For Depression "Great improvement over other SSRIs. Visual problems are very limited. Penile anesthesia is absent, and muscle rigidity found with other SSRIs is gone (I work out a lot and feel tense all the time). More in terms with reality. Much less drowsiness, fatigue is present, very diminished libido to a point I have to remind myself to get some every now and then. More sex-friendly than Zoloft, although Zoloft in small dosage gives better penile vasodilatation and therefore better sex. Overall, I wish this medicine was available 6 months earlier, I would still be married today."

"On this one for 6 weeks to replace Cymbalta (which killed my orgasm). As far as therapeutic effects, it works great. Almost no side effects except for not quite good sleep compared with Cymbalta. Hopefully still in the adjustment period. The big question is when the anorgasmia will go away?"

Vilazodone for Depression "I'd been taking Pristiq, but it killed my libido. Since taking Viibryd, my depression is gone and my libido has returned to its normal self."

Vilazodone "I used this for general anxiety disorder. It is the best medicine I’ve used. Easy for the body to get used to, no sexual side effects. Marked difference in ruminating thoughts."

For Depression "It works great for my depression, but my libido completely disappeared. That makes me feel bad. I guess I'll try bupropion."
