    Not specifically later in life, i just didn’t give enough attention to it before to be able to notice it. It could have been there since the beginning, just masked by other factors. Internal working is a rather complicated and confusing subject and can easily take years or more to pinpoint the origin, why or how something works and how different factors influence it.

    Sex and libido goes under it, i need months to years worth of observational data to notice specific behavioral habits and trends and then collate all the information to form some sort of a theory.

    I doubt it’s depression, I’ve have had that one before. After i quit alcohol(borderline alcoholism), so i have comparison material how that functions in my body and behavior, neither there are any other symptoms of depression. Energy levels are up, mood is ok, bloodwork is ok, motivation is ok, picked up new hobbies over the years, no depressive taughts, I’ve even learned to notice and redirect negative spiraling, sleep is as good as it can get with shift work.

      Hmm I dunno then. Interestingly, there are actually a couple of drugs out there for women with low sexual desire if it bothers them in an attempt to help it. Idk how well they work and to my knowledge, I don’t know if there are any for men. I mean, obviously there are erectile dysfunction meds for men, but I don’t know that they impact desire.
