Do You Miss Intimicy

[Rotim]

Do you miss being intimate with somebody

 

[Egut]

No. It's very stressful for me. And I somehow pick selfish people who just use me in the end.

 

[Ekava]

I don't seem to have a relationship with myself, so I am not sure.

 

[Maluca]

The more I talk about trauma in therapy, the less I want to be intimate because I have intrusive thoughts that bother me, a huge turnoff. Sigh. I do miss being more carefree and enjoying sex, sigh.

 

[Unolu]

Those intrusive thoughts can be difficult to deal with.

 

[Dagen]

Yes, I do. But I'm just to shut down to feel it at all most of the time.. I'm not ready to have sex or intimicy yet. I need to heal more first.. If I tried to have it now I would just dissociate and play-act, involuntary, and that would be like abusing my self. :( But yes, I miss it.

 

[Rogaha]

Yes. I'm ready, too.

 

[Uka]

Yes. My husband's and my relationship lacked it for many, many, years. Thankfully he was extremely respectful and understanding. We are starting to become more intimate since my flashbacks have started taking a back seat making it easier.
