Can anyone relate to being unable to receive pleasure due to overstimulation?
After a long time, I finally feel comfortable having sex because I figured out my sensory profile. It’s way less overstimulating now, but only if I’m the one in control.
I’m gray-ace and treat sex as an activity. Most of the time I don’t have the drive, but I enjoy it and think it’s fun but I still struggle with receiving pleasure. It’s just very overwhelming for me. Even with a lot of communication, it’s still super overstimulating.
I don’t know if I should keep exploring it or just accept that I just can't receive pleasure from another person. Does anyone have a similar experience? Any advice?
