After the death of my 15-year-old daughter a year ago, I have lost my sex drive – The Sun

DEAR DEIDRE: FOLLOWING the death of my 15-year-old daughter a year ago, I have lost my sex drive.

My wife and I were both heartbroken.

But now that we are past the first anniversary of that terrible time, I so want to get close to her again.

We do love one another and we both want to have sex again but I can’t usually get an erection.

If I do, I don’t last any time at all. This seems all wrong at the age of 44. My wife is only 42. There must be something I can do to regain the ability to have sex.

For now, just focus on ways you and your wife can share sexual pleasure and satisfaction without having the intercourse.
