Even if you’ve been together for a while, sex can be pretty hit or miss. There are some things that might require you going to see a professional to get things together. It’s also worth noting that no couple is going to be in the ideal sexual relationship all of the time. But just because your default preferences exist on different pages doesn’t mean you have to stay there. Here are a few suggestions for how even the most off-centered couples can get their sex lives in sync.
Anxiety is real and it can be overwhelming. If you don’t have the coping tools to handle the piles of shit life is going to throw at you, those piles of shit will seem catastrophic. But if you learn how to face them head on, and you learn how to talk yourself through these shit-storms, you might find that you have more control over your anxiety than it has over you.
FROM THE CONFESSIONAL
Confession #25819318 I'm so worried that my anxiety disorder is hurting my kids.
#25814581 "Anxiety has me spiraling right now. Discomfort in my chest is bringing it to another level. Took a xanax but it's not helping. So tired of living with mental illness. Covid & isolation have made this so much worse."
#25814780 "My sweet MIL is a hoarder. Going to her should-be spacious house fills me with so much anxiety. Only because I know the day will come when we are all expected to clean out that hoard."
