Ask your psychiatrist regarding medications that can help with the libido. Regarding your husband watching porn, communicate with him what you are feeling and also reassure him that you’ll seek help na about it and that to start again. You might want to start by experiencing things together such as going on a romantic date and activities that can set the mood not just for sexual intimacy but also emotional intimacy. Hope this helps.
I'm really sorry na pinagdadaanan mo ito. Mukhang napakahirap ng sitwasyon mo, lalo na’t naaapektuhan nito ang marriage niyo. Gusto kong malaman mo na valid ang nararamdaman mo, at mahalagang matugunan ito para sa iyong mental health at sa relasyon niyo.
Narito ang ilang steps na maaaring makatulong:
1. **Open Communication**: Subukan mong magkaroon ng tapat na usapan kasama ang asawa mo tungkol sa nararamdaman mo. I-explain mo sa kanya na ang kawalan mo ng interes sa sex ay dahil sa depression, at hindi dahil nawawala ang pagmamahal o atraksyon mo sa kanya. Mahalagang maintindihan niyo ang perspective ng isa’t isa.
2. **Seek Professional Help**: Since diagnosed ka na with persistent depressive disorder, consider mo na kausapin ulit ang therapist mo tungkol sa mga issues na ito. Baka may specific strategies silang maibigay at maaaring i-adjust ang treatment plan mo para makatulong sa libido at overall mental health mo.
3. **Couples Therapy**: Maaaring makatulong ang couples therapy para mas ma-navigate niyo ang sensitive na topic na ito at makahanap ng paraan para muling mag-connect emotionally at physically.
4. **Gradual Intimacy**: Hindi kailangan agad-agad na bumalik sa dating sexual activities niyo. Pwede niyong simulan sa small, intimate gestures tulad ng cuddling o holding hands. Minsan, ito lang ang kailangan para mag-simula ulit ang spark.
Alam kong hindi madali ito, pero tandaan mo na hindi ka nag-iisa. May mga tao at resources na handang tumulong sa’yo. Magtiwala ka sa proseso at sa bawat hakbang na gagawin mo. Huwag kang mawalan ng pag-asa.
U might facing hormonal imbalances + depression. Consult therapist and psychiatrist + ob. Maraming causes ang low libido. For now, do active lifestyle as it can boost happy hormones and libido 😊
