Hi Michele,
I was actually on an anti-depressant for a while and it helped me greatly. I have IBS-C and it didn't make me constipated and I was virtually symptom free while I was on it. It was fluoxetine and it is recommended for patients with IBS C. i didn't get any side effects apart from a bit of tiredness in the first few weeks. As for sex drive, well mine has been somewhat diminished since the birth of my son so I can't really say for sure but I didn't notice that it made things any worse!
