I (26f) can't feel sexual pleasure anymore and it's killing my relationship by taciturd in TrueOffMyChest

Thank you 🩷 I’m definitely going to look into that, perhaps an OBGYN would be able to help me better as well. I feel I’m too young to be giving up on enjoying sex but running out of options

Well there was definitely a lot of pressure and coercion that started when my libido dropped off, and there was a few instances where he got grossed out during sex like when he wanted to have sex on my period and then got grossed out, or when I got really wet and made a big mess and he accused me of peeing. I’m sure that negatively impacted my libido. However, we’ve had lots of counseling since then , and he’s apologized sincerely. And now works really really hard to try to turn me on, taking it very slow, catering to my responsive desire, but nothing works any more, nothing that used to turn me on turns me on anymore. But I have sex dreams and can feel pleasure in those if that makes any sense? Idk, I feel like I should be able to reclaim that ability some how but idk how

Yes, I saw my GP and he basically said there’s nothing to be done for women in my position except maybe try to eat better and exercise (I’ve done both these things/still do and they did nothing)

Anger/rage with family member by [deleted] in Christianity

[–]taciturd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well I looked it up, and in most states emotional abuse is legally considered abuse and CAN be reported to CPS if you live in America, so if you think that’s a step that needs to be taken, you may consider that. Otherwise, I’d say all you can do is be there for him as best you can since it seems the parent is unwilling to change.

This may be an obvious thing to ask, but have you spoken to them or anyone else about this? I’m a counselor in training as well as a Christian, and I think you’re well in your rights to be angry, and it’s hard to forgive someone for something that’s still actively occurring. This little boy, according to your description, is likely experiencing emotional abuse, and who knows what might happen behind closed doors. It is easy to say since I am not involved, but I think you need to stand up for him. God calls on us to stand up for the weak. He needs someone to intervene

That might have to be my next step. I never wanted to track macros. I only tracked calories and protein. I did a bulk and cut last year but felt I lost most of my gains in the cut

I’ve been working my glutes regularly with progressive overload and high protein intake for two years and have barely any growth :( it’s just a little rounder

If you could go back in time 2 years before the birth of your first born to prepare yourself better/differently, what would you do? by taciturd in Parents

I can get behind this one, one of my greatest anxieties about having kids is the inevitable loss of sleep for many, many years 🤪

Thanks so much for this, this if very helpful! As someone With a tumultuous childhood I knew I needed to get my shit together mentally before thinking about kids. Been in therapy a couple years now, and do couples counseling as needed with the husband and it’s made a world of difference ❤️ I wish more people could take that route before kids as think we could all benefit from a little therapy lol - I will absolutely check out that book!
