what is sexual frustration - #27435
I am feeling really confused and overwhelmed right now. Lately, I've been experiencing something that I think might be what is sexual frustration, but I'm not entirely sure. I've been in a long-distance relationship for over a year, and it's been tough, ya know? I mean, we video call and message all the time, but there's been no physical contact for like six months now – just feels super draining. I try to ride it out, but then I find myself getting angry or moody, and I can't figure out why. I couldn’t even concentrate on work last week; my mind just keeps wandering to those moments when we were together! It’s like my body wants something but I can't fulfill it. Is this really what is sexual frustration? I read somewhere that it can affect your mental health too, which freaks me out because I've been feeling kinda down. Can that happen? And is there anything I can do to cope with this? I seriously don’t wanna ruin my relationship over it, but god, the longing is unbearable sometimes! What are your thoughts? Am I overthinking this or is this really a thing? Would love to hear any advice or experiences.
