zoloft

Avatar f tn hey! not sure if it belongs in here but had no luck on other forums I'm 22 years old with a family history of endo, often struggle with infections. had my appendix removed (laparoscopy) last week, it was awful BUT now I'm constantly horny and get aroused very quickly. what's weird is before the surgery my sensitivity was low, sex didn't feel good, orgasm was so hard to achieve I gave up. it even hurt sometimes. thought I was asexual or too depressed.
1699033 tn?1514113133 The HOCD sufferer needs behavior therapy, which teaches the person how to deal with and successfully diminish obsessions, and often SSRI medications (such as Prozac, Luvox, and Zoloft). More about treatments for OCD...
1253991 tn?1300992064 Hi neptune, I just read your post and I have left you a rather long winded message about my experiences with depression and sexuality. I'll keep this one short. Have you "come out" yet? How do you feel about your sexuality? I'm just asking because my denial for many years led to my depression and I wish I had dealt with it years before I did. I have been on Zoloft for a while now, and previously I have been on about 10 different anti-depressants.
Avatar f tn I have identified as heterosexual all my life and now I am questioning my sexuality as well?! Could this be a confusion caused by not having that familiar pull towards the opposite sex? I still can't deny that men are attractive to me. Now I think women might be too?!
778578 tn?1251735818 Sometimes I will masturbate in a chatroom with females and sometimes i can ejaculate and some times not. When I do ejaculate which is rare I don't have a very good erection and its not very enjoyable. I want to know if there are other guys out there with the same problem and please give me some answers to let me know what to do . I love my wife and want to stay married to her but she is going to get fed up sooner or later and so far she has been very understanding.
Avatar f tn my sickly 17 yr old niece started talking to a girl in a male voice and fell in love with that girl but when she revealed the girl said she wil go along and be with with her and wait for sex change op. now the girl got a good job and she rejected by niece, so my niece not eating or studying cutting herself up and her mom to make her male. we i and my siter not working and doesn't have any means to do all that.
Avatar n tn thank you gagootza, I think you've understood my inner feelings. Although I'm 27 I feel link an adolescent...it' just my first experiences,and I'm sure I have all the paranoic feelings that a teenager has. As in all other issues of my life, I should face my fears; it's against my "will" to do anything in life, and thus, I must insist.
Avatar f tn Hi there. Well, let me just say this. We date for a reason. We are supposed to be looking at the other person critically and deciding if the relationship should go long term or not. This man has a different level of sexual libido than you do. Tired and neck pain and stress ---- those things are off and on for life. So, I'd imagine this is him. This is what it would be like long term. So often, there is a difference between the sexual needs between partners.
Avatar f tn Some people are into quite unusual stuff, which is fine as long as their partner is into it too. As new partners, and husband and wife, it is bound to take some time as you explore what each of you like to find out what works best for both of you - particularly since you currently have no experience, and (for all I know) he may or may not also be inexperienced. For this reason, don't put too much expectation on the first time.
Avatar n tn and i dont know what to do to let him feel sexy and have the desire to do intercoarse and to let him arouse and when he act i dont feel arouse and as any girl must feel why?
Avatar f tn Okay... I've had HOCD for 3 years. I'm a female who is obsessed with the possibility of being bi or a lesbian. Sounds like that's the case for you too. Your sexuality can't really change. It is was it is. A HUGE part of OCD is doubt doubt doubt. I keep doubt every single day of my sexuality and it causes me so much distress. People aren't disgusted by their sexuality. Remember: gay people fear the outcome of coming out not their attraction.
Avatar f tn I have been having really bad anxiety on and off. The Dr. gave me Zoloft and it seems to have helped with my anxiety. But as it is I have a very hard time getting restful sleep. When I do sleep I have ongoing dreams and my mind doesn't get any rest. Now with the Zoloft my sleep is much less restful. Any suggestions?
Avatar m tn There is nothing wrong with being gay or fantasizing about other men. If my sons were gay, it wouldn't bother me at all. Having intrusive thoughts is a different thing. You said you tried masturbating while thinking about men and now feel worse. Maybe you were just experimenting with your sexuality. Have you ever thought you might be gay but fear the social stigma attached to it - like really thought about it.
Avatar n tn I looked up the side effects of Zoloft and tachycardia or any arrhythmia for that matter is not listed. You may want to ask your doctor about this. It could be some anxiety but the Zoloft should be helping with that by now. Take care.
Avatar n tn I suffer from anxiety and depression, and I believe my on-going unanswered question of who I truly am is the true cause. About 4-5 years ago my real questioning began. I became good friends with a classmate and even got to know his family well. The family suspected possible gay orientations and questioned him. (It was a normal friendship between two males, no homosexual acts) It freaked me out and was hurtful. It spun me into a anxiety/depression state of mind and have battling it ever since.
Avatar m tn I am a 21 year old female who is confused right now, and its giving me a lot of anxiety. I have never had a boyfriend or had sex, but have had crushes on guys, gone on dates with them, and wanted to eventually do sexual things with them. The dates never amounted into anything, and I've attributed that to me being picky and also in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Avatar f tn Also, I have woken up with orgasms before and find that I touch myself in my sleep without even meaning to and would like to stop this.
Avatar n tn My son is 12, is a great kid, but sudenly he became obsessed with sex. He masturbates frequently, sometimes in front of othe people. He told us that he masturbated wearing his sister's clothes (lingerie - bra and panties). He said that sometimes he looked at other boys butt's, and that he even looked at his own mother in a lustful way. He is very candid about his actions, and he ends up telling us everything, but he is feeling very ashamed of his actions and thpughts.
Avatar f tn I didn't really know where to put this... But anyways. I'm a bisexual girl and my best friend is a girl. I was at her house and we were talking about marrige (only 14 haha) So I said "I hope my husband or wife has a cool apartment" and she just looked at me. Then she said "Wife!" and then I told her I was bisexual. She just looked at me and said "I don't wanna sleepover with you now, I feel like you're gonna rape me in my sleep!" I felt terrible.
1096024 tn?1257454227 I had a talk just the two of us. She told me that he woke her up and wanted her to lay with him. And showed her his private. I told her that I am glad she told me. I let her know she was not in trouble at all. I talked with my fiancee' about it. I don't want him here. He said well he's my family. what am I supposed to do? Well, she's our daughter is what I said. I don't want over. He did that to my daughter once, don't want it happening again.
Avatar m tn I have asked her some time ago about abuse, and she and I have a fairly honest relationship. Her reply was; "No". I still had cause to suspect abuse, perhaps in her childhood, but decided to just take her answer and let it be easier on her. I didn't think it would necessarily help her if I dug into her personal life, so I dropped the subject. Some years ago, as I got to know her history, I suspected abuse again.
Avatar m tn t have any suggestions or experience with this but I want to wish you the best in exploring your sexuality and finding yourself
