Is sex very important to mental health?!
Question: after being sexually abused..... sex is not important to me, in fact sex is harmful to my mental health. It only triggers flashbacks. And I am so sick of people saying get over it. You don't just get over it. I have been working with therapist for over 10 years now, and yet hit the topic because I am too ashamed of it and fear to talk about it too much, fearing more flashbacks and the fear..... Comments about a day without sex is life with out sunshine.... well the world isn't always sunshine. there are rainy days and snowy days when the sun doesn't shine.
men and women think differently about sex...... most men can have sex with out having feeling involved, many (yes I said many not all) women have emotions involved when they have sex.

You should ask "Is mental health important to sex?".
I am sure you know the answer, but if you would like to find out, then try not doing it for 40days like that movie with josh hartnett

I know first hand that celibacy makes me b*tchy
no,
all guys will say yes.
lol
i guess it's different with everyone
I think so, yes. It's tied in with the need to love and be loved, and the need to connect with others.
And it's also good for your own self-esteem.
All around, sex is great!
Only somewhat. The emotional bond that usualy comes along with it and it's ability to destress you are it's biggest benifits.
yes. There's been a million studies about the positive mental and physical affects of sex.
Not at all. Unless you got the cold turkey.
It depends on where sex is in your priorities...if you are craving and denying yourself... well, that could present problems... If you don't need it and don't want it, then it shouldn't matter to you... it's an individual thing, like anything else in mental health... it's more of a behavioral health issue anyway...
NO!
i DONT HAVE SEX.
AND iM MENTALY & PHYSiCALY HEALTHY!
yes uf course without this thing a human can not live so dont be feel shame
There's an old saying for married people. "if your sex life is wonderful, that part of life only accounts for 10% of your happy marriage. However if your sex life is bad, that part of life accounts for 90% of your unhappy marriage" Good Luck
Yes. If the man is sexually satisfied he is Free to think properly.
mental health on New years eve is a no, no.
Sex is a must!
no it is not. It helps and makes you feel better but you are not a reject or something just for not wanting or pursuing sex. Also many people prefer to live a clean life. As innocence is perfection. But sex or no sex is your choice and anyone can live perfectly happy with or without it unless the person obseses over it.
that would certainly explain my anger issues and overall poor state of mind.
According to Maslow, it is fundamental
I think sex, moreso to mental health, is important to a healthy loving RELATIONSHIP. Its more important to the fact that you bond with the person you love (that's how it should be anyway.)
