Sad sex?

Question

I’ve recently noticed a pattern that starts with me. It doesn’t reflect my husband at all. We have a healthy sex life, we make time for each other. What I’ve noticed is, whenever I’m down about my extended family problems or just sad in general, I initiate the wildest sex. No one is complaining I’ve just noticed this pattern & wondered if there’s something wrong with me.
Can anyone relate?

Answer

I think it’s probably not a concern unless you are doing it as a form of self harm (such as deliberately getting too rough or doing things that you feel bad about afterward).
Otherwise, sex is a good way to relieve stress, and maybe you want to get extra crazy because it feels good to let go of your inhibitions and be “out of control” in a way that feels good when there are things outside your control in the rest of your life making you feel bad 🤷🏻‍♀️
I have bad anxiety and sex helps so much, it’s like a reset button for my brain and seems to release all the stress hormones that build up in my system, there was a time period where my depression and anxiety was really bad and almost every time we had sex it started with me crying and my husband cuddling me to comfort me, then we’d end up banging 🤦🏻‍♀️

Answer

Sex is an outlet for all kinds of emotions at times. Depressed sex. Angry sex. Excited sex. My emotions affect sex all the time.
