    • About Me

      I am 40+, ADHD, married multiple times, no children, many animals. I have an advanced degree, and I have traveled the world. Yet with all of this, I have still ended up in a place that is bad for me. I am looking for friends, support, and honest feedback while I try to get myself out of this hole. Glad to help anyone I can in the process! I work as a child abuse investigator, dealing primarily with sexual abuse cases and extreme physical abuse as well.

      I am having LOTS of trouble with my husband of 4 years, and we have had MANY struggles over sex. I now have no sex drive, but I know if I don't have sex, and enthusiastically, I will pay emotionally. I am at a loss.
