Sexual side effects also affect women. I can not relate to this from a mans perspective but can give it to you from mine, a woman's perspective.

I find that for me the sexual side effects are much easier for me to deal with than the depression mainly because my depression leads me to suicide attempts.

Have you considered talking to your doctor about Viagra. It might help offset the side effects you spoke of? Just a thought
