I used to have a really high libido, getting off atleast daily, but I’ve gone through a pretty emotionally damaging breakup in the last year and its sorta ruined my performance and libido. Idk what it is but my drive to have sex is barely there anymore. I think the depression from the breakup may have played a big part in my lack of sexual energy but I feel like its been going on for a bit too long and I’m starting to get concerned. Is this normal? Should I see someone about it?

Lack of interest in sex (and fun in general) is a significant sign of chronic depression.
Talk to a professional. It’s not your fault. You did nothing wrong. Break-ups hapoen. Your brain simply isn’t moving on well. Get help. What you describe is not normal.
I can recommend a podcast, or five, to help you recognize the disorder. Try listening to Depresh Mode (formerly The Hilarious World of Depression.) It’s funny and has real insight. (I have Zero connection to it other than recognizing the stories of others that go through what I do. It helps.)
In reality, you likely need therapy and meds to manage real depression. It happens. Think of it like diabetes of your brain. You’d see a doctor for diabetes, right?
Help is available. It works. You don’t need to suffer. There is zero value in suffering.
Good luck.
