I'm not going to beat myself up for being emotionally ill. It's not my fault. It's a medical condition.

Ok, I can't do loving, married relationship. I just can't do some other things, too. Or I can only do some things in small amounts.

Now what?

I'm stuck in a living hell with a husband. I'm coping every day and just trying to be pleasant or get away from him. No more fight in me. I know it's pointless.

Just keep breathing I guess.

It's so hard when you feel like all you can do is just keep breathing. I'm sorry you're not happy with the situation you're in, does anything feel good or better than this for you?
Thanks for this!

It's just the sexual/ intimacy component of my marriage. Otherwise, I'm pretty neurotic, but I'm functioning, have friends, work, take care of life, have a great life.

I'm not sure it it's an emotional disorder that caused the intimacy problem or if it's the other way around.

I think you understand a lot because of all the self reflection/ soul searching you have done and that is good. I am sorry it's not everything you want it to be but since you are striving for more, maybe it will improve just a little bit eventually.

But intimacy takes two so perhaps part of the problem is on him. Not that I would want you to discuss him here but I think you have had initimate relationships in the past so this is a bad pattern that developed between the two of you. It does not define everything about you. It does not mean that you can't have these thing someday. (Though I know the thought that you may not experience it again is one of the major reasons for your depression.)
Thanks for this!

I know in DBT therapy two things that helped me was leaving or distracting yourself if leaving is not an option then try to distract yourself with things you like doing.
