Topic Tuesday // 16 Feb, 7pm AEDT // When mental illness impacts intimacy

[Former-Member]

The sex-on-demand to try for children can be pretty punishing.  It sounds like there are lots of interwoven threads there @BlueBay.  But nothing that can't be addressed.  I would have hoped that your sex therapist did everything possible to make it comfortable for you to open up.  But perhaps they didn't hit on quite the right approach..

Start with the hormone test and then consider another stab at therapy to address some of the other issues.  It's all about the right therapist.  You may not have hit upon that person yet. 

Good luck @BlueBay.  Tonight is truly a step in the right direction.  And the Forums are here for you anytime.

Thanks so much to everyone who joined in tonight.  And to those who simply read along.  I hope there was something useful in there.  Even just the validation that you are indeed 'not alone'. 

And don't forget that the Forums are here for you anytime if you wish to keep the conversation going. 

Take care
