My boyfriend took Zoloft about 2 years ago for a two year period. He has 0 sex drive and it is effecting our relationship. I am in love with him; but, we need help. He doesn't have insurance so he doesn't want to go to the doctor. Is there something over the counter for libedo?

I do not have an answer to your delima but my boyfriend and I can sympathize. I have been on 150mg of zoloft for about 1yr and since the very first week I have not been interested or excited about anything including sex. My boyfriend (of 9 years) has also been very loving and patient. I do what I can for him, but he doesn't want to feel like it's a chore for me. I am not too thrilled about Zoloft, but I too do not have the money or energy to keep trying new antidep's. I have been trying to find the right one since 1994. I don't want to face each new day, much less expend the energy making and going to another appointment. My family doctor said that if the Zoloft doesn't work, she's going to refer me to a pro. I can barely afford to pay her hoe does she expect me to pay a pro?
I have made call after call to find any kind of help but to no avail. Sometimes I think that the only way to get help is to try to hurt myself. Then maybe the State or someone would help. I hope you are still being there for your boyfriend, a good man is hard to find and your support of him is important. Just remember that he doesn't want to feel like that either, and he probably feels more stress about the situation than you. Deppression is not easily understood, even if you suffer from it. I have been on many different meds for my depression, anxiety, and ocd I don't think Zoloft is my answer either but for now it is keeping me alive and facing life each day. I'm not excited or enjoying it, but I'm still here. Hopefully you and he will find an answer soon. Best wishes and hang in there (both of you). K
