Wife has no desire for sex
Relationship Stress / by Jimlovesbbws

...See more I live my wife so much and we have a great marriage but she started suffering from PPD 3 years ago and her medication completely kills her sex drive. We have discussed it and she has made some small changes to get meds and dosage which has helped a little bit. We make an effort to be intimate without sex. She assures me that it's just temporary but dealing with this for 3 years is taking it's toll on me. I can't really justify putting my sexual needs over her mental health. Right now the kids are small and we are in survival mode. It's so hard to even get time alone for a regular date night now. When the kids get a bit older and more independent and we are still dealing with this problem that I will suggest couples counseling.
Am I a sex addict

...See more I've always had a very strong sex drive but as I've heard other men talk to me about their sex lives I think that mine is abnormal. If I don't have a regular sexual release my thoughts weigh on me and it's hard to focus on anything else. I'm married with kids so I have very little free time and privacy to masturbate. Because I need to finish quickly I have started watching porn more frequently. I would never choose porn over the real thing with my wife but her drive is so much lower than mine. I've never cheated on my wife, thinking about sex a lot can make it harder to focus on home and work but it doesn't prevent me from meeting my responsibilities, if I have the time and privacy I will usually choose to masturbate without porn, when I do consume porn I am intentional in staying away from things that are extreme or wife create an unrealistic expectation of sex. My community is strict and religious and I feel like they would label my behavior as unhealthy and call me an addict. Am I a sex addict or just a man with a high sex drive?
