Now this is a common coping mechanism after trauma, especially sexual assault. Some women will hide behind it saying they’re just “having fun” or it’s a “hoe phase” but in reality, they have no concept of what’s acceptable or not. What does it look like you may ask?

1) Excessive time is consumed fantasizing or engaging in sexual behavior (masturbation, porn, sex).

2) Engaging in sexual behavior while disregarding the risk for physical or emotional harm to self or others.

3) Engaging because of urges and or behavior in response to dysphoric mood states (anxiety, depression, boredom, irritability).

This is not only detrimental to the woman itself but it’s also a breeding ground for lvm/nvm who only want one thing. This is why it’s important to do self work and heal any open wounds. I shared this so some woman out there reading this could recognize herself and want to level up from this.

Please feel free to share any tips or stories.
