From Freak to Fizzle: My Sex Drive Saga

Hey pleasure seekers, I know it’s been a while! Life’s been crazy—running my businesses and to be honest, this year’s been a bit rough. I went through a breakup (yes, another one) and had some mental health struggles, along with some family drama. But I’m finally feeling like me again and back to writing… which leads me to today’s topic: sex drive!

I’ve always had a high sex drive, and I’ve always been the ‘sex pest’ in most of my relationships (yes, like a teenage boy who’s just discovered his, ahem, parts 😂). Up until my last relationship, I often got sex-shamed for my desires and kinks, but my most recent ex was a dream. A 3-year situationship (yes, I know... we’ll skip the red flags), where I was head over heels in love and had finally found someone who matched my freak! And then it all fell apart, taking my sex drive with it.

This was a first for me. I went from getting myself off three times a day to zero interest in anything sexual. It gave me a whole new level of empathy for friends who’ve gone through rough times—family loss, postpartum struggles, all of it. I hadn’t understood until now. My mind was a mess, and so was my body. It took months to feel anything again, mentally or physically.

But now that I’m feeling better, my sex drive is back, and it's like my body is in overdrive again! I’m practically ready to jump the bones of everyone I walk past, haha. Over the next week, I’ll be diving more into sex drive and what affects it, but for now, I just wanted to say—I’m back, baby! Stay tuned for more.
