One of the symptoms of depression is the loss of interest in everything, including sex. Even though many people suffer from depression, they often do not realize it, believing that depression is an extreme state of mind. You may be able to function, after a fashion, while depressed, but you will function more effectively if you are not depressed. Look up 'depression' on the internet, and find out if you have other symptoms. Do not feel scared or humiliated about seeking help for depression. It is a form of mental illness, but is not the kind that will result in being institutionalized, except extreme bi-polar disorders, or severe chronic depression. However, left untreated, depression can lead to self-destructive behavior, including suicide. Avoid alcohol if you think that you may be depressed, as alcohol will intensify depression.
