Navigating Sex After Trauma

Many people who have been through trauma are extremely hesitant about sexual activity. It’s important to note that it is not only survivors of sexual trauma that may struggle with navigating sex after trauma. This can happen as a result of any trauma.

Feeling is healing. Allow yourself to feel your emotions. Don’t suppress them. Don’t pretend they’re not there. Just witness them, process them, and heal them.

You are allowed to feel sadness without taking it out on your body.

You are allowed to feel guilt without attacking yourself.

You are allowed to feel insecure without taking compensatory measures.

You are allowed to feel.

You are allowed.

I feel like people don’t truly understand how terrible sexual trauma is. Your body is supposed to be the one place where you feel safe and the one thing that belongs to you and only you. Not feeling safe in your own skin is one of the most horrible feelings in the world.

“Unexpressed emotions will never die. They are buried alive and they will come forth, later, in uglier ways.”
