Puberty Problems

I've been going through a rough time lately with anxiety and depression. I am just 21 and it's scaring me. Lately, I've noticed my sex drive completely tanking, and it's making me feel even more disconnected from my partner. We haven't talked about it yet, but I'm worried it's putting a strain on our relationship. Does anyone else experience this? Will he leave me? Is there a connection between mental health and sexual well-being?

Yes, there is strong connection between mental health and sexual life. Your stress and depression tax your emotional energy and gradually you lose interest in sex. Also if you are taking medicines for depression, they will worson your problem. Now you have to take special efforts to come out of this situation. If you are taking any medicines, talk to your doctor to change them or atleast reduce their doses gradually. Love yourself First & Try erogenic zones on your body. Have open discussion with your partner to let him know your side and you want to work on it with him. Try to develop newly refreshed intimate connection with him. Try different types of sex- oral or mutual masturbation etc. Keep some special time for you two to connect and share a intimate relationship. Sex is just one part of intimacy and you can try other sensual forms of intimacy like curdling, holding hand. During your coffee time, connect with your partner daily and discuss about things to keep spark alive.

Rumination is not a disorder. It is a preventative cognition which is found alongside many disorder such as depression, anxiety, OCD & PTSD. What do you find yourself ruminating about the most ??

I think for me it is household chores and miscellaneous tasks. I get anxious about when I'll get to them and when it's get done

القرارات يجب ألّا تتخذ في وجود الإنفعالات…..
عندك حق ده فعلاً صعب بس مع مجموعة من المهارات بيتم التدريب عليها بتقدري تتحكمي في انفعالاتك وتخففي حدتها في اسرع وقت عشان تقدري تاخدي قرارات حكيمه
فعلا الإنسان مش لازم ياخد قرار وهو قلقان بزيادة على أد ما الموضوع صعب لأننا احيانا كتير بنضطر ناخد قرار بغض النظر عن حالتنا النفسية إلا إن عواقب القرار بعد كدا ممكن تبقى أصعب بكتير مما تخيلنا.

Don’t feel bad if someone mis-treats you.

Absoultly right.....stay away from people who spred negativity around u..who so ever is.
This is so true n powerful messsge which we missed learning in our childhood. People try to get you to their standards always. So always associate with the ones who lift you up. Refrain from the ones who try to put you down to their levels.

How we look at things from a positive or a negative point of view. Being pessimistic and optimistic are personality traits that can really influence a person's mindset and well-being. #growthmindset #optimistic #mindsetcoaching #mindsetmatters

A glass half empty person. Just stay prepared for the worst and expect the worst only because that's what eventually happens only.. 🤢🤢

Hello, I'm Ananya Singh, a dedicated psychology expert with over 2 years of experience in the field. My passion lies in helping individuals navigate through various life challenges and enhancing their mental well-being. Over the past two years, I have had the privilege of working extensively with adolescents, adults, and middle-aged adults. Mental health has often been neglected, and one of my primary motivations for becoming a psychologist. I love helping people and understanding their problems. I have been studying psychology for the past 7 years, and I have never been as passionate about anything else as I am about psychology. As I delved deeper into the field, I recognized that I, too, had my own mental health challenges, including self-esteem and anxiety issues. Before I started counseling others, I sought therapy myself and worked through my personal struggles, which reinforced my commitment to helping others. My expertise covers a wide range of issues, including relationship problems, breakups, marital conflicts, body image concerns in women, self-esteem issues, comparisons with the unrealistic standards set by social media, spouse-related issues, and the pervasive struggles with anxiety and depression, particularly among young women. My approach is empathetic and tailored to each individual's needs, ensuring a safe and supportive environment for healing and growth. In my practice, I have conducted over 200 hours of counseling sessions, predominantly with women of all ages, helping them overcome their struggles and achieve a balanced mental state. Whether you're dealing with personal issues, emotional distress, or seeking guidance for better mental health, I am here to assist you on your journey to well-being.
