Anon - You say your boyfriend is having medical problems. You mention that he is very depressed. Some medications can reduce libido and nearly all anti-depressant medications do. If you are describing new behaviors they could be tied to his medications and his medical condition. Have you looked into this aspect at all or discussed it? What's being done to help him recover from his medical problems - sleeping all the time does not sound like a recovery program for dealing with an illness. Looking at the bigger picture of both his health status, treatment program and recovery progress could be helpful. He sounds like someone who is in need of support and dealing with that first so that he feels better would be helpful in getting other aspects of his life, such as sexual activity, back to normal too.
It also sounds like you need medical attention too. Not having periods isn't normal. Here is a link to information on free and low-cost medical services: http://www.needymeds.org/free_clinics.taf
If your worries about your lack of a sex life have gotten to the point where you're not able to function normally and truly do feel that you are "going out of your mind" then you may also want to see if free counseling services are also available in your area.
