I am on Lexapro for depression and anxiety and I have sexual side effects as well. My doctor gave me Wellbutrin to help with the side effects, it help my libido but I still have trouble climaxing (it takes a really long time). I am up to a 300mg dose with a 20mg dose of Lex but it's not doing much to help me at all. it does have a positive effect for the anxiety, but not the sexual side effects. I am in the same boat as you with the whole relationship thing.
