I just want to reassure you that there isn't one "right" way to experience arousal. A lot of people experience pleasure from clitoral stimulation primarily or alone. As for subtle versus intense arousal, I think that's pretty subjective and you're not experiencing arousal the "wrong ...

I'm late to the game but; I'm sure this has been discussed prior, but I think the term "real sex" is hard to define if only for the fact that mainstream culture really only views penetration -especially vaginal penetration- as "actual" sex. Which is interesting considering a blow...

Ooof, I know from folks in my own life that Lexapro alone can make it harder to masturbate orgasm. I think it's really sound that your therapist is approaching this both from the medication angle and from the internal thoughts and feelings angle.
