Ive never had any problems with my CAH. I have been maintained perfectly my whole life. I didn't even believe i had any medical problems & could never figure out why i was taking medicine when i was younger. I always thought the doctors were making big deal out of nothing. No one ever explained what wrong with me. I went my whole life thinking i was fine & normal & then suddenly i found out by accident i wasn't normal at all. Like i said, ive never told anyone about my surgeries, not my friends, cousins, aunts, not even my own sister. (so i could i ever tell a guy) The thought of having to explain this to someone actually frightens me & makes me sick to my stomach.
No one knows but me & my parents, who never bothered to tell me. There is no way i could tell a guy ever, so i just avoid them b/c i know sex will eventually come up in the conversation & i'm not willing to dicuss my problems about why i can't & don't want to have or dicuss sex. The worst part is finding out this later in life, when i'm suppose to be looking for someone to spend life with. Instead i'm avoiding guys while everyone else i know is engaged, married, & haivng kids.
I wish i knew what to do but i don't. I don't feel a therapist would be any help either, b/c they are just gonna say "If someone really loves you it won't matter" which i know is bunch of crap. I wish i could be as strong as other people on here but the older i get the worse i feel. I just don't how anyone on here is able to find a guy that they are willing to dicuss this with & that doesn't get totally freaked out.
i'm cute, have a great personality, & i'm in shape & have played sports my whole life. but i will always have this deep dark secret to carry around with me my whole life.
