Living with an intimacy anorexic can be deeply challenging, as they often withhold emotional, spiritual, and sexual intimacy from their partner. The pain and loneliness from this lack of love can last for years or even decades. If you’re experiencing this neglect, you’re most likely wondering, “How do I effectively communicate this to them and hopefully initiate change?” In this video, psychologist Dr. Doug Weiss offers practical advice on how to discuss intimacy anorexia with your spouse and shares helpful resources to help both of you start the healing process and restore the relationship.
