Does High Blood Pressure, Obesity Cause Trouble With Low Libido?

Hi I am a 19 year old male who weighs 260 lbs and is 6 foot 2. I am having trouble with low libido, sex drive, which is unusual for my age. I am attracted to woman visually but I do not get excited. I believe it may be psychological because I used go get aroused easily, now even with physical contact I don't usually, but I find that if I'm in a "good mood" I can sometimes. I always enjoy what I see/feel but the actual excitement does not occur. Medical history: Aspergers syndrome, obesity, and now high blood pressure.
