ORIGINAL: canadamike222 that was my therapists reaction :( does anyone understand what i mean? If you do not have a kink-friendly therapist, chances are you will get viewed as FUBAR (fucked up beyond all repair) and referred to a psychiatrist to get prescribed meds. Unfortunately, psychiatrists do not engage in much talk therapy (psychoanalysts do, but not psychiatrists), and the purpose of psychotropic drugs is to manage symptoms which interfere with your daily functioning like having an anxiety disorder, panic attacks, extreme mood swings, your recent feelings of depression, etc. To clarify, you did not meet a domme, as in go out on a lunch or dinner date. You felt guilty after having enjoyed your ostensibly paid session with a dominatrix. Without specific details of what transpired and without knowing more about you personally, it is hard to conclude what happened. It is possible that this experience pushed a PTSD trigger. It is advisable for you to stay away from BDSM until you can get yourself sorted out. Seeking therapy is commendable, but if you are having gender-identity/masculinity crisis issues, you may benefit from the fellowship of group therapy where you will not feel so isolated. Make sure to run this by your therapist, who is probably feeling too overwhelmed by the complexity of your case. Best of Luck, Lisa & Cub
