Question
I am 17 at the moment. I was raped by my boyfriend a little over a year ago. On the surface everything is ok. I don't think about what happened - I've separated with the boy but we are still friends.
Everything is perfect with my new partner until it comes to sex. When we get physical i start shivering and feeling really sick and i just want it to be over as soon as possible. I am not sexually open anymore. I don't get flashbacks or anything like that so I'm not sure if it's post traumatic stress or I'm just being silly.
I want to have a healthy relationship but it feels like it'll never happen. Is it post traumatic stress? Can I get rid of it somehow?

Answer
Rosie,

This may be PTSD.
I suggest you  to give adequate  time  to your body to heal  naturally.

Sex in marriage alone can bring you  pleasant feelings in  long run. Sex outside marriage  is often the selfish need of  men.

Beware that you are not used and  thrown away
