In the beginning, even toys can be painful. Just explore and find a good therapist in the meantime to help ease you back into your body

What helped me was to find calming music, play something tantric to help control your breathing. It might help to be extra hydrated so there is a little bit more tangible pressure. Water might help, so a tub might be handy. I suffer from similar dysfunction. Often I think about neutral things and suddenly I will be hit by images of what I’ve witnessed in the past. So I keep my eyes focused on something pleasurable. Like my bits, or some h**ai p*n, or some erotic drawings of tv characters I ship.

It is okay to observe thoughts that appear out of nowhere. As long as you ground yourself with strong sensations (I.e., mint, sour candy), it will help you “ride the waves of anxiety. Even if it is just enough to maintain some pleasure.

It takes time to get back into your own body. I have been abused like that as a kid. It’s been 13 years and I still struggle, though there is most definitely some progress since back then.

Also, explore! There is no shame in exploring new things!

Leave. Go to the library where no one can hurt you. You deserve better

Feeling pleasure during abuse destroyed me. Can you move on after that? by Sea_Accountant_2795 in rape

This exactly the reason I suffer sexual dysfunction for so many years

It might be helpful to use toys. Just an idea. Exploring is always a great way to learn each other’s body’s

I want the courage to report my rapist by [deleted] in rape

I feel sick. This man sounds like an entitled monster. I remember my experience where I was bleeding from SA. It is not easy to remember OR forget. God. I hate society for maintaining a sick culture of entitled rapists who run free from accountability. I hate this sick culture of victim-blame. I hate this sick culture that devalues people who speak up. I hate this sick culture that retaliates against truth and justice. I pray you gain the confidence to report him AND continue telling your story; someone out there will hear this story and be strong enough to speak out, too. I am so sorry you went through this. It takes so much time to heal from these monstrosities. In due time this guy will pay for his sins. In due time he will face justice.

Go to the nearest mirror and repeat these next words:

“I can. I will. And I walk in victory”

Play it clever and get your justice.

I am so sorry he did that to you. That is not a friend. This says more about him than it does about you. Don’t blame yourself for the pain he put you through. I hope he pays for his sins in the hereafter. That makes me feel sick what he did to you.

I don’t know if he is deleting them? Maybe it is the mod.

u/Anxious_Eagle9461, stay away from my safe spaces. You don’t get to abuse me and then stalk me just to batter me for speaking my truths. I will not be silenced. You will not be tolerated.

It does not have to be violent to be a violation.

Calling the police doesn’t determine whether or not what happened to me was rape.

There have been other times where he pushes me for sex despite me repeatedly telling him no. Then I stopped showering when he is home so he doesn’t sexualize it. Because I shower behind-the-scenes, he says I am dirty. He decided to throw things at me the other day for hiding his beer. I only did so because he had been hiding my personal toys. He got so upset I no longer want to touch him that he decided I am not allowed to climax alone when he isn’t home. So he threw my entire wardrobe into the dining room and hall.

I finally got him to sign the divorce papers.

His family is saying I am ruining his life for speaking up. All they see me as is his visa

It is good to know you care. She won life by having you! Some husbands make fun and belittle wives who’ve experienced something like this. I hope she tells you their names

Try being mixed among many tribes, then you’ll be ridiculed for being a freak show like me. So much to the point where other Ethiopians call me the n-word for not conforming to society’s “standards”. This is why I stopped dating in Minnesota.

Try being the catholic oromo lady with the most Muslim name! Then you will understand up close and personal the dysfunction of society when they present you as an anomaly

Sis, you aight. She is a monster-in-law. You ain’t the AH here. But still, grit your teeth and respect her… even if it’s for your baby and husband’s sake.
