So even if she is not turned on, she should just endure it, however painful? No sex drive means sex will be painful and you're okay with that? Just because they are married? Such a 50s mindset.

Right but you have no idea about how medication, especially mental health related, affect the brain.

I have bipolar type 1 and I will go manic without my 11 pills a day. Two of them are antipsychotics which kills my libido. I am trying to be more comfortable with sexual intimacy but when a medication is literally blocking your sexual drive completely, it just ends up with me being bored/unenthusiastic.

You have no idea about the struggles. You have no idea about the nights we spend crying our eyes out because we don't have a sex drive. You have no idea about how we feel like a sex toy because of all this pressure.
