Anyway, before I got pg I was on Wellbutrin, which did not diminish my sex drive or responsiveness at all - in fact, it may have enhanced it. I thought I read somewhere that some docs prescribe a low dose of buspar (generic name for WB) in addition to other antidepressents to help counteract the sexual side effects. I was on Zoloft before the Wellbutrin and NOTHING could move me to climax - it was so frustrating for both of us. When I deliver and wean this baby, I'm going back to Wellbutrin as it made such a big difference in my quality of life. Anyway, good luck to you and I hope you find a solution soon.
