[QUOTE]Originally posted by Miss Lauren: [QB] Hey, I totally get the various "why me"'s. I get being jealous of friends and family who can have intercourse without restraint, when you'd give everything to have a pain-free encounter once! But part of getting well is getting rid of that negativity. Instead of "Our first time sucked", it's thinking "He stuck by me to help me through this while some other guy might have packed; THAT'S romantic!". Instead of this not being your choice, it IS, and you have the power to change it! Is your boyfriend supporting you during treatment? It's pretty crucial to have your partner's involvement and positivity, since the opposite can actually increase symptoms. I successfully treated my own vaginismus at home without medical intervention by shifting my attitude and doing the exercises. Unfortunately, the vaginismus was secondary to my primary pain problem, and still returns during a bad flare. But I can tell you that even when it does come back, treating it is a snap. (This may not apply to you, but to me? I learned to let my first time go. Great, romantic, beautiful sex can and does happen, and it's very rarely the first time (or with vaginal intercourse, for that matter), anyway. I don't believe in virginity for myself, but when I do "give it up", I like to think it will be uninhibited by pain and enjoyed.) [/QB][/QUOTE]
