I could care less...

Ever since I had a miscarriage a few months ago, I have lost all interest in sex. I don't want my husband to touch me or kiss me. I am extremely depressed. I have no idea what to do. I feel sorry for my husband but not enough to try.

Re: I could care less...

  • I'm sorry for your loss.  I don't think this would be that uncommon given what you've been through. I think it's time to find a counselor.

  • You need to go to a specialist to discuss this issue.  If you don't get help with this it could cost you your marriage.
  • Everyone grieves differently and sometimes time is all it takes, but I will give the same suggestion as others, talk to a counselor and communicate your feelings with your husband.  
  • Sorry for your loss.

    See your doc, also. Your hormones may still be out of flux due to the pregnancy.

    If you are comfortable with going to a bereavement group, do --- look on line to see what's in your area. 

    And talking to your H will help, too.  Wishing you luck.
  • I am sorry for your loss. Everyone copes differently and that is okay. However, your rejection of physical affection (touching, holding, kissing) sounds like a symptom of something bigger. I would go to a support group or seek individual counseling. Grief can quickly turn to depression. Also, if they didn't check at your OB call and make sure your hormone levels are back to zero. 

    For the record the first time after a m/c is emotional. DH wanted to wait b/c he didn't want me to feel like I needed to, but for me it was an important step to heal.
