Am I mentally ill?


Question:
as a kid I went through difficult phase. my parents separated when I was 10 and so on... now that I'm older, whenever Im having sex, i enjoy it more when there is pain and a saddistic way. help?

Answers:
I don't think that this is necessarily a mental illness. Many people enjoy a bit of pain/pleasure sex. However, as you had a difficult childhood are you linking the two? Are you taking your anger out during sex? I mean your mental anger from the anguish of your childhood? If yes, then, yes you may have a problem and it's worth talking to a doctor about it.
Ah...no...Lots of people like pain during sex it heights the orgasm and is a turn on.
I can tell you that that has nothing to do with your parents separating...and while that may not necessarily be a healthy thing...that's a personal desire you gained but not as a result of a childhood experience. You're not mentally ill.
That has nothing to do with your parents! But if you are really sick of this enjoyment...maybe talk to a therapist! But if that is what you enjoy...then go at it as long as the girl doesn't mind! Good Luck!
Masochism and Sadism are not mental diseases. Your sexual preferences can be influenced by your upbringing. But there is a whole subculture of S&M participants who are into giving or getting pain. They have safewords so no one actually gets hurt. Most people, though, lean slightly towards liking a little pain with their pleasure anyway. It doesn't mean that you are mentally sick. Of course if it leans towards the macabre where you are really hurting other people, you might want to seek help. But if you are pulling hair or scratching your nails or even biting, that's normal; just kinky. Honestly, unless you are doing actual damage without the person's permission, I would say you are healthy. Just kinky. If it really bothers you though, seek counseling. They will help you work through your past and help you discover if there is a mental reason behind your affinity for pain.
Enroll in an NLP class to determine the pattern of your pleasure. When you find out that pattern, you'll know if you're ill or not. People eat feces during sex. Is that ill?
