyperthermia.[1][3]

The symptoms are often described as a clinical triad of abnormalities:[1][5]

Cognitive effects: headache, agitation, hypomania, mental confusion, hallucinations, coma

Autonomic effects: shivering, sweating, hyperthermia, hypertension, tachycardia, nausea, diarrhea.

Somatic effects: myoclonus (muscle twitching), hyperreflexia (manifested by clonus), tremor.
