Questions need answering first, Wes. Are you stressed out, stress at home or work? Still get on OK with your wife? Still attracted to each other and sex life happy and varied? Loss of sex drive has various causes and implications. The more you doubt yourself the worse it gets.

The simple solution would seem to be a GP visit and get hold of Viagra but to work well, you need stimulation and the desire for them to work. Don't know how open you are able to be with your wife; but a visit to a genuine and experienced tantric sex practitioner may show what is or isn't going on for you.

Your GP hasn't helped you a lot. You might have come across to her as being depressed but she doesn't seem to have appreciated the root cause of it - just tried to treat the effects.

Hope you get sorted soon.

I do have a stress full job but never stop my sex life before, it is causing problems at home where my wife doesn't feel wanted, but I just don't want it, everything is ok with wife, If I'm honest I'm a bit worried as didn't think this would happen at 40

Have your testosterone tested. Of the anti depressant bills could be the problem.
