Does high stress/fatigue from work lower your libido at home...? |
|
Be honest. Or does it have the opposite effect...?

1. I'm a mixed bag. It's kind of hard to explain. |
|
Yes, stress typically lowers my libido. But it also makes me yearn for a stress reliever.

2. So do you seek out sex less often, or more? n/t |

Probably more. But it's weird. I don't do it because I'm more in the mood, more because I know that I'm sick from the stress, and I know it will make me feel better. Almost like medicine.

3. Stress, no. Fatigue, sometimes. |
|
But it is more likely that satisfying my libido will cause me to be fatigued at work!

I'm always seeing articles about how stress can kill sex drive--very sad! :)

My performance has been sub-par.

one reason I just quit my job and am taking another one at less pay :crazy: but the stress is the factor and wanting to yell and scream "f___ you all" or go postal were the more pressing reasons I left. :D

I find that my high libido at home can help me reduce stress from work.
That, and not giving a shit about my job anymore also helps...

17. No. Probably the opposite effect for me. |
|
Of course, that may change as I get older.
