I assume he's taking one of the SSRI class of antidepressant, Zoloft, Prozac, Celexa and, Paxil being the most common ones of this type. Low sex drive is a common side effect because of the way they work. There are other antidepressants that don't have that side effect, and even if he has to take one of those, there are ways to deal with it and not ruin your sex life.
His doctor should either change his meds, or have his testosterone levels checked and, either perscribe a medication such as Levitra or Viaga, or put him on a drug holiday schedule to allow his sex drive to return for at least a day or two each week. Either way, his doctor should be able to correct or at least give you a viable work around.
Treating PTSD, shouldn't cause more stress and frustration, the idea is to alleviate stress and, work on the underlying issues.
I applaud you for standing by him and helping him get through this. I think you two will be fine, just have him talk to his doctor and, find a solution
