I hate that we don’t talk about hypersexuality after assault as much. My therapist said for me it was like a subconscious need to give consent, but it never made me feel any less sh*tty. I felt like I was responding “wrong” & I couldn’t be that traumatized if I still wanted sex

Losing your sex drive is “expected” so when I had the opposite reaction I thought I was a full on psychopath I wish I had more people in my corner at the time to tell me I wasn’t an anomaly. I was so grateful when I joined me too it was the first time I felt normal in so long
