F (22) I'm finally having strong orgasms after years of weak ones.

I swear to God I was going to ask you if you've recently stoped taking any medications (mainly anti-depressants) or recently changed to a new one. This is absolutely, unequivocally the cause of your weak orgasms. I know from personal experience in more ways than just orgasms. In my youth I was stupid and developed a pretty heavy drug habit with speed (Amphetamines). The good and bad part of it was the fact that I was a functioning drug addict. So from an outside perspective I was just a good, hyperactive kid who did well in school and was very socially engaged. Speed obviously helped all these things immensely as well, giving me even more cover from being found out lol. Anyway, after being on and abusing Adderall for awhile, the comedowns became more and more difficult and depressing. I knew full well that when I felt like shit and was super depressed it was 99% the fact that I'd been up for 3 days straight eating hundreds of milligrams of Amphetamine, but being young and stupid I didn't address the problem at it's source. Instead I figured there's gotta be some other drug I can take to counter the comedown. So I went to the doctor and told him I was depressed, and doing what doctors tend to do now, he did no further digging at all and prescribed me Fluoxetine (Prozac). It really only took a couple weeks to start taking effect, but I noticed immediately. Not because my depression subsided though. I was probably 17 or 18 at this time and I had been dating my girlfriend (now my wife) for 5 or 6 years by then (started dating at 12). We'd obviously had been having sex for a couple years by that point, and like you said, the very first thing I noticed was my orgasms. A couple weeks after taking it, it was like something just turned off the awesomeness of orgasms. I noticed my libido take a dip to some degree as well (typical with SSRI's or SNRI's), but cumming through jerking off or sex just wasn't even in the same ball park as before. Sure it felt good and I'd be satisfied, but it suddenly became almost too much work for very little reward lol. Sex became something I'd just do for my girlfriend. Then there was my drug habit. All of a sudden I'd be taking 60, 90, sometimes 120mg of Adderall in the morning, and sure, it'd jack me up energy wise, but that awesome peak of a feeling where everything feels right, you're full of confidence, and you can conquer the world was pretty much gone. I immediately noticed this as well. I can say the same for the come downs too though. They weren't nearly as bad, but at the sacrifice of the good feelings! lol! All in all, I'm clean now (admittedly took awhile), but I have a whole new outlook on drugs, ESPECIALLY anti depressants. I'd say damn near 90% of the people on anti depressants don't actually have a defect in their chemical make up, but are plagued by shitty life circumstances. For example, my sister just got on anti depressants, and when I asked why, her response was "you have no idea Bradderall420, sometimes I just wanna cry at the fact that I'd have to get up and walk to class. I just want to sleep, I can't even bring myself to clean my own room." Well that's awful, right?!? However, she's taking 23 credit hours at school to avoid having to do another semester, she's working damn near full time at a day care (actually gets 40 hours most weeks), and she JUST broke up with her boyfriend of 5 years. She absolutely may be depressed, but she doesn't have depression! She's exhausted, as anybody would be in her situation! Physically and emotionally worn down, due to life circumstances!!! But here's what it taught me. Sure, anti depressants make the bad not nearly as bad, but at the cost of the good not ever being nearly as good. It's a hard point to drive home, but I was trying to explain to her how fucking accomplished and terrific she's going to feel when she finally graduates, has made a good dent in her student loans already, and can finally start to enjoy life as an adult doing what she loves most, being an Elementary school teacher! I don't know if all that made sense, but yeah. I'm NOT AT ALL preaching my viewpoint on drugs, anti depressants, or mental health, I promise lol! Trust me, I'm the last person who has any leg to stand on there! I've done and tried anything I could get my hands on for awhile. I've lied and manipulated psychiatrists to get all sorts of drugs. It's only through all that, that I've come The the rationale that I have. Life is honestly just better without any of that shit! Look, orgasms fucking rock, don't they?!?!? Well that's how life can be when you're not made to be a 'zombie' with no highs and no lows! To each their own though! Good luck and congrats on finding the real O!
