Hi All,
This is very embaressing but I have just had my lexapro adjusted to 15mg after a huge change in my life. The automatic negative thoughts started coming and I was sick for a few weeks before I realised I needed to up my dose. Anyway I was being intimate with my boyfriend and automatic thought of my Dad flashed into my mind (no wasnt abused have a very normal relationship with my Dad who is great) which as you can imagine is a total pasion killer. What a horrible thought to have whilst being intimate with your gorgeous man. Now I am terrified to sleep with my boyfriend as I am scared that images of my Dad will come again. And because I have catastophised it its bound to pop back in. So its a no win situation! Any advice for such an embaressing question?? |

Think of it as a mental blip, an aberration on an otherwise healthy relationship. If it keeps happening, so what?
The other way to see it as something that you need to investigate, something wrong with you that needs to be examined and fixed.
