every time i have sex, the climax turns into a panic attack.(or wot i think is a panic attack)
I can feel my chest getting tighter and then it starts to hurt, my breathinhg goes eratic and i feel like i cant breathe.
i lost a baby baby earlier this year and my partner says it's just me grieving, but i dont think it is but what do i know, im the women who lost a child and showed no emotion to find out that panic attacks are her thing.
I just had a panic attack writing this so maybe the truth that sets me off.
Help me please

I am SO SORRY for your loss. First I would say talk to your doctor! What your partner says makes sense to me. PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder) is very real. If just writing about the event can produce a panic attack then certainly actually participating in the act of conception could also. I hope that makes sense. And of course you are grieving, whether your aware of it or not. Look for a therapist, you have gone through something horrible and i would said showing no emotion, as you put it, speaks for itself. Please seek a therapist

Well from a guys point of view. I can relate to the PA during sex thing. A few months ago the act of sex would sort of freak me out a little. Now dont get me wrong i love sex but , i could tell it put a little distance between my fiance and me until i tild her why i no longer wnated it. I finaalu got oveer the fear and learned to relax during sex and now my drive is back like it was years ago. i am now 35 as of OCt. 20.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
