In Victorian times women of a 'nervous' disposition were discreetly deemed not to be getting enough sex, and were sent to special 'doctors' who met their needs, shall we say. They would suddenly perk up, develop a new spring in their step, shed the pounds and have a permanent rosy flush to their cheeks. What an enlightened era! Such a sad decline in the health service in recent decades
Not sure if that was the case in Victorian England, most women apart from prostitutes considered sex to be "dirty" or something a "lady" didnt do (we both know its not true, but appearances were everything)..I think a prescription of laudanum was probably the order of the day to help with the nerves!
As to the OP..do what comes natural and if that doesnt work..try doing something that comes unatural!
