Re: Prayer Board

No sir! After 25 years I would stop immediately if this was the issue. I’ll be open and honest with my brothers. My wife has had 7 back surgeries and 2 neck surgeries. From chronic pain she’s been eating 180 hydros/ month for the last 15 years. I’ve tried to help her through pt and gym time to get through this naturally but to no avail. Anyway hydros strip you of your sexual desires. I’ve been good and patient for what seems forever but to me this has come to a head. It’s been 4 years since we’ve had any kind of physical contact. Not even a kiss. I’m sorry I’m just tired of tryin, praying doing whatever to be intimate with my own wife. When I try and talk with her she says she doesn’t have any of these feelings anymore and don’t know if they’ll ever come back. I’m at the end of options. Help brothers! Don’t know what to do

Awwe bro, that is some heavy stuff and I am sorry. Well you and I are going through some of the same issues pertaining to prescription drugs affecting sexual desire and creating dysfunction. Yeah sounds like counseling is needed for both of you. She should be willing to do anything for you if she loves you. Nicole hasn't been able to have an orgasm in over 2 months due to her SSRI'S, but she still wants to satisfy me as much as possible, and she says it's good, just can't finish due to being numb down there. Opiates are horrible, and she will need to go into a detox I would think to get off since she has been on for so long. You have been one understanding husband, and patient to boot. I am a sexually driven man, and like Pastor Myles Munroe mentions in his sermons, it's not that men want sex, men need sex. It's biblical in a marriage. Intimacy is a must in a marriage, God created this institution for man and a woman to have this wonderful blessing. Nicole just had an appointment with her psychiatrist this past week and discussed this sexual dysfunction issue, and after AM and I talked/messaged, we got her doctor to prescribe her Wellbutrin and start weening her off of the SSRI Lexapro, which is causing the sexual dysfunction. Things seem to be getting better for her mood wise, haven't tested the waters in the bedroom yet but in time. The difference is she wants to get better and change, sounds like you and your wife need to have a serious heart to heart. Like O says we are here for you my brother, vent all you need, and know you are not alone.

Re: Prayer Board

She says she doesn’t need help. She obeys the label on the bottle to a tee. 1-2 every 4-6 hours. She never goes past that even if she’s watching the clock to the minute. I do believe God can restore anything. Please pray and thanks for your encouragement O means the world brother.

We’re here for you man! Regardless of the pill situation or not, we ALL need help at times. It’s called being human. I have a great marriage. I’m married to my best friend, there’s no doubt. But I remember a time where I came home from work and she’s on the couch with a phone number, a therapist. She said call or I’m out, you have to learn to ask for help. I’m glad I did, I’m a different person 10 years later.

I try to explain to people everywhere that we all can get help, even if we believe we don’t need it. Asking for help, wanting help; it’s strength, not weakness. You will get through this

Well it’s definitely the opiates causing a lot of that numbing!! She needs to get some help with that part. Honestly I 100% believe she can feel all those things again. Sometimes we all
Break down, as people and as couples but anything can be restored. Help is there, but you have to reach for it. 4 years is a long time to be sidelined, I’d do anything and everything I could to reconcile some differences.

Re: Prayer Board

Marital problems I’ve never encountered before. Been rough. Prayers for Holy Spirit intervention would be great brother. Thanks O

Is it due to PED's?
