I was sexually abused as a child from 7 -10 years old by 2 different "family" members. I never told anyone til my early 20's, even then it was pushed aside. I was sexually premiscuous in my late teens and early 20's. I have had bad sexual experiences in some of my relationships. Now that I am sober i dont like being intimate. the drinking always put me at ease for intimacy, now that its gone i dont know how to act without it when it comes to that. I know the meds i take decrease desire as well. I feel bad for my boyfriend, but i cant change how i feel. I wonder if he should come to therapy with me or not. I dont want to lose this relationship because of the inability to be intimate. Any suggestions?
