OK I am going to write about the underlying problem I am having at home. My husband and I have'nt had sex in a good month. I just don't feel like it ever....never. Now this is causing a problem for us. He talked to me about it tonight, and I just felt defensive. I just want him to accept that this is part of what I am going through, and not to make me feel guilty.I really just feel like crying. I had a horrible day at work, I have' t heard anything about the job yet, and now this. It seems like when it rains it pours. I don't know if this is going to be considered an appropriate subject here. But I just don't know what to do about the lack of sex drive. Anxiety and panic have taken so much from me, and it just seems to be a higher and higher price all the time. I really hate when I feel like I am at mercy of my mind. I work and work to try to be a normal as possible, and then something new pops up to remind me that I am not normal, and probably never will be!!!!

You are not abnormal, if you were this site would\'nt exist! As for an appropriate subject, again, your on DS we talk about everything!! Are you on any meds that might effect you sex drive? If not, I wou;ld see a Dr. and tell then whats going on. You\'re entitled to have yucky days and not feel up to it, but if it\'s upseting your husband, and you want to address it, then I would call your Dr. Good Luck, and I\'m thinking of you:) xoxo
It could be the meds, but agree with moonstar22. Thinking of you, and hope you get to feeling better!! :)
I know the feeling. This was my husbands #1 complaint while I was on Paxil. I would make up excuses just so he would leave me alone. He got so frustrated with me. Anxiety does take a lot out of you both physically and emotionally. I ended up switching medications recently and it is too early to tell you what the outcome is like. Hang in there and talk to a Dr.
hello darlin\' I know what you are going through, sometimes sex is just something you need to do to keep your husband satisfied. And I don\'t mean in a physical way... men are really affected by sex, the intimacy of it shows them affection more than words, it\'s just how they are programmed... so you should try just looking at it from his position, he\'s probably feeling unloved by you and unwanted... which is only going to cause negativity between the two of you, which is going to cause you more anxiety. I know that it\'s hard when you just don\'t feel it at all, I haven\'t had a sex drive for 5 years... I\'m sorry that you are going through this, it is difficult. We are here for you though.
