Understanding the Journey of Relationships and Intimacy. 

Eeach individual moves at their own pace when it comes to relationships and sex. Some people may have had several relationships, while others may not have as much experience. It's important to remember that there's no right or wrong amount of experience to have, and there's no set timeline you need to follow. If you don't have much experience in relationships or sex, that's completely okay.

Don't let societal pressures or comparisons to others make you feel embarrassed or ashamed. Your experiences, or lack thereof, do not define you. Everything happens in its own time, and it's essential to allow yourself to move at a pace that feels right and comfortable for you.

Therapy: A Common and Beneficial Practice

Therapy is a practice that many people engage in, often more frequently than they see their own family members. If you find yourself visiting your therapist more often than your cousin, don't be ashamed. Mental health is a significant aspect of overall well-being, and seeking help to manage is nothing to be embarrassed about. In fact, it's much more common than you might think. Unfortunately, the stigma surrounding therapy often prevents people from talking about it openly, which can make it seem like fewer people are in therapy than actually are. Remember, taking care of your mental health is not a sign of weakness; it's a sign of strength. It shows that you're taking control of your well-being and doing what's necessary to maintain it.

Embracing Your Unique Journey

Whether it's your experience with relationships and intimacy, your mental health journey, or any other aspect of your life, remember: don't be ashamed. Your journey is uniquely yours, and it's something to be proud of, not embarrassed by. Everyone moves at their own pace, and the experiences you've had or haven't had are all part of your personal journey. Comparing yourself to others can only lead to feelings of inadequacy and dissatisfaction. Instead, focus on embracing your own path and understanding that you're exactly where you're supposed to be in your journey.
