I love my husband. I can't have sex with my husband but I do want to relearn how. We can't get through this on our own. He has a high libido and is increasingly unsatisfied as I am increasingly unable to provide him relief. I lived abused and neglected u ntill i was fifteen then spent most of...

I am on the waiting list for therapy, the mental health side of the nhs is massively underfunded here but I do have contact with a triage nurse who can see me if I get suicidal till then I just have to be patient (or not yet). Soz I use humour as a coping mechanism. My hubby and me would both...

I only found the courage to tell someone about the abuse I suffered growing up when my daughter was placed by social services with the two people who arranged for me to be tortured in the first place. My son was poorly so I was staying with him and i had no one else. So I found the bravery to...

Flashbacks are horrible mate, I tend to get them at dangerous times like if a strange guy is close or trying to talk to me then it's New terror cos of wtf can happen when your out of it. I think its awesome you''ve got goals and you sound like you're the kind of person who's gonna achieve shit...

I suffer massively from sexual shut down and it is so destructive for my marriage. I smoke weed regularly and recently hasn't been helping or making things worse I'm just numb. My husband is struggling with this and I feel so guilty for not being able to satisfy him although he does try very...

Love is being able to give up selfish crap however much you enjoyed that crap because that person or being is more important to you than your own selfish desires. Sex is f*ck all to do with love it is about desire and if one party doesn't have that desire and it is forced upon them by the other...

What do you want to do with your life? So f*cking easy to ask I know but likely to be impossible to answer. Fair play if quitting weed if that helps u figure shit out and take action or just function better daily. I smoke weed everyday and do feel like a sloth when I don't feel like an over...

Relapse days with white and vodka rear their ugly head through various triggers but for me are getting fewer and further between and with that comes a lower tolerance to said substances and there for lesser consumption on relapse days as you have experienced too. That my friend is what I call...

I can go ridiculous lengths of time without eating, I think partly due to lack of food growing up (I'm 26 I didn't grow up in a famine or ought just wasn't given access to food) but lately I've started panic binging in the night just before I try to go to sleep as if I'm going to never get hold...

Sounds shit, talk about it to trusted friends, g.p., on here, to a pet or whoever but just please don't bury it as it''ll only scream louder to get out.

I used to think everyone in the world was out to just take what they could get. I started projecting my feelings towards my abusers onto the rest of the world. Having also been abused by multiple people I get how easy this is to do. Dont give up now you have survived the worst life can throw at...

I think my eating patterns are so f*cked up because my sleep patterns are. I never eat anything untill about 7pm and then eat the world u ntill 10pm. I think this is partially due to never having any adult food at home through fear of going shopping and only remembering kids food when I'm out...

I'm sending you hugs but I don't feel equipped to offer much advice as I have only been married a year and its been blood sweat and tears but also complete love contentment and euphoria. Do you still have any of the latter? dibs up for 17 years regardless. I understand the lack of support...

I get this too total guess but I think as we are reliving the memory we know what's going to happen next and are able to anticipate enough to verbally protest against it happening again. When it actually happened to us we didn't know exactly what was going to happen on a step by step basis only...

I'm super happy that gives u hope. It took me seven years of bringing my kids up on my own not trusting any adults full stop before I met Ron. During that time I slept around a confusing amount despite it being physically pain full and causing massive flashbacks, I still don't fully understand...

This reply is the first time I have ever posted on a forum so I'm really nervous about saying the wrong thing. I was sexually abused from the age of five to fifteen after which I was homeless for eight years during which more similar shit happened due to the lifestyle I was living. I have two...
