    Loss of libido on Acamprosate

    I've been on Acamprosate since October and have been abstinent since mid-November. To me, its a life-saver of a drug and I seem to respond amazingly well to it! (Hooray!)

    However, it appears to not only take away my desire for alcohol, but also my desire for sex (linked?. I don't mind too much, but I'm concerned that it might not recover when I stop taking it. My question is has anyone else experienced this side effect and has the problem resolved after stopping the medication?
    The most exhausting thing in life is being insincere.

    Yes, I did, and yes, it will go away when you stop taking it.
    In the middle of my life's journey, I found myself in a dark wood, as I had lost the straight path. It is a difficult thing to speak about, how wild, harsh and impenetrable that wood is. Just thinking about it recreates the fear. It is scarcely less bitter than death, but in order to tell of the good that I found there, I must tell of the other things I saw there. --Dante, paraphrased
