Therapy is painful ONLY until you get past the painful parts. For instance, you say your childhood was painful -== so was mine, but after I got thru all the crap of my childhood in therapy, the therapy was NOT painful anymore. Honestly! All I had to do was tell the story of my childhood, the therapist asked questions about it, and we worked on the problems that it caused! Simple as that.
Perhaps you do want to remain asexual, but you really SHOULD deal with the problems of your childhood. It makes your life easier to bear -- believe me, I've been there and since i've gotten rid of that garbage, I no longer cry at the drop of a hat, or sit and dwell on my past for hours. Plus things don't trigger me, and I CAN have friendships that aren't affected by anythiing from my past! Big difference!
Hugs, Lee
