Healing feelings of shame and guilt around sex?
Relationship Stress / by dynamicHemlock1736

...See more hi all. over the past few months, a topic that has been very reoccuring to me was feeling guilt regarding sex and pleasure when i am with a partner, especially if they are more of a "giver". Everytime after it was my turn, i feel so incredibly selfish and guilty for my experience. i have some theories of where it comes from (probably traumatic previous sexual encounters) but i really want to work on it and am ready to put in the work to heal this. Has anyone of you experienced these feelings and has some tips? Id really appreciate that

...See more hey all. i hope its okay that i am taking this space here. ive been experiencing a somewhat constant feeling of anxiety over the past 4 months and it is getting really difficult to deal with. its like i have a somehow anxious feeling all the time and then if any small things occur or dont go as planned my emotions completely explode and i get panic. but i just feel so much tension in my chest and stomach all the time, my dreams are so stressful and i wake up being alarmed for no reason. i dont really get whats happening to me or what to do. i eat very healthy, i practice mindfulness and it helps in the moment but not on the long term. does anyone have any tips on this? i would really appreciate it :) thank you for reading if you have made it this far!

...See more hi everyone. because of some sudden life changes that happened end of 2021, ive been in some sort of nearly constant slump. the next big thing happening in life is university, but that will start in 5 months away from now. i can not seem to get myself up because i do not feel like right now, in this moment, i dont have much to look forward to. where i live right now, i dont have any friend to make plans with and i know i shouldnt depend my plans on those around me but i really am tired of being by myself. i meditate, i do yoga, but i just cant seem to find any inspiration. its like everyday is repeating itself over and over again. does anyone have any tips to share on how to get out of this, even if its just something small? thank you for reading until this point ❤️

...See more Hello dear community. Ive been on 7cups for quite some time and just went through all my old threads and wow. It really struck me how things have changed. As a short warning, I will mention SH but without any details. I believe 6 years ago was when I had my first SH experience and, like it happens often, went downhill from then with me getting into this spiral of this vicious cycle. This time and the two years after that were the lowest points ive experienced in my life ever. I actually did not expect to stay even until my 16th birthday. Here I am. I am turning 20 this year. I am the happiest, healthiest I have ever been. The topic SH rarely crosses my mind, and ive been clean for more than 4 years. Ive had my first healthy relationships. Genuine connections. I have learned to respect my body and honour it. From failing all my classes, I ended up being one of the top 10% in my school. I am so beyond grateful that I did not give up back then because the most amazing experiences were on their way to me. I am sharing this because I remember how genuinely hopeless I felt back then. I genuinely did not believe I could have this life. But it is here. And of course, life still throws obstacles at me and sometimes I feel like I cant manage. It is not like life in general suddenly gets easier. But I have created this safe space within me, where I can always feel home no matter what is happening in my life around me. To anyone reading this: I really do believe in you. And its time you do too.

...See more Hello all. I am 19 years old and am currently, for a few months, staying at my parents house. My mom has always had a rather "pessimistic" worldview and easily can find things in her life that do not work out. 7 years ago, one doctor told her she had depression, but she laughed it off. My mother is currently very unhappy. Her and my dad moved to this town because she wanted to take care of her own mother. Well, shortly after that, her mother died. My father soon got a job in this new town, hence, they're staying here and my mom hates it here. She keeps saying it was the worst decision to come here, but my father works here and can not leave. Most of the times she is frustrated during the day, doesn't sleep at night and whenever I say the word "help" she gets upset and tells me its not my problem. Its been like this for two years, but it gets worse with time. I dont really know what to do here. If any mothers, or adult children could tell me their opinion on this I would greatly appreciate that. Thank you very much for reading <3
My partner gave me an STD - my world is crashing down.

...See more Hello fellow people! Im coming on here because I really need someone to relate or at least listen to what is happening right now, if anyone is available. I would really appreciate that because my world is crashing down at the moment. Yesterday my partner got tested and has been tested positive for chlamydia. We‘re an LGBTQ couple, so two women, which means the risk of me having it is very small. However, I am still entitled to medication and will take it. Before she met me, she slept around with many guys and girls without protection. I didn’t know she had unsafe sex, I just knew she had a lot of experience. Turns out, she catched the STD from a fellow guy in the past. I know that she could not know that she had the STD, however, I got tested before our relationship and actually had hoped she would be responsible enough to think about her potential risk, which she didn’t. Now I have to take the medication, and the issue here is, is that it’s very bad for people with stomach issues. I have a chronic illness, which means it’s putting my health at a severe risk. I know I’m in no place to be mad at her and that it is partly my fault for being in a sexual relationship with her, however, this is affecting the way I feel about her severely. I feel like my trust has been broken. Has anyone else experienced this or any thoughts to share? I would appreciate any words. Thanks for reading and have a great day <3
