Sexual repression even after marriage

I was born in as a JW, but was kicked out of my house at 18 years old because my stepfather did not want me around. I became very promiscuous, but not because I had a desire for sex, but because I wanted somebody to love me. It is interesting, though that, through many boyfriends, and even a marriage of 12 years, my JW upbringing would not allow me to enjoy sex. As soon as I start to feel sexually aroused, I would start sneezing which I think was my body’s trying to interrupt any pleasure. Has anyone ever experienced anything like this?

Nail biter for almost 50 years

Does anyone else believe childhood trauma to be the root cause of their nail biting? For me, I started at around 12 years old and I believe began due to anxiety i dealt with having a mean step father and an uncaring mother. I believe I have finally stopped for good in the last couple months. Letting go of the past along with medication has really helped.
