Decreased Intimacy and Eating Disorders?

Question

I'm dealing with an eating disorder currently and I also just got into a new relationship. I have practically zero sex drive, and I want it back so badly. I want to have sex with my boyfriend but I'm conflicted. What can I do to get more "excited" about sex again?

Answer

Probably by being able to eat properly again. I'm sorry if that comes across as rude but I think that's the only thing that will make you excited about having sex again because right now your mind is focusing on other things to be thinking about sex fully if that makes sense? I've had depression and I still have a lot of anxiety problems and sometimes I really can't feel excited about having sex at all like some days it doesn't appeal to me at all them other days o feel like I want it. I know that you're gonna be able to over come eating disorder, it's sounds clique but everything's gonna be okay

Answer

Have to get your eating disorder under control, you're probably depressed as well so it will be really hard to get any sex drive or be in the mood at all, because your mind is being occupied by something else completely. Have to get some help first, get comfortable with yourself again.
