LMAO...sorry to laugh but "beat me off with a stick"...that is too funny!!!
Well dude, all opiates will cause this lack of sex drive. We've all been there, and while I am no guy, I will say that your sex drive will come back strong and you will enjoy it so much more when it does!
Not methadone, but my sex drive went to the gutter due to opiates. I could even get myself off, and that's bad. But you will be happy to know it all comes back...............
I'm not a guy, and I'm not on Methadone, but I have heard many many times that this is very common with Methadone. The good news is .....it does come back.
hehehehehehe I meant to say I COULDN'T get myself......
P.S. I am single, in Florida and I HAVE A STICK ! LOL
LMAO. Give me about six months and we'll talk. This is too funny.
there is no such thing as sex (for men) who are on methadone...i am glad your getting your (sex life) life prioritized again...lol...good luck...
i meant to add...i am a women..methadone didnt effect me like that...nothing seems to for some reason...guess i'm lucky
What the heck, whats 6 more months after 4 years. LOLOLOL
it totally destroyed my sex drive. my poor hubby was going crazy!! but when i quit it was back with a vengeance, better than ever!!! it seems all of my senses were on hyper mode. i could smell the roses again, taste food again and sex was, like i said before, on hyper mode.

Let's start a new forum and call it "Sex lives of recovering addicts"!!!
I know the feeling, when I was on a higher dose of methadone I to felt no desire for men or sex, nothing, I mean zero! I began to question what was wrong with me? Till I found out that this is just another wonderful side effect that methadone has on men & women. But it does come back, as its doing with me. Take Care Penelope
Yep. Mine was shot to hell until I got back down below 10 milligrams. Then it started coming back ((unzip)*Tap Tap*...is this thing on?!?!).
Of course, then it's a matter of what the hell do you do with it? If it's been long enough...well, you can send away for an instruction manual.
Of course, for some reason they kept sending mine in Japanese. I decided to try and just use the diagrams as a guideline, but they're in metric which I'm not as familiar with so the whole thing ended up with embarrassing trip to the hospital. :)
I lost my sex drive and put on 20 pounds on the methodone.The only good thing about this withdrawl is with how sick I still get when I try to eat I'll be back in my size 8 before summer gets here.
Never took methadone but the hydros made me lose focus on everything fun in my life after a while...i do remember when my sex drive came back...it was sudden and full force...she better be ready whoever that lucky girl may be! LOL
Opiates, synthetic or not = 'just say no to sex' :)
Get off of opiates and you can...well you know! Lmao
