This is lame as fuck, but how do I get motivation for sex and

Depression severely fucks with your sex drive. Dunno where you are but if it's winter sitting around keeps you depressed, as well as the severely decreased sun. Figure out a way to do things outdoors and keep moving and in the sun, and stop looking at fucking porn for like a week and I can guarantee it will come back at least a bit. In addition, if you've been refraining from socializing, force it.

Hey, thanks for the reply. I have been going to the gym for the past 7 months 4 times a week, I get a massive libido boost when I go, but again it hardly lasts. I will stop porn altogether, and I'm going on a night out in a couple of weeks. Maybe drinks will let me feel something lol.

Thanks

Bump for interest.

Hey, I'm the OP. I don't want to sound pretentious or condescending when I say this, so I hope it doesn't come across that way...

Lately I've been doing deep relaxation, like taking 10 minutes out of my day to get into a state of complete relaxation and telling myself the stuff I don't need to worry about etc.

I'm not saying it's cured me, but I can shrug things off easier than I could before. I have done this in tandem to repairing relations with my Dad, which was the main cause of my depression so it may just be coincidence, but try it if you can.

I hope it gets better for you.

I believe the key to fixing our libido is to fix our depression first, which means fixing whatever got us depressed in the first place. I'm getting better and better because I'm fixing my financial problems, I've settled in a nice place and so on, I'm slowly getting there, and in turn I'm gradually feeling better.

Good luck anon.

I agree man, I feel libido perfectly fine when I'm with a girl and enjoying myself. When I get in a rut it's gone.

I guess life gets better, we can only hope.

Good luck to you too, I hope you can enjoy life again

The reason I know this is because I had the exact issue. Fact of the matter is the depression and isolation gives toy a diminished sense of self-worth, decreasing your sex drive, causing you to isolate further as you have one less(major) reason to go out, isolating you further. Vicious cycle, easy to spiral.

It's a sign you're not doing something you enjoy doing enough and have too many negatives going on. Focus on getting little shit out of the way that's built up, like cleaning your room or laundry. Much easier to deal with larger problems without the little ones nagging at you.

Also, depending on your personality, yes, going out and getting buzzed does help.

I think I've been so focused on the bad shit like you said, and have forgotten to enjoy the lust and happiness. I'm trying to get better and this is a good step.

Thanks man:)
