Comparing Crazies

So I was having some pretty good sex the other night and a horrible thing happened. I lost my orgasm. Seriously, I thought it was coming and then poof, gone. Unfortunately this isn't the first time that this has happened... It's just the first time (recently) that it has happened with an audience. See, a couple of days before the good sex; I was having some quality alone time (with a battery operated assistant) and none of my usual tricks were getting the job done. Then it dawned on me, drugs may have stolen my orgasm. This led me to ponder a very important question: What is more important, mental health or sexual health?

See, I'm on a lovely mood stabilizing drug to help me deal with a bit of anxiety and OCD behavior with a hint of depression. And I haven't spontaneously burst into tears because I couldn't decide what salad dressing to use in over a month, so it's working really well. The problem is it has a disclaimer that states sexual dysfunction may be a side effect. WHAT?! Oh dear. Now, I don't remember this happening the first time I tried this particular drug a few years ago. Then again I also don't remember having sex during that time. So now I'm faced with a very important decision about what type of crazy I am willing to live with.

On one hand I am happy with the way I feel most of the time. One the other hand, I really love sex and used to have really incredible orgasms. I mean REALLY INCREDIBLE! To the point where I am known for shaking and laughing uncontrollably after I climax and smiling for hours on end. No exaggeration. But it seems that those days are over. So do I stop taking my anti-crazy pill so I can go back to enjoying the limited sex life I've acquired? Or do I stick with the pill popping and enjoy sex without the finale?
Decisions, decisions, decisions.

Well this is an obvious decision to me, coming from someone who was somewhat of a sex freak himself. Your physical health is more important than your sexual health. After all sex doesn't keep you alive and sex won't keep you from becoming INSULIN DEPENDENT.....
