Sex drive :(

[Imsuchamess]

I currently take sertraline, clonazepam, sodium valproate and olanzapine. I will be on the above medications for life with the exception of sertraline as I will be taken off that after a few months to stop me getting manic.

The olanzapine seems to be the worst for affecting my sex drive which I will be on for life hopefully.

My sex drive is zero I normally have sex 2-3 times a week. But now I just don't want any sex the idea actually repulses me. I force myself to have sex once a week for dh sake all the time praying he doesn't last long.

Will it always be like this? Or is it a side effect that over time will dissipate?

Unfortunately for me the complete loss of sex drive lasted the entire time I was on medication (olanzapine and escitalopram for a year and escitalopram alone for 1.5 years)
It also took a few months to return after I'd stopped them completely.
It really bothered me too.

Thank you very much violator.

I am on Sertraline, Olanzapine & Clonazapam when needed. I have been off & on meds for 20 years & have no libidio whatsoever. I got pregnant then started having panic attacks & have never been the same since. I have had hormone tests & psychotherapy but no one has any answers. It really upsets me but it's not the meds causing it.

I don't think any herbal supplements make any difference either. I just don't know what to do about it anymore.
