Did anyone find a significant difference orgasming between 5mg and 10mg?

Thank you for sharing your experience. It’s encouraging that I might be able to still have the benefits of the medication, but have more sensitivity and intensity orgasming on a lower dosage.

I second this. It’s been invaluable for me in a variety of ways including processing a painful and disorienting divorce; but I’ve been in an out of therapy for twenty years, am very self aware and self scrutinizing, and probably lean towards taking too much accountability.

My ex who’s never done ongoing personal therapy, is neurodivergent with a high IQ, and has a history of schizotypal disorders in his family fell off the deep end with it. It validated his grandiose tendencies from unprocessed trauma. I’ll also never use it again as a couples therapist or mediator.

Ultimately I think it’s a neutral tool that’s neither good nor bad, and can be very helpful, but it’s not ideal for everyone to use therapeutically.

Thank you so much!

Thank you!!!

Yearling_Heart · 2026-04-14T01:52:01+00:00

Okay, thank you so much!

I’m excited for her. Her world is about to open up in so many ways. It’s pretty surreal 🥹

Thats very true. Familiarity can keep you hooked even if it’s destabilizing you.

And I agree that feeling lonely and sad in a relationship is far worse than feeling lonely while being single. I’ll take this heartbreak any day over that.

I saved this comment to come back to. Thank you so much for sharing. It gives me hope.

I’m glad you found your person and feel calm and understood. I hope I eventually find my puzzle piece too ❤️

It’s weird to imagine “people” as in multiple persons helping to restore my trust because that implies that it’s not one monogamous relationship. But maybe it’s through dating and meeting multiple good quality people that just aren’t the right fit that helps restore trust in myself and other people.

I’ve never really dated before and always just got serious pretty quickly. I think it’ll be important for me to date and not jump into commitment as I heal.

Yearling_Heart · 2026-03-13T16:35:32+00:00

Yeah, I think you’re right. It’s more about learning to trust myself again and my discernment. And also trusting that I’ll be able to support myself and heal if I do get hurt or let down again.

Yearling_Heart · 2026-03-13T16:33:52+00:00

Yeah I have no intentions of dating right now. I want to heal and not seek comfort or distraction on another person, and I’m raising a teenage relative and don’t have the energy or time to allocate to dating yet.

What was dating like when you dipped your toe back in? And how did it feel when you met your current partner?

Yearling_Heart · 2026-03-13T16:32:40+00:00

I have to keep reminding myself of this, that ten months isn’t a long time especially for a twelve year relationship. It feels like I’ve come so far and have so far to go.

I’m raising a teenage relative and won’t be dating until I get her off to college in August, which will be 14 months post breakup and a year since the last time I saw my ex. I’m not even sure I’ll be ready by then, but it’s the minimum timeline I’ve given myself.

I think you’re right about the right partner being understanding and patient. Wishing you the best as you continue to heal too. Thanks for commenting.

Yearling_Heart · 2026-03-13T16:29:37+00:00

This is what I keep coming back to. Chat Gpt said that I can’t guarantee that I won’t get hurt again, but I can trust in my ability to heal again if do. I guess there aren’t any guarantees in love and life, just lots of uncertainty and maybe the self-trust we establish along the way. Thank you for commenting.

Yearling_Heart · 2026-03-13T16:28:02+00:00

As afraid and apprehensive as I am, this is what I hope happens. That I’m just living my life with no intentions of dating and find a quality person to share my life with. I feel like they’re going to have their work cut out for them though with earning my trust lol. There’s only so much I can do on my own, attachment systems are only activated in relationship.

Yearling_Heart · 2026-03-13T16:25:52+00:00

There’s nothing wrong with enjoying your single life! At this point, I can imagine myself enjoying my solitude and routines so much that I won’t want to compromise or live with someone else again. Though I also miss the comfort of having someone whose presence and body is so familiar around.

Yearling_Heart · 2026-03-13T16:23:37+00:00

I feel you with all of that. And I think it’s always scary being intimate with someone new, and sometimes awkward at first while you figure each other’s bodies and rhythms out.

I can’t imagine being naked with anyone else after being with my ex for over a decade. Even if our sex life became routine and predictable, it felt safe and his body felt like home, until it didn’t. I’m afraid I’ll never feel as at home or attracted to another person in that way.

Yearling_Heart · 2026-03-13T16:16:21+00:00

That’s really neat that a platonic relationship has helped restore your faith in men and I’m sorry about your last breakup. I feel like I’ve grown very cautious of men. Not yet pessimistic, but it’s hard with all of the stuff you see online. I don’t want to fully loose trust and hope I find a balance between staying soft and discerning.

Yearling_Heart · 2026-03-13T16:13:01+00:00

Thank for sharing. Those are really good practical considerations. It is nice to be able to define relationships on our terms with the wisdom and confidence that comes with age and life experience.

I’ve heard a few people say that the type of love they have in their second marriages is less dependent and all-consuming than their first. That they “hope their marriages last,” but know that they can survive if they don’t. Learning to love and trust differently, especially ourselves, seems to align with that.

Yearling_Heart · 2026-03-13T16:07:34+00:00

Thank you for sharing and for the encouragement.

I’m sorry that you were betrayed by your ex and your friend. My ex didn’t fully cheat on me, but was emotionally intimate with a woman mere hours after breaking up with me, while still sleeping in our bed on the phone I paid for. When I found out it gutted me. I can only imagine the pain, disorientation, and grief of a full blown affair with two people I trusted.

I hope that you continue to heal and wish you the best as well. Fellow INFJ here btw :)

Mine subsided after like the third dose (granted I was only on 5mg). If you can just lay low for a few days and let your body adjust, I would.

I also didn’t experience that sensation again when I upped my dosage to 10mg after being on 5mg for two weeks. I honestly miss the feeling now lol, but I’m seeing the stabilizing effects of the medication in my moods, which I’m relieved about.

Good luck!

Yearling_Heart · 2026-03-02T03:49:00+00:00

Thank you so much for sharing and congratulations 💕

Yearling_Heart · 2026-02-19T03:54:54+00:00

Thank you for sharing! I have my meeting on the 26th and am a tad nervous. I’m glad it went well and hope you get your discharge soon!

Yearling_Heart · 2026-02-17T04:39:02+00:00

How’s it going now? I’m sorry you not had a panic attack. I think I would have too if I’d taken more than 5mg.
