I was sexually abused as a child but only started to remember events that took place when i was around 16, i had been sexually active prior to remembering and was enjoying sex. when i started to remember things, it was like something changed... even now 2 yrs later i cant have sex without crying, i can do whatever to the guy, but once it starts feeling ok for me i get into a panic, its like i want to cry, run away, just escape, it hurts.. like i seriously just feel like i am going to explode... i have tried talking to myself while having sex. giving myself reasurance but nothing seems to help, i have even masterbated to see if that would make a difference but it doesnt, i still feel the same... does anyone have any ideas on how i can make the feelings go away
thankyou

I am so sorry that you were abused as a child. It's completely understandable why you don't enjoy sex, having gone through this.
My personal guess (I'm not a doctor) is that you have post-traumatic stress disorder. It's common for people prior to abuse. It's also common for people to experience what you are experiencing.
In any case, PTSD or no PTSD, I strongly believe that you need professional help. You absolutely can get past this and enjoy sex again, but to do that, you need to take care of yourself mentally and emotionally to heal the wounds. If you're in high school or college, you most likely have a counselor on campus who you can see for free, who has a psychiatry or psychology degree and who can help you. See them.

I agree with above. I'm so sorry you have had to go through this, and I very much hope that you're able to move past this and be able to enjoy sex at some point in the future. I also agree that you should seek professional help, such as a therapist. There are trained therapists that deal with specifically situations like yours and I have heard of people who are using them to help work through their issues. All the best of luck.
