From personal experience, "attracted romantically but not sexually" is very likely to be the depression. Merely getting hung up on girls in your thoughts counts as romantic at the age of 19 - or it did for me :P
And that's what depression is, just an endless cycle of unhelpful thoughts. True libido won't occur until you correct that. I wish you the best of luck with the anti-depressants and any other help you are getting. Please be patient with it, because it takes time.
I used to suspect I was asexual, but these days experience strong heterosexual thoughts, and occasionally even bisexual stuff. You'd be amazed how much this stuff changes after a little peace of mind.0 0 0 0oh by the way, exercise regularly!
Thank you for the message! Im not feeling so good right now so I can't really write a proper response. But I did read it and I appriciate it. And yeah I do try to train regularly :)
It seems less like you're asexual am more like you're suffering from anxiety, but the only person that can determine whether you're asexual or not, is you. Either way, I wouldn't rush to put a label on things; try to focus less on the destination and more on enjoying the ride, good luck, man! :)

If u get aroused by p*rn u aren't asexual. R u sure u didn't get molested or abused as a kid and u suppressed the memory but it made u afraid of some sex? Because I was molested as a little girl and it made me sick when I'd think about having sex with a guy or something like that

It's not asexuality you're suffering from; I have an asexual friend and they aren't turned off by sex... they just do not have a desire to have sex with or be with anyone.
It's likely just anxiety and insecurity that is causing your aversion.0 0 0 0Asexual people can be romanticaly attracted to people though. Just not sexually. I have been reading about it.
She never found herself romantically attracted, neither have I met other asexuals who were romantically attracted to anyone because they see no point - not saying there aren't asexuals who aren't that way, but I literally have never met an asexual who even wanted a relationship, and I know about four, and none of them are disgusted by the idea of sex either.
