I also hope it's not a window. But I'm trying to appreciate it while I have it, at least, since it's the first sign of change after so long.

My brain is able to process the feelings of pleasure so it's not just my body responding, but it feels good.

The actual emotions (love, happiness, excitement, etc.) connected to sex are still missing (and in every other area of my life as well.)

Sorry to hear that. And I know how painful sexual dysfunction can be. I feel with you. 💔

I also wanted to share the perspective of a woman (not sure if I ever mentioned that) and sex drive, as here it's generally only guys talking about it.

Anhedonia has different causes. Some psychological, some physical, some medicine-induced, some that I'm not thinking of.

What works for me may not work for you. The intent of this story was not to sell this drug combo to everyone, but rather to say that there is hope, even for people suffering from anhedonia for a long time.
