Is It Normal to have no sex for 2 yrs & still not wany it?

I have not had sex  for  over  2 years  ( that is what he says)  and I have no desire for it at all .

None  nothing , no craving, desire need want  thought.

He said  I am whore  bitch I must be  screwing someone  for not one person in the world can go without  sex  that long  , have no desire what so ever  with  no  reason.  That I must be  cheating   I am not cheating .

I just  do not want  to be  touched  looked at  thought of  in that way  at all. Exspecially by him.

Am I sick in the head?

I'm sorry, I seem to have a very different response from what other's wrote. It sounds to me like he's abusive and has put you down to the point where you are developing physical symptoms and mental depression symptoms. You have to go back to before the pills, what put you on them? Do you really love, respect, adore this man who calls you a bitch, whore, and other anatomical parts? How can you be passionate when he's like that?
I'd go and contact the local battered women's shelter for counseling and see if you could get a handle on what's underneath.

Best of luck to you

NO! you are not crazy! I'm on Cymbalta and still have desires. However, if you are not sexually attracted to your husband anymore, I don't care if you are on meds or not, it's NOT going to happen! Do you still have desire for him? find him sexy, if the thought of him touching you sexually makes you cringe, then, I think it's a wrap!

Birdie,
You ARE NOT CRAZY for not wanting sex.  I am weaning myself off of Cymbalta (you can't just stop!), and I've noticed that I want sex!  I didn't want it at all, but I have no desire to call my STBX and have it with him!  Yuck-- the insults and abuse alone are enough to make me not want to even talk to him, let alone do it!  Hang in there -- and you'll feel 100% better physically, emotionally and mentally once he's gone.  Once I got rid of mine I had no need for meds anymore!!!

Birdy, there is nothing wrong with you. I can tell you from experience that medications have a lot to do with your sexual drive. But I think think more importantly is the way your are being treated. Why on God's green earth would you have the sexual desires to be with someone who calls you names and treats you like dirt. I went the last year before my stbx left without any intimacy. I just couldn't lie there and pretend to enjoy having sex with him. And that was all it was, SEX. In my beliefs you can have sex with anyone if you need to fill your needs. Fortunately for me, I don't need nor do I crave sex just the same as  you. I believe in waiting for that special someone and then making passionate love and having long intimate nights and maybe days, LOL, with someone who can fill my heart and soul. That is what sex is really all about. Hope I didn't get you all steamed up ther. Sorry if I did. Take a cold shower.LOL

And two years is a drop in the bucket.  I haven't had one iota of desire for wife in over nine.

Birdy, you're not sick.  You're just not loved.  Who wants sex without love?  Maybe when we were young and stupid, but not now.  Add to that the medications and his horrible treatment of you, and you shouldn't want sex with him.  Don't worry, get yourself healthy and find someone who loves you, and you'll want sex, and it'll be great.

Hang in there.

those meds, on top of all of your injury, AND on top of him being a dick on legs - can pretty mcuh sqush any sexual desire.

Speaking of gross things said to you in the bedroom - I had a bf in college, it wasn't casual, but it wasn't that serious either - we were in bed, about to have sex, when he said "I'm going to ride you like a harley on a bad piece of road" - I told him to get the hell out of my bed and my house, when he didn't understand why I said "put it this way you moron, you and your harley took a wrong turn and wiped out - learn how to talk to a woman you pig!"

and that was that.

Thank You all for  telling me I am not Crazy!
Yes I am On  a few medications  . Topamax for  Sever migrans, Cymbalta for Sever Depression, 20 morphine  3 x's day  for   degentive disk diseases , 3 bulging disk in my neck , two in my lower back ,  wires in my  spinelcord, never  damage  in  my left  arm ,  sever  damage to  my left knee cap and  three surgeries  to my left  leg . But Even when I used to want him  the second he  said  something stupid  like  calling my Vagina  a golden Pus*y and I think  it as that  or he would group at me and hurt me and not care  when I would  tell  him slow down  take it easy  your hurting me & he would  ignore me or  yell at me and  say I am  lying  that pretty much turnd me off .

You are not sick in the head. You can not be intimate with someone who treats you like SHIT!!!!!   How can you want sex with someone who is mean and nasty to you. He does not deserve your love. You truly need to find someone who will treat you with respect.  I am thinking of you and praying for you that you get out of this horrible situation.Take care!

Birdy,
You are on some type of meds. Talk to your doctor and see if he can help. It might be whatever medicine you are taking. Some medicines can do that to you. The fact that your hubby is a controlling, abusing nasty person doesn't help either. No, you are not sick in the head.
Take care

I would suggest some counseling, There obviously is more to this then just sex. I know when my ex-wife started using sex as a tool it turned me off and I wanted nothing to do with her, and I to was accused of having an affair. the fact of the matter is when she stop acting like my life long partner I wasn't attracted to her sexually. So get some help if you want to find out what is the real root of the problem. I hope you and you both have the strength and the patience to get through it.

Good luck
