Hello Cupid, I'm a newbie here but I have some relationship problems. My guy loves me very much we've been together for 6 years now in July. We are the point where we are ready to give up and split and I don't want that to happen. He does love me but he also likes to surf porn and chat online to other women it makes me feel as though I have to be like them. He is also a very sexaul person and I am not. I've been taking medicine for depression and it affects the sex drive. I just need help I want to be his friend again believe in him and trust him again. Is there any help for me????? I just need someone to talk to someone who would listen to all my problems and give advice I know I would feel much better to just get it off of my chest. Thanks for reading and listening. Hope you will help me.

Antidepressants can cause loss of libido as well as several other forms of sexual dysfunction that lasts AFTER you quit taking the drug and can be permanent.

BeHereNow agony auntFor the low sex drive, you can ask your doctor about other antidepressants. I am on Wellbutrin which is known for having low sexual side effects and it hasn't affected my drive at all. There are also natural antidepressants that you can find out about at a vitamin store - samE, st. john's wort, etc. and exercise and a good diet (limit sugar, caffeine alcohol and refined carbs) helps a lot with depression.

YummyMummy agony auntIf you wat to talk and get a lot of things off your chest may I suggest counselling. It workied wonders for me. Chatting to someone who didn't know me otr my family or anything that had happened. Talking to someone like that really helped.

With you guy can you not talk to him about the porn and chatting to other women as it leaves you feeling unloved, belittled etc. He may not realise he's hurting you so bad.

I have a very low sex drive due to being pregnant at the moment and occasionally my boyfriend will say something that sounds like a dig and we'll have a bit of a row. I'm not going to have sex just because he wants it and I dont. I dont think that's right. I know my guy hates it like this but I've told him I wont be forced and I wont just lay there like a sack of spuds while he gets off.

Hope this helped!

Good Luck!
