Wife has no desire for sex

Jimlovesbbws April 1st, 2022

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.
