Protect your sex drive! 😷😳
Hi!
I’ve spent a long time trying to figure out what happened to my sex drive.
And it’s probably a lot of different things.
Hormonal issues, for sure. Boredom and depression never helped me get in the mood either - and I’ve got too much of those. I also find novelty exciting and that’s really hard to come by these days.
But I think the thing that really did me in was mono.
I got it when I was just about to finish high school, and it wiped me out. Instead of going to class, I was on bed rest for a while.
It took me a long time to recover, but eventually I was back on my feet.
Or at least, I thought I was.
Because I don’t actually think I ever got over mono. Instead, I just developed all these mysterious symptoms that none of my doctors could explain.
Symptoms that happen to line up with the chronic outcomes a lot of people experience after their infection clears up.
Mainly, it’s chronic fatigue and brain fog.
Those two have done a real number on me. And because of them, I often feel trapped inside my own body.
I feel full of ambition but some days I can barely get out of bed.
I have all these small, reasonable goals - but on some days I can barely think straight. And it’s hard to get anywhere when your brain is out of order.
I’m fully obsessed with sex, too. Always have been. But ever since those chronic symptoms crawled into my life, I’ve been really struggling to want it.
Because it’s incredibly hard to get in the mood when your brain’s cloudy.
It’s tough to get excited for some spicy action when you’re too tired to get through the day.
And it’s not easy feeling cute and fuckable when you feel exhausted and over with everything by two o’clock in the afternoon.
Which really sucks, because sex is awesome. Even when I don’t want it, I still know that.
Getting banged good and proper can brighten a dull day. Losing yourself in all that intense pleasure is one of the best things your body can experience. Hot sex pumps up your self-esteem so you can keep feeling great long after your last orgasm.
But getting sick really messes with that.
As someone who really values sex, I’ve been pretty pleased with my Twitter timeline lately - or X, I guess.
Because it’s all been the same three things.
Lewd drawings, which I always appreciate.
Hot girls wearing barely anything - that’s highly welcome, too.
And tons of selfies of people wearing N95 masks, all with the exact same caption.
“Y’all masking?”
I’m happy to see all of them doing it - and I hope more people are, too.
Because getting chronically ill like me is no picnic - and my version isn’t even that extreme.
And getting Long Covid or repeat Covid infections can majorly screw up your sex life.
There’s the fatigue and brain fog, which will tear your sex drive a new one.
Even if it doesn’t, fucking while chronically ill means not having the energy to go hard, to go long, or to go at all.
Not to mention the fact that Covid can cause erectile dysfunction. That doesn’t have to end your sex life or anything, but it’s definitely an adjustment.
I’ve spent the last few years being as safe as I can. I’m immunocompromised, so I don’t really have a choice.
I haven’t stopped masking. And I really hope more people are starting to take precautions, too.
Because getting sick is bad enough. Losing your sex drive makes it even worse.
Love,
Emma ❤
