Question Hello, I don't know if you can help me but I figured I might as well ask.
I am a 20 year old female, and have been dating a guy for the past 4 and a half years. We are both very in love with each other. Our relationship is generally wonderful, the only problem is: I have no sex drive.
I am on quite a few medicines: prozac, cymbalta, and seroquil (all for depression/bipolar) and I know that side effects of these can be decreased sex drive but I have been on and off these for about 3 years and still I have no sex drive. For the first year and a half of our relationship I had one, then when I got more depressed it decreased.
I just wanted to know if there is anything I can do to make it come back. Like I have watched Dr. Phil on this and some lady didn't have one with her husband and she got some blood test done to check a few of her hormone levels. And it turned out that some of them were either decreased or elevated and that was what was causing the decresed sex drive and they were able to give her medicine to fix it. I tried talking to my dr. but she basically just said its my medicine and kicked me out. I know I have to be on my medicine, but I also we can not go on having a relationship that is successful with only having sex once every couple of months. He is very acceptive of what is going on. But sometimes it just gets to be too much and neither of us can deal with not having intimacy.
ANd its not that I DONT want to have sex, its more like I just can't get in the mood to save me. And even if I am slightly in the mood, I can't get my body to act on it. And when we do have sex...its him enjoying it not me.
So any advice would really be great.
Thanks so much.

Answer I feel as though you've answered your own question.
but I do have some tips!
Research some foods or nutrients that raise/lower your labido.
Try new things. One day you might find out that you find pleasure by having anal sex, more than vaginal. Try things out.
Find an online community or group that has the same problems. I don't know much about this, but i hope I've helped!
By the way, I take Lamictal (well, the generic Lamotrigine) for Manic Bipolar Disorder (it runs in my family--) It works great and my sex drive hasn't changed a bit since!
