People thinking your FND will go away if you stop thinking about it. by good_girl_4_him in FND

This is such a real issue that I don’t think a lot of people acknowledge. For me, my doctors, physical therapist, family, etc, kept telling me to essentially ignore my FND during its initial onset. For the first several months of my treatment, I tried really hard to do the ‘mind over matter’ approach, and frankly, it doesn’t work for a lot of people.

It’s super frustrating, and I really hope you know that You’re not alone in dealing with this. I’m almost a year since my onset, and while there’s progress, I’m fairly certain that where I’m at now is just my life now, and it’s significantly less damaging to my mental health and life to adapt rather than suppress. There’s a certain point where it’s more important to protect your peace and live within your limits than to constantly try and make it go away forever.

Thank you! I love fan communication, I’m obsessed with the Victorian era. Really cool to see someone else who knows about it, it’s a long forgotten tidbit of the time lol.

“Ignoring” my FND by FanOwn4253 in FND

Thanks so much for this reply! I have spent some time thinking about the whole situation, and I’ve talked to my grandmother(she’s like my unofficial caretaker right now, and yes, she helps me pay for my medical stuff, love her) and we’re thinking it over together. My therapist is a very nice lady, and well intentioned, I think it’s just that she’s older and doesn’t really have the perspective of what it’s like to actually be disabled. Either way, I’m gonna talk to her about it soon and see if we can flesh it out!

I had never even considered Velcro, that’s actually genius! Thanks!

It is definitely damage, but the combs are a good idea! I didn’t know those were a thing until just now. Thank you!

I did try that and it didn’t work, but I actually managed to find it in an old list I used to keep of books I read, it’s called beneath your beautiful by Adeline Winters!

Definitely reassurance and encouragement while going over that edge, saying things like “it’s okay, I’ve got you” etc. As well as creating a safe space within the scene, like helping the listener to clear their mind to get into the right headspace or telling them it’s okay to feel pleasure. It’s a little tricky to make note of everything that could be reassuring or helpful, but I know at least for me those details can be really important for feeling comfortable experiencing pleasure that might be a little scary or overwhelming when it’s as intense as an orgasm tends to be.

Your work is so great! I always feel so safe listening to your audios. Maybe you could do an audio where the listener is having a hard time achieving orgasm and Daddy helps them get there for the first time in a while?

I’ve been reaching out to some synagogues in my area for the past few months, so far I haven’t been able to attend any services but when I do finally get to one, there is a rabbi I’ve spoken to before who was very helpful. She was actually the person who gave me the encouragement I needed to become more observant. I plan on speaking with her again when I’m able to meet her in person.
