What pills would even do that? I know that anti-depressants can have that effect, but it's usually temporary (i.e. the libido-suppressing effect subsides after taking them for about half a year).

I’ve never heard of this effect being usually temporary.

If it doesn’t subside in a few weeks it often requires additional medication to solve and to my knowledge, for most people, lasts for as long as you take it

That's been my experience with SSRIs.

[-] rumschlumpel@feddit.org 2 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Shrug. That's exactly what happened to me when I took anti-depressants. I suppose it might depend on the specific medication.

[-] Lightfire228@pawb.social 8 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

SSRIs (depression and anxiety meds) can cause decreased libido as a side effect

They don't kill my sex drive, but I sure can't cum wile on them.

[-] LH0ezVT@sh.itjust.works 3 points 6 days ago

That sounds like the worst of both worlds.

I only know a few use cases of chemical castration and now I’m convinced they use “pretty” to mean “underaged”. Yikes.

[-] blarghly@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago

and now I’m convinced they use “pretty” to mean “underaged”.

What led you to that conclusion? I'm not seeing it.

[-] Mac@mander.xyz 3 points 6 days ago

They're making reference to pedos being forcibly chemically castrated.

[-] rooroo@feddit.org 7 points 6 days ago

Not necessarily forcefully; apparently it can be also part of a treatment when people notice that what they perceive as preference is a harmful sickness. I don’t see that person be that aware though, fair.

[-] rumschlumpel@feddit.org 16 points 1 week ago

Thanks. Those side effects definitely make anon sound like a dumbass.

[-] rumschlumpel@feddit.org 8 points 1 week ago

Seems to be a myth. Does explain where OOP might have gotten the idea, though.

Lions mane tend to decrease/kill libedo as a side effect.
