I dealt with some sexual trauma as a young child and I also am bi. I felt the need to hide my sexuality and try to be straight for a long time. I never really sought out for sexual or romantic relationships in high school. If I liked someone, it was usually a man and it was because I thought I had to like him. I would masturbate, but not often and mainly because I was either bored or stressed.

I came out in my senior year, a few months after Covid started. Covid brought up a lot about my sexuality. I still haven't explored with anyone romantically or sexually except for online. I've taken the time to explore more of my body and figure out how I like to pleasure myself, but now it feels like I can't stop thinking about sex. I don't masturbate everyday, but it is very often. It could just be a change in libido and my mental health has changed, or my mindset has changed. Or it could be just a change in hormones.
