Unexpected unhappiness

She says she is unhappy for no reason. She cries for no reason. Lost her smile. No deep sleep. No proper dreaming pattern. No interest in life. She has been trying yoga and different types of hobbies to keep her busy. But nothing is actually helping her. No particular problem in life. She has a good job. A good love life. Loving and well to do parents. Seeking psychiatric help.

OCD link w/ Masturbation or not guilt

Explain if the following scenario is masturbation or not: I have an almost-daily habit where I hug and kiss my pillow very passionately, imagining it as my girlfriend — the girl I deeply wished to be with. While doing this, I get emotionally involved, like I'm making out with her. I don't touch my genitals directly or rub them against the pillow, but I do get an erection, and it starts throbbing during the process. Sometimes, I pull back the foreskin slightly to check, and I notice pre-cum has come out. At that point, I stopped. This pattern repeats daily, and I’m starting to feel like I might be masturbating, even though I’m not stimulating myself with my hands or the pillow. Back in the days when I used to masturbate,I used to hump the bed. But it's been 2 years now. There's more to do in life other than this cheap stuff. I'm trying to get hold of one habit that makes me over generalise.

Sexual desire

I am 28 years old. We didn't have sex until three months after we got married because I was scared about it. We tried a lot of time, but it was very difficult for me to insert it and it was very painful, so I kept pushing him away.I had a love marriage. I used to get some lubrication when I made love. But now it doesn't happen. I got pregnant because we had sex in pain and now I have an 11-month-old baby. Even after I delivered, I haven't had sex yet. It hurts a lot if we try to penetrate.After that i tried to have sex but I didn't feel anything except pain. I didn't have any sexual desire.
