Hi, I'm 22 years old,not on the pill, and have been experiencing a diminishing sex drive for about a year and a half now. At this point, it's almost as though I could stand never having sex again. I know that this is not normal, however, so I've come to ask for help with my situation. I never feel aroused and have dificulty engaging in sexual activities with my boyfriend. Pleasuring myself is not an option either, as I can no longer arouse myself. I've been in a commited relationship with my boyfriend for about 2 1/2 years now, and this is really begining to take a toll on our relationship - help!
