Hi Pansy,
I am sorry to hear about your wife's health issues. Really. I hope things improve.
I expect that stress from that could easily play a role in reducing the desire to dress. Although for some I think a chance to dress actually reduces stress, for those who have had the opportunity to do so a lot, I don't think that is as much the same function, but rather a chance to just experience or get closer, perhaps, to something else...not sure exactly how to define that...probably a little different for each of us. Still, in times of ...stress is not the right word... I am thinking more of a weariness that comes from emotional toil, such as the illness of a loved one...I know dressing and many aspects of this odd dysphoria can fade into insignificance. Add to that the stabilizing mental affects of PM, as well as the fact that many of us normally go through periods where our interest comes and goes anyway, and, well.... your current lack of interest seems quite normal to me.
Regardless....all the best, honey. My heart goes out to you.
Hugs
