how old is ur SO
Sex (or lack of) and depression.
My boyfriend and I have been together for 2 years. I have always suffered with depression, but in the last ten months or so, I have COMPLETLY lost my sex drive. Like we have literally done in mauve 5 times. Most of the time just thinking about sex makes me extremely anxious, and besides that, I just have NO drive. My boyfriend has been amazing through this but he's definitely getting pretty frustrated. I miss having a normal sex life too. It is definitely taking its tole on our relationship. Can anyone give me any suggestions to increase my sex drive?

lauren, sex is important in a relationship. Have your bf try foreplay. My husband is like you but we do foreplay then that gets him in the mood. he can't naturally be in the mood becsuse of issues going on. he agrees to try twice a week and do forrplay. it doesnt have to end in sex every week. use this time to talk about what you like in bed too and work together on a happy sex life
Are you taking an ssri? I've been on Zoloft, lexapro, Wellbutrin, & venlafaxine and all killed my libido. I never followed thru on anyone of them because my sex drive just became non existent. Venlafaxine helped most for depression related to my ppd. I stayed on it long enough to get over PPD but then got off because of low libido. I've heard of people taking maca root supplements but that's a question for the doctor because herbs can be just as dangerous and have side effects like prescriptions.
