I'm struggling to get wet

Post by Tealscarf »

I'm normally aroused ( I think), even when I'm in the mood for something i don't get wet as I thought i would. I don't know what to do for it. Maybe it's the excess media consumption? Or how I'm excessively doing stuff to myself? I don't think I get wet easily and I wanna fix that, i end up going in semi dry. I've tried a bit of teasing and touching myself on other places like my thighs, chest and all, but nothing seems to work. Help please

Hi Tealscarf, sorry to hear that you've found it challenging to be aroused.

We can't say for sure what caused this, but for a lot of people, getting aroused can be difficult if they're tired and/or stressed from day-to-day activities. Another factor could be the environment you're in—is anything in your room too loud or too bright? Are there any scents you think might be helpful to get you in the mood? And there's also the internal pressure to feel good now that we might consciously or unconsciously realize. That pressure can make someone anxious, and hinder them from feeling good at their own pace. Would you say any of these points apply to you?

Like Hannah and Heather said on your first post about orgasm, it's a good practice to continue exploring what works for you out of curiosity, including using lube. Additionally, since you mentioned media, we can't say that you're consuming "too much" of it, but it could be helpful to change things up by checking out different things. How does this sound to you?
