Hello...just seeking some advice. I am a 28-year-old married woman and I am a stay-at-home mom. I have had a history of severe depression but currently I am "stable" so some of this might play into my problem but I am usure of.
I do know I love my husband and child but my sex drive is soooo lowwwww and I feel guilt turning my husband down but I just have no desire for sex whatsoever. I have tried romantic evenings...erotic literature...and even adult entertainment...ie porn I guess to see if it would help out a little bit.
I was curious if any one had any tips on how to help in sex drive dept. Sorry this question is so graphic but just seeking some advice.
Thankyou very much.

You should join a gym and get your cardio up every day. Will make you feel more in touch with your body and make you feel more into physicality. A good flow of endorphins is also a great anti-depressant. Just try it.

Girl, stop thinking that there is something wrong with you! That's the depression talking! We all have different characteristics. Some are more athletic than others, some more creative, some more guarded, some more joyous. The list goes on and on. If we all were cookie cutter people that were the same, then why find that special one? You are unique! Not about the sexual drive thing, my wife is like that too. However, you must accept yourself as you are. You understand you have a low sexual drive. That's great! You are far ahead of most women still trying to find themselves! What I am saying is just look at yourself in the mirror. That is the person you are. Once you accept that why should you be depressed. Let others not accept you. Cling to those who do! My wife is the same way. I dropped this concept on her 10 years ago. Not one episode of depression since. She gets blue, sure! We all do. But, she has never dropped into that dark funk that she did way back when! The sexual thing for me isn't a big problem even though I classify myself as a horndog! I look at her other characteristics that I fell in love with 20 years ago! I've never been disappointed in her character, well, she spend too much, but other than that, I can live with the small differences. I don't want some one just like me! As Paula Abdul sang "opposites attract!"
