Sex Withdrawals: What the What?
So let me just get down to the nitty gritty. My boyfriend and I have sex A LOT. And, when it's that "time of the month," we still manage to do third base stuff. I've been taking a summer class to keep myself busy and I was supposed to be studying for my midterm so I didn't get to see him for a whole week. By Day 2, I had become quite antsy and unable to sleep or study--wanting to rearrange my room and clean everything, even though nothing needed to be cleaned. Soon after, I found myself baking cupcakes and sitting there making intricate designs. I continued to have this overwhelming need to clean and fix things around the house. Once I ran out of things to clean and fix and bake, I turned to cooking. I spent 2 hours straight cooking everything in my fridge and I wasn't even hungry--at all. By that point, I was going crazy and I still didn't know what was wrong with me. I even got to the point where I started drawing, but once I got distracted from that, I was unmotivated to start again.
Then, as I was texting with one of my friends, it finally clicked. I was having sex withdrawals. Around that same time, I was still complaining to my boyfriend that I couldn't stay still, but I hadn't said anything about my theory, and he was like, "yeah, you're having withdrawals." The thing was, it didn't even occur to me that I was missing it. But then I realized that, since it was the summertime and we had so much extra time on our hands, we started doing it more frequently and I guess I had gotten used to the pattern.
I never thought I would be such a sex fiend, but apparently I'm addicted. I've heard other people tell stories of people who needed to have sex to function and I used to think it was hilarious and crazy, but I guess because I'm with someone I have amazing sexual chemistry with (not to mention he treats me remarkably and we're compatible on so many other levels) I've become one of those people.
So has anyone else suffered from sex withdrawal or heard about it and thought it was bologna?

That's why women have battery powered substitutes.
Your brain increases the production of endorphins.. the happy neurotransmitters when you orgasm. So it's no wonder you're having withdrawals. It's the same with exercise. If you exercise a lot, you become addicted to it.
It's okay though. It's a good thing to have an active sexual lifestyle. You're probably one of the lucky people who get to do it with someone you love as well..
@WhenHateIsTheOnlyOption@xanga - What she said.
i def hear ya- they say addict we say needs!! lol
there is such thing as sex withdrawals. i'm sure everyone goes thru it.
@WhenHateIsTheOnlyOption@xanga - This.
But, I have to admit, as soon as I finished this post, all I could think about was: "Myyyyy bologna has a first name.."
Wow >.>
I can go without it, and I only crave it once in a while. Maybe it's 'cuz I've never had amazing sex to begin with. :(
Only moderately. Thank god for porn, my imagination, and both my hands. (Yeah, I'm a switch hitter). Oh, and being morally questionable enough to maintain fuck buddies.
I've been having withdrawals for a week.
I'm on the verge of explosive anger.
I look forward to the end of this torture though; angry, primal, rough sex = win
I went through the same thing many many year ago.. I guess you just have to learn to cope..
This used to happen to me a lot when I was with my ex. He wouldn't want to do it very often, so I would go crazy. It was once a week we'd do it. I would get mad and bitchy and we would not get along so well. Once we started to argue and stuff I knew it was time to convince him to do it, instead of being so nervous about people being home.
I get like that too. I don't consider myself an addict at all though. I just get really moody after not having sex for about..5-7 days. But I've been with the same person for 5 years and I honestly the more we do it, the more I want it. Plus I am 21 and I am naturally a very sexual person. So of course it would make someone like me at least somewhat irritated after a week or so.
GOT SOME HORNY ASS PEOPLE UP IN THIS BITCH... MUST SUCK TO BE YOU...
@Neurotically_Mine@xanga - Amen to that
The only thing I can say is that when I go for a long period of not having sex, then I'll have lots of sexual dreams. It's like my body starts to try to induce masturbation while I sleep.
Oh geez. I know sex withdrawls. They are horrible. When me and my GF started having sex, and got good at it, it became like our new toy. It was summer, and we had all kinds of time, so we did it all of the time. Fun part was, sometimes she wanted it more then me. Which, when you're a guy, is a nice feeling. lol Then at some point, she started losing interest. I didn't of course. Then we kind of took a break from each other for a couple months and I was pulling my hair out, but I started to get used to it. Now we're back together and I'm so happy. But we did it once, and now she's out of town for a week or so and I'm back to losing it again. lol
I get so cranky it scares my boyfriend away. But, the thing is, I don't realize this until I tell myself the sex deprivation is WHY I'm cranky...I eventually get over it, haha. Well, I have to, because if I keep scaring my boyfriend away that means the withdrawals can't be remedied.
It happens... it suckss
Omg if I go longer than a week or 2 without sex I turn into a maniac. I become antsy, irritable and just overall cranky and frustrated. And at least for me, doing it myself just doesnt cut it. I'm glad theres someone else out there like me!
I don't know if I have sex withdrawals, but I do have boyfriend withdrawals. He's my best friend. :)
Lol, my friend goes through this a lot.
this year i had the worst fucking sex withdraw for months. my man lives hundred of miles away. and i was basically useless because that's all i thought about.
it did not matter how much i attended to my lady bits or how many naughty things i read, it would not go away. all i thought about for months, mind you, was sex.
seriously, the worst.
@lagnolalia@xanga - Do you?
@WhenHateIsTheOnlyOption@xanga - I just about fell off the couch laughing... That was my first thought... But I needed a good laugh this morning!!
