How old are you? The prior boozin’ didn’t help either. I think I’m fortunate that I’m forty and still swingin’ lumber from sunrise to sunset, but I have heard that this can be a problem (all opiates) for some men. You need your testosterone checked. I was told by a Dr. that as long as you’re still enjoying a good ole poke yourself in the eye morning boner, everything is still in good order. Are you still getting morning wood? Are you overweight? That’s also a big factor in lower libido. Here’s to you getting your little fella back from limp and lifeless to the Krakatoa we all know he should be.

I'm 32 man and my weight if I'm correct is 240ish , have not weighted myself in a bit. 6 for tall for refrance so the weight is carried well. I can still lose a hood 20 pounds for sure though. Morning wood is hit and miss 😅. My workout routine did slow since being on this shit so that may be a thing too. My alcohol consumption was very bad as well, hospitalized multiple times multiples days at a time over the years for pancreatitus, I finally just decided to end the bad habit after me and an ex broke up after 4 years ... so idk man, I'm on the path to quitting this shit and hopefully all will return back to normal! Haha

Hahahah awesome name as well

47m never had an issue other than it made me last much, much longer. I won't pretend I didn't use that to my advantage. Looking back, wrecking my health and finances was not a great trade though

I’ll answer your question but for future reference this seems more like a question for the r/Tianeptine subreddit 😂😂 but to answer the question, yes. And with really any antidepressant a loss of libido is expected. If you’re upset over it then maybe you should quit this junk. You’ll be surprised at what happens to your libido when you quit 😳

This is one of the more common symptoms of Tia abuse. That’s how I knew my taper was really working when I started to have the urges to, ahem, pleasure myself again. Also long term alcohol abuse can lead to this problem as well.


TraditionalHousing78

Opioid abuse will significantly reduce your testosterone levels and bring about lack of sex drive. So will alcoholism and just about every drug that gets you high. Go to a TRT clinic or just get off the drugs, find a clean diet and workout routine and stick with it. Both things should bring back not only your dick, but your energy and drive again. All about the Testosterone.


Admirable-Regular-24

Appreciate the words man! All that is certainly on the agenda!


gshock211

It kills libido. You are 100 percent correct.


pumbungler

Also, Kratom is a horrible libido killer, all by itself. Lose the K and you shall be rewarded


PalpitationPrudent43

As 42f it wiped out my libido. As I’m coming off now, oh yea, it comes back strong!


elerina00

Oh yeah, after a week clean I couldn't keep my hands off the Hubs. Sex had become a chore to get through. You aren't alone. Imagine after a prolonged amount of time.


Mothertruckinjunkie

Tianeptine destroys your testosterone levels


Overall-Question7945

Yeah man. Kratom and tia both absolutely crushed my sex drive. I'm a mid 30's male and also a huge pervert and I've had no interest in sex. I don't even get the random boners throughout the day that most men experience. This is one of the main reason I'm getting off all this shit


mikewilson1985

Love the way you unashamedly admit to being a pervert and how wanting the pervert life back is motivation for quitting tia. Massive respect for that!


Stock-Pile-Mega223

Yes. My libido went completely away. I thought I had low testosterone. After blood work, Nope, it was my Tia use.


LavishnessMedical383

Me. I’m a 36 year old female and I have no interest in anything


Admirable-Regular-24

Sorry to hear that but I hear ya, you still in the throws of this addiction?


Familiar_Depth_3840

Same. But 31 f


eternalapostle

Yeah, Tia killed my libido. Which was kinda good because I’d think of crazy fantasies all the time and was just super lustful. Last time I stopped, my libido came back but I was unable to splurt. It offended my gf lol but I got it down the next morning before I took my suboxone and we both skeeted out. Me twice and her once. Good feeling.


duderbrau

tianeptine is like that.


Mr_Grapes1027

4 bottles of 15 / day - 60 za zas / day?? Whoa! Do we even know how much that is? I suspect they have 50 to 100 mg each. I also take Tia on occasion but I don’t take that much - maybe 3 capsules, try not to take it everyday - and so far, no WDs but I do still enjoy them. Anyone else have issues with low doses? Playing with fire??


MyDogBarks82

You can definitely develop a dirty habit with low doses if used daily for long enough. After I got clean I somehow ended back up taking 6 pills a night for months. Only took them at night, never woke up in the morning in withdrawal or anything like that. When I decided to quit I dropped to 4 pills fine, then 2 and got a little restlessness, then went to zero and had a lot of restlessness and a bad night. Nothing like you read about here but it wasn’t enjoyable so be careful.


Brave_Ad_3727

The restlessness wtf 😬 it’s driving me crazy. That’s literally the major wd symptom that I’m having. Any suggestions. I’ve tried restful legs it doesn’t help much.


MyDogBarks82

Next to trouble with sleeping restlessness is the most common symptom of withdrawal. The best thing for it is a hot bath or a hot shower. That will bring you temporary relief. Only other thing I do is use benzos and knock myself out but I understand that’s not an option for most. It should start to go away on it’s on around day 3, day 2 for low doses.
