Question: Cymbalta Lexapro etc antidepressants make orgasms impossible

I'm an 18 year old girl with Bipolar disorder. I take Cymbalta and Lexapro which are both anti depressants, Trileptal which is a mood stabilizer, and Buspirone which is an anti Anxiety medication. Does anyone know more about the sexual side effects these medicines may have? I have never once been able to orgasm, never, and I am almost positive that it is because of these medications. If anyone knows anything about this, do you know if there is anything else I might be able to take to try and counterract this effect? Does anyone have any information? Thank you.

It is possible that it is the medication as sexual dysfunction is one of the more common side effects. I have no suggestions how to counteract these symptoms while on the medications. Sorry.
