I'm on concerta for ADHD and it works pretty good for me. It's no miracle cure but I feel a lot better compared to the time before I took them. I'm more focused, less tired, less depressed etc.

But there's one thing that bugs me. It has reduced my sex drive a lot. It's not that I had a ton of sex before, mental health, the logistics of being a family with children and medical issues got (and still gets) in the way. But at least I was horny.

Now? There's almost no horny left, and I miss it. And even when I do get horny it is a lot harder to get physically excited, sometimes impossible.

It sucks. I like the meds for making my life bearable and I hate the idea of having to ask for new meds, finding the right dose etc. Dexamphetamine and lisdexamphetamine are also several times more expensive.

Is this a problem other people have? How do you deal with it?

I don't want :volcel-judge: to win this one.
