Try the herb "Eurycoma longifolia Jack", otherwise known as Eurycoma or Tongkat ali. It has been widely used in Malaysia and surrounding countries for a very long time as as aphrodisiac and for sexual dysfunction. Only recently has it become popular in the US. (Below are some links to research studioes on it's effects). Because it also increases Testosterone, it is available in many body-building supplements. You can easily find more about it and the available products on the internet with a Google search.
Low testosterone may be part of your problem. There were some studies done several years ago showing that SSRI's and SNRI's lower testosterone levels.
