Rare Sexual Disorder Plagues Women
 

They smirked and giggled. There was even a touch of envy as the interns gaped at their patient. As bizarre as it seems, though, the story line is based loosely on a real though rare disorder called persistent sexual arousal syndrome, or PSAS. A 2001 study published in the Journal of Sex and Marital Therapy was the first to identify it, citing "persistent feelings of sexual arousal in the absence of sexual desire" that are "intrusive and unwanted." Since that study, however, word has been very slow to get around.

Nancy Brown said her life was devastated about six years ago by the onset of unrelenting, unwanted, sexual arousal.

"It was so intense I couldn't concentrate on anything else ? only the desire to have sex with someone who isn't there," she said.

Nothing relieved the symptoms. Nancy says she turned over all the household chores to her husband, Glen Brown, and fell into a deep depression.

"I was embarrassed, I felt shame. And there's no help. There's nothing," she added.

Sleepless for nights on end, she said, her symptoms even brought her to the brink of suicide. "I told him that he didn't deserve this, my kids didn't deserve it, they didn't deserve to live this way and I couldn't go on with it anymore," she said.

Heather Dearmon understands Brown's desperation. She had just gotten married and was pregnant with her son when symptoms of PSAS began for her.

"I woke up one morning, and I just felt these strange sensations," she said.

Though she had no sexual desire, she had to bring on an orgasm to get any relief from the constant pressure. But relief didn't last.


Don't know if I would be happy to have something like that or be terrified to have a real good one in front of a family member lol

Sounds like a fucked up condition to have when u really think about it.

Oh shit.. so that's what was wrong with me!

Seriously though.. that's sad. =\ I would hate to be like that =|

I wonder if they have a convention for women with this disorder and I wonder where it would be held and if I would get thrown out for trying to attend? :)

How did I know you were going to say something like that? lol. It would be a messed up disorder to have. It would be real hard to go do anything like that.

are you selling some thing, or just passing to other users
