Anyway it used to be great with a capital G, but ever since my husband started his antidepressant crap -which I know he needs but it's just frustrating!- our sex life has gone totally down the tube. I'm talking we have sex like maybe once every 3 months, if that. So thats equivalent to maybe 4 times a year OMG. I'm not kidding you guys it is getting really bad. I'm so glad this poll was here because I was going to ask if any of you have gone though this before? With either you or your partner being on medications that have decreased either of your sex drives? I don't know what the hell to do anymore. I have pretty much just given up If someone has any advice please do tell!

After my husband came back from iraq he was very traumatized-there are some things he can't even talk to me about that happened over there-well they put him on Paxil and our sex life was GONE!!! so i know how it messes with your self-esteem...after awhile i realized that it was better to just hold each other and have foreplay for a long time because there are things he can do to make you you-know without actual intercourse....plus you can always throw some "toys" in there. if he is not interested in that kind of thing call his doctor and see if there is some other type of medication he can take that won't affect your sex life-is he having trouble with his manliness staying up or just no interest at all no matter what you do? if it's the man thing you can have his doc put him on cialis or viagra. good luck sweetie pie
