I also want to add that I find some of the "healing" talk quite alienating. There is sometimes a steer towards becoming "functional" and sexual again, but it's worth remembering that this is not the gold-star state of recovery. Being non-sexual and excluding intimate touch from your life is a valid choice if you are happy, safe and accepting of it.
Thank you. Right now I'm okay with the thought of ever being physical again. I don't want to get back to liking sex or any of that. I just want to be in a place where I can talk openly about what things happen.
Possible trigger:
It's disturbing, graphic uncomfortable stuff that I want to be able to talk about.
