I NEED HELP PLEASE........?

Question

I don't open up in my relationships. With friends or partners but especially with partners. My ex would always try to get my input on everything but I was always to nervous to answer. I always thing that people secretly think i say stupid things. I back myself up when its something that's important. ex) my family but thats about it.

I wasn't like this until middle school and it got worse in high school. Now that I;m in college its a little better cuz I'm trying a lil harder. I make small talk and thats about it.

and then what makes all this weirder is that im totally different in bed. Ill try a lot of different things but other than that im really shy about everything.

any advice would be amazing. :-)

Answer 1

It sounds like you went through some emotional trauma growing up, which has caused you to be afraid to make yourself vulnerable. You may get all "freaky" in the bedroom, but that's just part of the syndrome.

Check with your college health service on the possibility of discussing this with a therapist.
