    Sex drive?

    :blush::blush::blush: Ok embarassing question but here goes...

    Has your addiction to alcohol affected your sex drive? I am sad to say mine has, I just can never be bothered with it anymore I am seriously hoping that cutting down/quitting will mean I get my mojo back again because my hubby is getting really p*ssed off with me :upset:

    Does anyone know if this is a common complaint in alcoholics?

      Sex drive?

      When I was in long term relationships/ married yes, I couldnt be arsed and would just prefer to pass out after too much wine (Think that is to do with a bit of resentment at the person for trying to get you to quit? Was in my case!) but lately it's all I bloody think about when I am pissed and er... a lotwhen Im sober as well lol. I dont think I am in the right place to have a relationship at the moment though.

      My long distance ex is kind of creeping back into my life (God knows why, I was a complete bitch to him when pissed! Even though I blamed everything on him!) He knows I am in AA and I dont know whether he is offering me a final chance but to be quite honest a long distance relationship is stressful and I hated the crashing come downs after we would spend time together so I would... well, you know ... lol. I cant put myself in that position right now. If it's meant to be, it'll happen in time. Im not stressing over it as I cant afford to.

        I have to say it got to the point when my libido went from very high to non existent and I would rather drink than anything else. Plus when you're constantly drunk as a man it doesn't exactly help 'the general' stand to attention!

        Since quitting again I am happy to report my libido has returned.

        Why am I blushing?

          Question is: do you at least still know what to do with it?

              When I was drinking I couldnt really have cared less, like EW said drinking was far more important and when I was in a relationship it was usually just drunk crappy sex.

              A few months after getting sober my libido kicked in and i've been like a frustrated sex kitten ever since

                  Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. The important thing is not to stop questioning.

                      I got worse when I gave up drink, I found sober sex very difficult. I am better now but struggled for a while with it.

                            When ever I had one drink I couldn't stop till I passed out so on my drinking days it was rare for me to have had sex but I never lost my mojo. If anything I needed it more as I felt worthless and needed it to make me feel wanted. Now I'm sober it's every few days but actually it's been over a week as I've felt pretty low so maybe it's not soo much the drink that takes away our mojos, maybe it's the depression that comes with drinking... Just an idea!
