I might finally try to find a therapist this year for my people issues, i don't mind hugs, but anything further especially if its trying to lead to anything sexual makes me shut down. i have experienced sexual trauma when i was younger, i want to be able to deal with it, i wanna at least try a physical relationship. I count myself as lesbian, but i'm poly, one of the people im with currently with is trans (pre-op) and open to a physical relationship. I have a phobia of pregnancy, but also am too embarrassed even at 23 to go to the doctors and talk about getting the implant, tablets etc, especially when i just want my tubes tied in the future
Admitting you could use help is the first big step to getting help. Look for a therapist that has experience with LGBT issues as well as abuse. Also it will not be an improvement in one go, it will take a little time to work out. As hard as some subjects are to discuss, you will need to be truthful so the therapist can help you.
