Depression & Sex Drive?

[Blue]

Sex does release a chemical, endorphins I think, which can produce a better mood for a short period of time.

Yes it does, in fact it is possible to get a person so high on endorphins, just from sexual stimulation and pleasure that they actually loose themselves. They start interpreting even severe pain as pleasure and, wanting to keep going even if doing so would cause them harm.

Afterwards, they need a partner that knows how to bring them down slowly and safely, or it can be a nasty crash.

I call that experience subspace, it's amazing with a partner that knows how to do it, and, most importantly, knows proper aftercare is a MUST.

Even the small taste of that high we all experience isn't something we'd willingly loose over medications, especially.
