I recently found out that my husband has a sex addiction. He has been visiting prostitutes and parlours for the last 4 years. He has given me a full disclosure, and is attending therapy, as well as SAA meetings. he has completely cut out sexual temptation out of his life, including porn.
Im struggling though. We have been together for so long, and he's always treated me so well. He was my best friend. and ...

Hi! So my boyfriend had a psychological consultation and was diagnosed with visual hypersensitivity. He never supported the texture of the makeup, and the doctors told him that he can panic when he sees makeup. I love make-up and it's a passion of mine. I would not want to give it up and I am looking for a treatment for this condition. What can we do to remedy his hypersensitivity?

My mom is an abusive narcissist. There are many things she has done to me over the years which have left me horrified, fearful, trapped, and lonely.

My mom has done a lot of different things to me that I do NOT condone but I have not been able to combat in any way because she prevents me from setting boundaries to protect myself.

The list is long but she has smothered me, been extremely ...

Have been at the job 3 years. I noticed the NPD on my first day. I would have bailed then because I was just crawling out of a full year of depression due to an NPD relationship, but I had assurances by family and friends that this was not the norm. There are family ties that make leaving difficult if not impossible. By the end of year 2 I realized the negatives officially were equal ...

Is it common that the HPD person has some repulse to sex, although talking about sex and saying she wants sex all the time ? This was a major complain I had from my ex. She complained about not having sex all the time, but I tried the impression was that she was not liking the experience. I was not aware of the condition (never heard about HPD until that point). And I could not ...

She was distant for a few weeks, so I knew something "not good" was happening. She quit her job because she claimed she no longer liked her field and it seemed too much like a coincidence that, without needing to be over here to sleep an hour more before leaving for work, that she got distant right afterwards.



We were together without any breaks/break-ups for around 2 years before she met a guy at her ...

I am wondering if someone not wanting to be seen can cause them to slouch.
Like if they don't want to be seen by their mom because they dislike talking to her, is it possible that they start subconsciously slouching to avoid being seen.

I need help. I was in a narcissistic relationship for 20 years but didn’t realize it until the last several years. I was lied to, verbally and emotionally abused, money was taken from me and he invaded my privacy. It came down to him telling me that the FBI is after me and that I have 2 felonies on me. I have never done anything wrong from a legal standpoint.
I found spyware on my ...

I've been with a fellow for five years now. I began to realize 'something is not quite right' within the first year. I just thought he was being the occasional inconsiderate arsehole, but then I began to notice a plethora of other things.

He lost a very close friend and mentor--I never saw him cry. Recently, he lost both of his parents to illness within four months. He did not attend either funeral, but attended ...

I introduced my sister to a guy around 10-11 years ago. We’ll call him Bozo. Bozo impressed her by talking about a lot of esoteric topics and talking down about pharmaceuticals. He claimed he healed miraculously from an accident using only homeopathy and wanted her to think he was powerful. After they parted ways she was convinced he had done black magic in her. Another girl contacted her and they both thought Bozo had done ...
