Antidepressants killed my sex drive permanently?

I’m a bit lost and really don’t know what to do.

About 18 months ago I started on antidepressants, tried 3 different types over about a year. They all gave me various side effects including zero sex drive.

Four months after coming off them due to not coping with the side effects, I still have no sex drive and it’s destroying my relationship sad I’m fed up of waiting for it to come back. The doctors said it could take a few weeks but it’s been so long.

Has anyone experienced this? I do try and initiate things with my DP but I’m just really really not interested. We had such a good sex life before this and now we’ve done it about three times in 4 months. I love him very much and fancy him, I just don’t want him sexually. I feel nervous even thinking about it.

But do you think this could be psychological and that I’m just not used to it? When we do have sex, it’s good but I still don’t quite have the same desire. I don’t know how much longer I can do this.

Any advice would be really appreciated.
