Summary

Hello, friends! Huge apologies - the website is currently down. I hope that it is up again soon! In this episode, I answer the following questions:

  • I dissociate whenever I try to talk about my feelings. How can I overcome this?
  • Bad things seem to happen after I masturbate. Am I causing bad things to happen?

As always, you can send me questions to duffthepsych@gmail.com and find the show notes for this episode at http://duffthepsych.com/episode343 (once the website is back up).

encourage you to be brave in consuming difficult content but also respect and

recognize your limitations. So please use your best judgment. I will never be

offended if you need to skip a question or an episode entirely,

but feel free to feel it out, check out the episode and just see what happens. If you need to skip, that's okay, but you know, feel free to give it a shot first.
