I wonder if maybe the antidepressants are contributing to the low lubrication. Even if you got your libido back up there could still be other sexual effects of them.
If your sex life right now is just you then it's the perfect time to experiment with lube! You don't have to worry about what anyone else thinks and if you don't like a particular one you can jump up and shower it off right away.
Change is always scary, especially when it's your body changing and it's out of your control! So fear is a pretty natural response. However, I think you can view this as an opportunity to explore activities/sensations you may not have been interested in before. Your body is changing but not all of them have to be negative. If you suddenly enjoy cuddling, then cuddle! No need to figure out why you suddenly want that. Perhaps you could look at this period of your life as one of experimentation and exploration, relearning what you enjoy and maybe adding in things you wouldn't have considered before.
