Strong Sexual urges during Intense Depression and Loneliness

[BornofDust]

Ok I've been suffering from emptiness and loneliness more intensely for the past few days. I understand the biologicals and psychological reasons for these things. What I don't understand is how during these times of more intense depression and loneliness then usual, my sexual urges are so hyper. Generally speaking I find this confusing cause usually in my day-to-day life when these feelings are not as intense, or even when I'm just feeling " normally.' I don't really care about sex that much at all. I don't get turned on by females body parts(although sometimes around others guys when there during I would sometimes pretend to along with them to not look weird.). I much prefer(usually) to save it for the one that I'll eventually love and I'm not really a fan of hook-up culture at all that much. I'm also generally not a hedonist and generally don't see constant pleasure seeking as fulfilling in the long-term.

Yet whenever I'm at my lowest I get these really strong sexual urges, like I just have to bang someone or something, I have to get some sort of release or something. I don't usually feel these urges at all up until I feel my absolute lowest. I honestly don't understand why? And even if I want to fulfill it, I'm not able to cause I'm simply not allowed to leave m house and currently don't have a car. Plus I've been trying NoFap for a while as part of my recovery(go ahead and ask why cause I know it seems strange )

Which is weird because isn't depression supposed to lower your sex drive.

Yeah so I don't understand why these things are happening with me tbh. I'm really confused. Hope some of you guys might have some answers.

The brain just combines the sexual need with the romantic/intimacy/social need and produces rocket fuel. I j/o and shit, nofap reduces my sleep quantity.
