Low "sex drive" ?

[Nimm]

Ok, im in a "relationship", great girl, nice, sweet and everything.
However 2-3 weeks ago, ive started to become less "horny", i can have sex one day and not "feel" like it for 4-5 days (don`t even go solo )
Anyone ever been in a similar situation?

Im in my 20ish, don`t take medication or anything, so otherwise in great shape.

No, I have never gone through this and never will. However, low sex drive in young people is often associated with low energy. Are you eating good? Do you drink at least 7 cups of water a day?

I went through this two separate times for at least two weeks over the past year and a half. I had also had a girlfriend when it happened to me. I can attest to what rocky said. Whenever I had the problem I had low energy. Along with drinking a lot of water, take some fish oil since it supposedly improves your mood, which can only further help you.

When I went through my last funk (3 weeks ago), I wasn't really talking to that many people besides my close friends and gf. To try and get my horniness back, I started talking to more people, especially girls, and before I knew it I was getting hard before my gf was even trying to touch me. Keep us updated and good luck.

Thanks for the tips.
I went to the store and got fish oil capsules ( i assume you mean that i need vitamin d/omega 3 supply) and some other vitamins. I also calculated that i should be drinking alot more water.
So ill give it a try, and report back in some days

People have mentioned exercise and diet but no one has mentioned sleep. Are you getting enough sleep? That's important too, 7-8 hours.

Edit: Also remember that missed hours of sleep pile up, giving you a "sleep debt" to make up.

Not true.

Ok
It`s been one week now... i`ve have used the fish oil capsuels/pills, decreased eating stuff with sugar, smoked less( im going to quit 4 days from now), sleept more and keept up with water intake.

Still nothing...

Can it be a horomon balance issue? anybody been in a similar situation?

Alexander the Great apparently had a low sex drive.

FWIW.

Sounds stupid, but like I said before, try interacting with more people on an everyday basis if you don't already. If that doesn't work than its most likely all mental. Easier said than done, but just relax.

I started this thread in the H+F forum with some ideas that might help...

Follow up

I decided to do a follow up on my thread, reagarding my "problem".

I was reading diffrent post`s and stumbled upon a link in VICE`S sig..
"Your brain on porn"

I started reading the page out of curiosity, and it made more and more sense to me.

What? im addicted/messed up from porn?

Yup, it makes sense....

Haveing sex with my gf the first time was easy, but it went boring after the second time....

No matter what she does, im not getting aroused.. So i had to start thinking about porn to get aroused(mhhh Jenna jameson does this... belladonna this..
You get the idea...)

The signes were there a year or two ago, but it never hit my mind because i wasn`t with the same girl long enough.

Drinking in the week days to get by, you`ve got an addiction..

Smoking two 20packs a day, you`ve got an addiction..

Watching internet porn an hour or two a day, YES YOU`VE GOT AN ADDICTION.

So i urge, if there is anyone else in the same "rut" as me.
