Feel anxiety when having sex with boyfriend. Treatment?
human
Hello, would you please tell me what kind of treatment i need for BDD, apart for teraphy, councelling and CBT . I get very anxious when i have sex with my boyfriend and cannot watch him on the face, i alawys need to be dark in the room, and all the time feel shame when we make sex. He kind of get use with me but for me its very unconfortable,. I think my behaviour relate to my teeneger years when i have been very aubused by a man, mentally and physicaly. After that, now 10 years since happen, i have alawys been ashamed in relationship and wonder if i have to tell my boyfriend what make me happy in the bed or still keep shut, as i am concern about rejection or any other stress about my own body. Thank you very much for reading this and very apreciate if you can help me. Angela

Hello and welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thanks for your query. I'm not sure what you are referring to by the term "BDD". You have probably mispelt it; so please clarify. You have also mentioned that you are having a problem of feeling anxious and unconfortable while having sex. Like you have mentioned, it could be related to your past history of abuse or past negative sexual experiences. I would advise you to consult a psychiatrist for a detailed evaluation, so that further management of your problem can be planned. Wish you all the best.
