Answers:
The problem is that SSRI antidepressants (e!.g!. Paxil) cause very high rates of sexual dysfunction, in a study done about a decade ago looking at 4 of the SSRIs, the rates of dysfunction were 54-65%!.
For the men the dysfunction usually falls into:
a) loss of libido
b) ejaculation problems
c) impotence
So it sounds like your partner has been hit with (b)!. He may/may not be finding that genital sensitivity is not what it was, and that the time-to-climax has been steadily increasing with time-on-drug, as well as the difficulty with the climax itself!. Some individuals find they cannot climax at all!.
There are options, and the simplest way to access them, and their pros and cons, may be to read the chapter devoted to anti-depressant induced sexual dysfunction, in Joseph Glenmullen's book on SSRI side-effects, 'Prozac Backlash' - chapter 3 p!.106-134!. Any library should be able to request a copy for you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
