i agree.

i also noticed that among people who have been raped etc. there are users who intendingly use opiates to suppress their sexuality
 
When I first started doing heroin, my girlfriend at the time and I would basicly snort some heroin and make "love" all night, not always sexual penetration, but more like caressing each others bodys and eventually sex later in the night. As I used more heroin and other opiates, my sex drive went down quite a bit, this is natural, as the heroin fills the brains pleasure centers(some of them) with the warm lovely(at first) blanket feeling of bliss. You do not feel emotions as much on dope, and sex is one of the things you just are not really interested in once you have a habit,the bigger the habit, the less you care about sex,food, etc..you feel that all is good while high, the heroin is tricking your brain into feeling all your needs are taken care of or "fixed" ,which is where the term fix I have read and heard comes from, you feel that all your needs for sex,food,and other pleasures are "fixed" or fufilled..Once you kick heroin , your sex drive comes back. Other things can lead to losing ones sex drive though, some of the things that lead some people to use heroin or opiates as an escape from the often unpleasant and harshness that is reality..thats my opinion and my shrinks as well, lol..anyway take this for what it's worth, I have been there and come back from there and gone back,etc..Everyone is different though,so if you use dope purely to escape the reality of the world in a way,as most people tend to do on heroin at some point, but if thats why you start, to dull your senses so you do not feel any mental pain and so on, that may indicate an underlying reason for it...me I just liked getting high on whatever, and had access to dope from family and friends at low prices(they dealt and so did I after a while).
 
well if youve gone from sex addiction to heroin addiction, with depression inbetween, maybe you should go see a doctor or therapist or whatever.
 
Ya well you see that is what happens when you have unatural amounts of certain chemicals in your brain.
 
Swim always thought hed be a heroin addict. Longest habit was a year and a half straight no stopping. Swim didnt need food for days much less sex or intimacy. H was his world inside and out. Nothing else mattered.
Two years on Suboxone and his desire for sex skyrocketed. He couldnt blow more than once a day, but his desire was animalistic. He need to get that one nut each day, and then he was satisfied. For the first year of sub treatment, he was almost impotent, but would still call himself a sex addict.
An addict is always at risk for obsession and compulsion for something that feels good.
But i dare say if you can do H on weekends and then leave it alone, you might not be an addict. Im no professional however.
If all else fells, smoke crack and see if that helps, it drives SWIM up the sexual ladder. If anything can make you horny its cocaine, atleast for SWIM.
 
A few new guys every week?? Sounds like your dope year might be the best thing to ever happen to you.. haha, not but seriously you should just become a nun..

I have the same problem as you and I am a female.

I would suggest stopping opiates if possible at least for a while (a few months?) to see if it can be corrected that way. You might just thank yourself for this in the future whether it prevents a further addiction or just wakes up your sex drive.

I have been opiates Heroin, Methadone, and now Suboxone. Right now my Suboxone dose (8mgs) isn't holding me very well. I haven't had a sex drive since I started on Methadone about four years ago. Before that I had sex all the time and enjoyed it when I wasn't sick and desperate. I am engaged now and feel so bad because I hardly ever have sex with my fiancee. I am just totally uninterested, can't become interested, don't want to even be touched and trust me I feel so bad about it but I just can't help it. sometimes I tell myself I am just going to suck it up and do it but IT IS NOT THAT EASY.

I wish you luck in this I really do. Maybe when I am more stable on my Suboxone it will change, or maybe when I get off Suboxone in a couple months things will change for me. Either way I will be sure to let you know!<3

Wow yeah that sucks... thats exactly how i feel. i don't even want to be touched...
When ive gone out (which i also stopped doing considering before i was out every single night) i brought 2 guys back home on 2 different occasions.
I flirted with them and got them hard and horny and i stripped for them and basically once we where naked on the couch i just told him to leave. I was trying real hard to get into it but i just couldn't. And it would be such a waste to have sex with someone just because we are half way there...

But i am single so its a problem i can still work on. For you as you are engaged i would advice tapering off suboxone and trying to do it as fast as you can. Suboxone have killed my sex drive before as well. And trust me, if you dont satisfy them THEY WILL FIND THE SATISFACTION SOMEWHERE ELSE

No matter how much he loves you, man have needs. I hope you work it out with your guy. Just keep giving him blowjobs for now while u r getting of subs, become the best at it and he wont want anything else in life hehe thats what i did with my ex...

Im confused. Are you saying that Subs helped get the sex drive back or what?

Whatever you wrote was NOT english ha
 
This thread is getting a bit off-topic so I'm going to go ahead and close it.

Bottom line, opioids interfere with libido and if you're having trouble in that area, getting off of them is definitely the first step to addressing that.
