Thank you, I wasn't sure I was doing the right thing so I'm glad setting a boundary was positive.

I do want to resolve the tension with my dad, while standing by my actions. How do you think is best to open up that conversation?

My dad is normally quite chill and while he does snap occasionally he has never physically hit me since I was a kid (it was his generations way of discipline) But yesterday we were having a stupid fight over beans and he grabbed my wrist and it really, really hurt, so I hit him off me. I was really ...

Thanks! I'm hoping I can get a job soon so I can save money for a flat until then! Leaving the conversation is hard, she usually forces herself into my room and stands by the door. I think I maybe need to work on just not letting her in, and also getting shoes on and maybe getting out of there the n...

this one is kind of long so i apologise I was sexually assaulted (groped) as a teen by my brother frequently over a period of six months. At the time I told my mother and she yelled at me for it. I repressed the incident for years until I went to uni and started hearing my friends etc talk about sex...

sorry

Glad you enjoyed the pun lol Okay I tried those things but it didn’t work and I got kinda stressed and upser so I stopped With the first one, all I could see was the labia and stuff like () that and I had like two torches cause it’s so dark but I continued only being able to see a () and nothing els...

That helps a bit! Sorry I thought I replied already! I have searched a bit for it right and I've been trying to do it once a week to just Normalise it BUT every time i look I find something different 1) Once I put my finger down into something but it stopped quite suddenly so idk if that was the vag...

/// please don't reply to this if you are a man, I'm sure you are a nice person but it would make me uncomfortable lol //// Context, for the Longest time I've had a phobia of touching anywhere down there in general, but after a Cyst forced me to touch my labia, and after I lowkey discovered masturba...

Thank you so much for this! I think I replied but then got timed out so the reply didn't send, this was so helpful, and I'm feeling a little better! I also managed to talk to a friend a little about it cause i know she has a history of trauma and I wanted to see what she thought It absolutely helps ...

Hi, I have contacted someone for counselling but it's a 6 month waiting list so it'll be a while before I can talk these feelings out with a real person. And I also spoke to my GP today about getting put on a wait-list for CBT so hopefully that's a little shorter! I think it does feel like if someon...

/// please don't reply to this if you are a man it would make me uncomfortable //// As a survivor of minor sexual trauma (i was groped without consent repeatedly for 6 months when I was 15/16) I've grown up thinking the worst in men. For the longest time I associated male sexual desire as a desire t...

Haha thank you so much ! I hope none of my family members are secretly Witcher's in disguise Yeah I normally change out my underwear just because it gets /wet/ and feels kinda gross lol I'm so so glad there isn't a specific sex smell, and I have been washing the pillow occasionally (and obviously ke...

So to begin this very odd question I have to explain that I do not have a sense of smell. This obviously means I can't smell Anything. But I was recently watching The Witcher, and while the main character has many superhuman abilities, in one episode he said he could Smell there was Sex in a room an...

Hi, sorry for the late reply a lot has happened and now I need help with something kind of minor I ended up telling my cousin (who is a GP about it) and they looked at me and saw I had a big old spot the size of a small marble (probably from an ingrown hair) I have SUCH a phobia of touching anything...

Thanks for replying The pain is in the outer labia! But just the left side, it doesn’t look different to normal. It kinda hurts to spread my legs (and walk)! Pressing on it is painful in the way that it would be painful to press a bruise (although there is no bruising) None of the pain is internal b...

Hi, So I’m not sure how I managed it (I think it started after masterbating) but one side of my labia is in a great deal of pain! It happens when sitting or standing and sometimes it’s not there and sometimes it is It is a weird dull pain as if I’ve pulled a muscle and when I’m wiping myself it hurt...

I'm sorry, I tried to reply to this when you posted but it crashed somehow and I was too tired to write a full reply out again

This is really reassuring to hear! As I've always felt very disconnected from my body, I'm always worried I'm going to hurt it.

Thanks,

Thank you to you both! I'm sorry, I tried to reply to this when you posted but it crashed somehow I would love for you to connect me with some resources for sexual assault survivors that are based in Northern Ireland because I'm really struggling and I don't know where to go! I also find it difficul...

Thank you so much, this brings me so much validation and I appreciate it greatly! Even if its anonomously on the internet, talking about this has made something heavy lift of my chest! I would love to speak to someone like a counsellor or therapist, but I recently moved to Northern Ireland and I hav...

Hi, Thank you this is really reassuring and makes me feel normal about what I've been doing I haven't had anything close to a boyfriend and even if i had I know that I'm not ready for that kind of relationship so it seems strange to be worrying about that now. But I just want to know I'll enjoy sex,...

THIS IS SUCH A LONG POST IM VERY SORRY So to start things off I want to say that even writing this I feel as though people are going to scoff at it and to dismiss it as something really minor. This is a horrifying thought because I feel I've not being able to look at my body the same way since. When...

Hi, So first of all due to some Trauma as a teen I have a weird fear of my area down below. Recently I've discovered masturbation, and that some things I've been doing because they feel nice (squeezing legs together) can be considered stimulating. Last month I also realised it feels really good to p...

Thanks for replying,

I'm not sure ? I don't feel this way about anything else in my body ? Sometimes my feet gross me out but I don't think that counts

Today I looked at my female genitals for the first time ever and It was super gross. I've always found genitals disgusting and the idea of something going up there (be it male genitals or tampons) REALLY grosses me out? For me its like nails on a chalkboard or a really disturbing scene from a movie ...
