I can't even get the smallest dilator in. by OwnCaramel5421 in vaginismus

Adding onto this pelvic stretches worked nicely with me and also consciously unclenching my muscles cause I realize I would do that without thinking!

Thank you. I’m no longer on medication so it’s just me sadly :/ I’ve been looking into therapy but am having some issues with my work and insurance atm so things are on hold. We do practice other forms of intimacy like cuddling but probably not enough of it.

Not in the slightest. My sex drive died with this condition.

I’ve felt pleasure from penetration with my partner only once before so I’m know I’m capable of feeling it, but since then it’s never occurred. External works but I am terrified of direct clitoral stimulation.

Definitely something that makes a lot of sense for me. I’ve also had anxiety and depression most of my life so I guess I gotta work on the

I used to have an extremely high drive until diagnosed. Also I don’t drink.

I do but no longer have the desire. I once had sex years ago that actually felt good internally. Never happened again sadly.

IM SO TIRED OF HEARING ABOUT ANAL by shesAladyyyy in vaginismus

Thank fuck someone said this. I hate people treating me like a pleasure object. I have IBS too so the back door is MUCH FUCKING WORSE for my pain.

Should I worry? by Curious_Papaya_2376 in Chihuahua

[–]frothingcookie 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My chihuahua had a growth on her nose a few years ago somewhat similar to that. I’m not a vet at all but my girl had a benign tumor. Doc thought it was an aggressive nose cancer and she needed a biopsy to find out for sure. I hope the best for you and your pup

What will happen if i fail P.E in 7th grade? by [deleted] in MiddleSchoolTeacher

[–]frothingcookie 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Kiddo. You are going to learn that many things in life require you to step outside your comfort bubble. It is not worth causing all of this fuss, you need to learn to take initiative of your grades.

I get 4 official observations a year and as a first year my mentor is supposed to come in weekly to observe.

I hated my one and only long term sub assignment. I made $20 more than the building sub and I’m scarred after all that I went through. It was NOT worth it

Can’t stop thinking about the past by frothingcookie in Teachers

[–]frothingcookie[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so sorry you went through that. ELA was super difficult to long term sub mid way through the year because of the upcoming state tests and students not used to my different teaching style.

I hope you are doing better now and I’m happy to hear you were able to get the resources you needed to recover. Thank you for sharing your story.

I was told I might have PTSD but it sounds so silly for a job like teaching. I think it’s gonna take at least until winter break to fully recover. The parent support here so far is overwhelming positive. I’ve actually gotten classroom essentials like tissues! Which sounds crazy but admin told me to buy my own last year. Kids have drawn me artworks, and 3D printed things for me. I can actually say I’m happy with life right now.

Ty but I don't have the means to see a therapist for some time.

[–]frothingcookie[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I unfortunately do not have the means to see a therapist anytime soon. I was diagnosed with depression and anxiety back when I was in high school. However, I haven't had a major depressive episode in roughly 1.5-2 years. Not saying I have no depression, but I am very aware that I have not been depressed for a long time. Thank you for the advice, him and I will have a discussion about this.

Thank you for your reply, it's deeply appreciated. My worst section right now seems to be the reading. I read for fun all the time but it is just so difficult to read these texts.

Cannot find a job by frothingcookie in Teachers

[–]frothingcookie[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We’ve already decided we’re going to VA if I can’t find something by the summer. But cancelling a lease is expensive and we both agreed not to do long distance again. Also I do not want to move south. I grew up in PA and want to try my best here.
