What Causes A Low Sex Drive?

I am taking 12.5 mg of Atenolol daily for Atrial Tachycardia for which no cause can be found. Is it normal for this drug to make me feel like I have no energy or motivation to do anything but sit or sleep? It has decreased my sex drive considerably. Is there another drug for tachycardia that doesn't have such strong side effects?
