Is it normal i am bisexual because i am greatly uninterested in sex?

Good stories always start with a tragic past, So... I am a 25 year old guy now, but I have been fighting with depression since my childhood. Right now I am pretty much "cured", but one of the side effects of depression still remains: I am almost completely uninterested in sex.

When I grew up, all of my friends awakened their sexuality in an explosive manner. Yet, since I was quite depressed at this delicate developing phase, I never had this "awakening".

I was always uninterested in sex. I never felt this need for intimacy that everyone else seemed to have. I tried to be in a relationship a few times... but the lack of passion was always a problem. Many people, and even my girlfriends, suggested that I was gay. And for a time, I truly believed in that, because it seemed to be the only logical explanation.

So, with great antipathy I gave homosexuality a chance. It was the same. Lack of passion and sexual dissatisfaction.

The thing is that right now, I remain uninterested in sex... and I am so indifferent towards it, that I don't even care if it is with a guy or a girl. It is all the same to me.

I know the bisexual stereotype is the exact opposite of this... So I just wanted to know, is this normal?

Is It Normal?

  • That sympton is due to your depression, not your sexuality.

  • Maybe you are demisexual or asexual and bi-romantic?

  • I think most people have said this already, but I do not believe you are bisexual if you have no interest in such things. You are most likely asexual, but if this is just a natural development or a result of the depression I cannot say. I do hope things get better for you.

  • Does sound like asexuality although, know first hand that being depressed can really effect arousal, and if they put you on an anti depression medication, that usually hinds arousal even more. I wouldn't mind explaining it to you and or chatting about it, if you'd like, my Kik username is bitsandspurs

  • You can be asexual, which I imagine is so much easier.

  • I was just wondering if you are taking any medication for your depression. I myself was on meds for depression & it had a strange effect on my interest in sex and left me to question my sexuality. The dosage was lowered and I started getting seriously horny again and definitely for women.

  • You sound asexual and it seems that your depression has greatly deduced your sex drive.

  • I too have had a lot of trouble with depression, but it sure did not effect my sexual desires or drive. Now that I am old and impotent, I could almost wish I would lose my interest in sex. Life is a bitch, man!
