Yes I have this too, but it is associated with feeling protected and I don’t like it either because it can happen at strange times, like talking with my boss or even just watching something happen to other people, if one is protecting the other.
My dad was the abuser, mostly emotional and physical and a little bit sexual, but he also sexualized me all my life so I think that’s where that comes from. I just wrote about this sensation in my journal two days ago, acknowledging it for the first time, and here is a whole thread on it!
My self harm is so regular and low level that I can’t usually tell what triggers it, but now I don’t feel ashamed of this feeling in my vagina anymore because I understand why. I realized that my vagina can help me recognize my feelings too. It’s strange, but I don’t have to feel ashamed or try to stop it.
Thank you for starting this very validating and helpful thread!
