No libido.

For some reason, ever since I've increased my psychedelic use the past month, I've almost lost the desire to have sex. It's like I just don't care for it anymore. I'm still very happy and content with life but just don't care about sex (which is frustrating for a certain someone).
Is this normal? This happen to anyone else?

Sexual energy can be channeled in a variety of ways, not strictly and solely the traditional one. Sometimes spiritual practitioners strive to use it in more productive ways. It's normal. If you feel uncertainty towards the situation, inspect why you're using the energy differently now than before...the answers are always available.

Additionally perhaps you've in someway altered your view of how you feel about sexual activity. Dunno anything about your old views, but compare them to your lack of drive, and how you evolved your current views. Is it an issue of getting it up so to speak? Or an issue of wanting to get it up (so to speak of course )? Might be better grounds for analyzing the issue at hand.

Hrmmm, well... It was exciting in the past in one form oor another, why you choose to do the deed to begin with. Try to remember what was lost. If you care about your girl, let her know and show it .

more seafood. (iodine) Exercise and Vitimin C (adrenal hormones)
These DO work, unoquivocally. But the first is more important.
Zinc is why oysters are said to work, however I haven't researched this...
Stimulants will also work, however drugs like pseudoephedrine and caffeine aren't very good because the hormones they produce (mainly) have short half-lives.

I've thought about herbs but doubt their effectiveness. I think I'm just going to stop tripping so much.

My libido has gone down quite a bit too, but I don't have a special someone in my life, so all it's doing for me now is saving tissue.

IMO you don't want a sex drive that's demanding unless you are married. With that in mind, if you are a man and would like to increase libido purchase some organic Damiana Leaf from www.mountainroseherbs.com . Make a tea or tincture and start small. You may be shocked at the results. You may need to add another herb or two depending on your 'type.'
Yohimbe is another but very, very bitter. Chocolate is actually an aphrodisiac for both men and women but you should never use it on a daily basis and only use it in conservative portions. Excercise will get the testosterone going. Lay off the pron.

I may not have a special someone any longer if I don't get my act together. Tongue and fingers just aren't the same.

It sounds like your secks drive got booted out the door because of your psychadelics, whether it's the drug itself or how it changed your perception. I don't know what's wrong with me, but I have no secks drive either. I would attest that it's semi-permanent damage from SSRIs in my case.
I'd start out by becoming a healthier person, regardless of whether you trip. Make sure you get your vitamins, eat/take healthy fats, get good calorie intake, and exercising has put you on the right track. The time I'm the horniest is after/during while I work out.

And if you still need a boost, you'll find a multitude of herbs that help your drive.
Horny Goat Weed- Popular chinese herb that got its name because it was discovered from goats eating it and having promiscuous behaviour. Yohimbe- Herb in chinese medication. Unfortunately it's an MAOI and should not be taken by those with high blood pressure. It also means that you cannot eat chocolate, sausage, aged cheeses, wines, and other things containing trymamines (sp). Maca Root- aka Peruvian Maca, Peruvian Gensing. It's an ancient, royal food that increases sexual vitality. Deer Antler Velvet is another one that isn't really an herb. Ginkgo Biloba- Increases blood flow to brain and extremities.

Yes, at times I feel glad that I don't have a girlfriend to disapoint with my lack of libido.
Unfortunately, I also have thoughts that it might be vital to my sexual health to have something to stimulate it. Use it or lose? %@!(*, I hope not.
