Sexual functionality is still possible for me, but it has declined significantly since I started NBE. The same applies for my sex drive. I would describe me sex drive as being in a hibernating/docile state.

No, I don't go crazy having a non-existent sex-drive. On the contrary, I find it very nice not being preoccupied with porn and masturbation. I feel like I have a lot more self-control now. I don't have to deal anymore with involuntary or morning erections. It's like having one less distraction in my life.

I'm single so I don't have to deal with this. I don't want to have kids. When I do get into a relationship I prefer having a girlfriend who is more into cuddling than sex.

For me, yes. It really depends on the person though. If you're like the average male who loves having sex and would like your significant other to have a higher sex drive, pm can have the exact opposite effect on you. Instead of feeling calm, you may feel anxious, frustrated, even depressed as pm reduces your sex drive and functionality.

Half my stress is wanting and not getting.
Here's a hypothetical question for you. What would be a more preferable scenario for you: your sex drive declines to the level that matches your wife's sex drive, or her sex drive goes up to the level your sex drive is currently at? In other words, do you wish you could have sex with your wife more often, or would you rather be happy with having sex only as often as your wife wants it? Even though pm may lower your sex drive, that doesn't necessarily mean you'll be happy with having a weaker sex drive.
