I’ve been suffering with depression for years though it is mostly manageable in daily life. The issue I have most is with my sex drive. When my partner and I started dating we would have sex very often, but since having our son I have absolutely no interest in having sex at all, and it’s really getting me down so much- it’s a vicious cycle.

I’m not on medication but manage my mental health pretty well with mindfulness and meditation etc, but it hasn’t helped my sex drive.

My partner tries to be patient but I know that he doesn’t really understand because I don’t even understand. I want to have sex and be close with him but it’s like my body and mind just..won’t. I want to make him feel as wanted and as sexy and as craved as he makes me, but I just feel so cold toward him and I hate it. I love him more than anything and don’t want this to keep going on.

Any advice on how to boost my libido would be massively helpful x
