The dark secret of the orgasm; Why do we feel sad after sex?

The common perception in popular culture and the media is that the end of a sexual relationship or an orgasmic experience is always accompanied by a feeling of liberation, deep relaxation and emotional closeness. But for millions of people around the world, the reality is exactly the opposite of this image: a few seconds after the peak of sexual pleasure, suddenly there is a heavy feeling of emptiness, crying, extreme boredom or even an unpleasant feeling towards yourself and your partner.

If you have experienced such a situation, you are not alone and you are not suffering from "moral deviation" or "psychological damage". Medical science has a specific and reliable name for this condition: dysphoria or boredom after sex.
