Lorihadams-- hi guys...been busy!

[FarmerJamie]

Hey Lori, I do hope things get better. Stress is the destroyer all good things. I can't speak to everything you mentioned (as a male), but having been in a similar situation, the stress is no fun for the guy, either. Thanks all I'm going say. Just going to wish you both (and your family) the best.

Holy crap! You are having a day! Shhheeesh! Last night I was up listening to a stray huntin' dog barking outside my bedroom window. I was so tired I didn't feel like getting up, getting dressed, getting the gun from the safe, and heading outside so I just laid there thinking all my chickens, ducks, cats, and guineas would be fine and the dog would just go on his way. I was wrong! The dog killed one guinea and two silkies and I don't know where one of my cats has gone. Anyhow, I just wanted to write and tell you that when I was reading your journal about how you have zero sex drive. My heart skipped a beat because I thought I was the only one! I was taking the pill and stopped taking that thinking that is what the problem was but then anytime we would make love I would worry about getting pregnant. I am 100% sure I do NOT want any more kids. I actually thought about getting my tubes tied and not tell DH. So I got the IUD in Dec and I still have NO desire. I think between trying to make DH happy in the sack and money issues.....im exhausting! Just know you are not alone and now I know I'm not either.

All I can do is send you some hugs and tell you that I will be praying that you feel better. Stress can do all sorts of damage.

Yep. Stress wrecks the adrenals, which are the foundation of the endocrine system.

I could have written what you wrote. I'm going through the same thing, including the low sex drive and pain part. And hubby problems.

Just wrote about it at BYC: http://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=520710

Got some good advice there. Maybe there's a bit or two there that might help you too.

HUGS.

I don't have any great advice to add ... Too bad your husband doesn't understand how you feel?

But HUGS ... I hope things get better and it does sound like it can be stress-related. That kind of thing can feed on itself in a cycle within a marriage so ... Hopefully you can get some stress-relief and communication channels can open up?

you did see Drs about the pain etc with sex and all right?
no answers I take it?
