It's not like I'm really going anywhere in the relationship that I am in. I am in my 40's and I'm begining to wonder if this is normal. I feel that if my life circumstances were different that my sex drive would come back. Do you think it has anything to do with wanting to get married again. I had thought about doing this at some point in my life but it is impossible in the relationship that I am in. I like being single but I have been divorced for over ten years now. I like my independance and I just can't let a man dictate my life like the last two men I had. I haven't seen a guy yet who would let a woman make all of her decisions the way she wanted to without trying to influence her in some way. I'm afraid of being taken advantage of again.

NO you don't have to worry. These things happen. When your life gets back on track, this will correct itself! Take life as it comes.

I feel that your lack of libido has a lot to do with being in a dead-end relationship. Obviously you're not happy, so why don't you get out? What benefit are you getting from the relationship that makes you stay even though you know it's going nowhere? Of course you are depressed; you realize life's passing you by. You've had unhappy relationships and you are fearful that another one will be just as bad. In a good relationship there has to be a partnership; a give and take with neither one dictating to the other but both coming to a satisfactory agreement on each issue that you face. If you really want to get married again, first of all get out of the go-nowhere-relationship you are in. Then take a breather before you begin socializing. AND TAKE TIME TO GET TO KNOW SOMEONE WELL and pick carefully or stay single.

Well, most anti-depressants take away your sex drive so it probably is the major one to blame. On the other hand, your fear of being hurt can make it hard for you to open up. I lost my sex drive because I'm on meds but also because my boyfriend calls me names and makes me feel as if sex is dirty and nasty besides with him. Just remember though, a sex drive has more to do with you mind than your body. I suggest trying a different medication if you really want your sex drive back. Wellbutrin is an anti-depressant that has less risk of sexual side effects. In my opinion though, the best sex is dirty and nasty. All that lobby dubby love crap just ruins the passion in my opinion.

Ok first are the anti-depressants caused by not haveing a sex drive? if they are then you should get off of them because its only gonna hinder you from getting one. Anti-depressants curb certain emotions and chemicals that your body produces. Second if you really wanna start one up, start going to social events (i.e. clubs, parties, ect.) and just have a good time. If you meet a good guy cause there are few of us out there, dont take it serious just go with it. If it leads to something bigger then great if not dont worry bout it...the universe tends to unfold before your eyes to quote a a line from a movie. But like i said first get off the anti-depressants there only gonna make it worse, trust me i know from experience.

In the past, every time I went on any kind of anti-depressant, all my sex drive went out the window, regardless of what my actual relationship or sexual opportunites were. I doubt if your sex drive will return as long as you take anti-depressants, according to my experience. But within a few weeks of quitting, you should be ok.
