...See more My partner and I have been together for a couple of months now and in the beginning, the sex was great I was confident and it was better but as time has gone by my mental health has gotten worse and I've been having flashbacks and self-esteem issues from my past relationship where I suffered from sexual and domestic abuse. I never let it get to me in the beginning of my relationship I guess because everything was new and exciting and it preoccupied all of my thoughts. But now sometimes that's all that fills my head and I've been so depressed lately it's hard to do anything but lay in bed. I feel extremely guilty for not being as sexually active with my partner as I used to be because he wants to and he always asks and I feel like such a buzz kill. Ive tried to talk about it but for some reason the words, the explanation always gets stuck in my thought and all I end up saying is its just because of what happened. He doesn't pry for me to go into more detail and sometimes I wish that he would.
