I had an appointment with a new therapist yesterday. I really liked her. Next week we are going to have medication consultation because she said my depression sounds pretty horrible so it is time to try some other options. I told her all about my husband and how I was still with him. She said, how do you feel about yourself right now? I said I feel worthless and weak. She said do women who feel worthless and weak leave their husbands? I said, probably not. She said we work on that and also work on the practical nature of leaving. Our goal is to get me feeling better, feeling better about myself and making plans for leaving. It was a good session, of course I was exhausted afterwards. Emotional stuff makes me exhausted.
My husband continues to ask me for sex. And Bev, you’ll love this one, I finally told him that I never have an orgasm. I told him I’ve lied for years and I count on one hand the amount of times I’ve had one with him. He was shocked. He couldn’t believe it. HA!December 4, 2012 at 5:00 pm #62236lisakParticipantthe new therapist sounds like a good one! you already sound stronger…
December 4, 2012 at 5:01 pm #62237kimberelyMemberThat therapist sounds like a keeper….so far
Glad you like her.
December 4, 2012 at 5:45 pm #62238972MemberOh Stephanie…you made my day. One of the biggest sell outs we commit is lying to them about their sexual prowess. I love it!!
Keep the counselor. I like the way she thinks 🙂

December 4, 2012 at 9:21 pm #62241courtneyParticipantLast Straw, so glad you found someone who seems to get it.
I faked orgasms for a long time, too, just told him a couple of weeks ago. He accused me of “lying to hurt him”. i told him, no, I am telling you the truth now, I was lying before. I used to try to tell him what I needed, and every time it would be like he hadn’t heard it before. I got so tired of having such tiring sex with him.December 4, 2012 at 9:42 pm #62242sharronParticipantGlad you found a therapist you are happy with. Good ones are few and far between. I like her first approach.
December 4, 2012 at 9:56 pm #62243dianeParticipantYeah!!!!!
Hang in there last straw. You are heading in a better direction!
And keep on telling your truth. That’s how you begin to honour it yourself.
D.xoDecember 4, 2012 at 10:01 pm #62244teriParticipantYay, last straw! You are finding your voice, sounds like, and valuing yourself, one step at a time.
December 5, 2012 at 5:17 am #62245geeParticipantI love my therapist, he’s gay, love him. I never understood lying about orgasms, I’ve always hated sex, was dirty to me. Yes, I’m one of those women. That always upset my h, my loathing of sex and how He could never please me. But I did it with him 3 times a week as I wanted to make sure he wouldn’t cheat on me…lol,lol,lol,lol, lol harder!!! Lol!!!
December 5, 2012 at 5:17 am #62246geeParticipantLol!!!
December 5, 2012 at 1:57 pm #62247972MemberMaybe you always hated sex because you hated him….You just didn’t know it?
I would just love to see you get with the right man and have a mind blowing orgasm 🙂
December 5, 2012 at 6:33 pm #62248geeParticipantBev, so funny, again…..
