I dressed regularly in my teens and early 20s. It stopped after I got married when children came on the scene. However in 2011 it came back with a vengeance after my father passed away. It gave me comfort , relaxation and stress relief when I needed it most. It resulted in me being careless, stash being found and an enforced purge at the request of my unaccepting wife. My mother passed in 2020 which resulted in another desire to dress and the cycle repeating itself A close friend of mine died suddenly and unexpectedly a month ago. This has had the opposite effect. I have lost interest completely and have no desire to dress at all . I have had time to reflect and like Ameejo has pointed out in another post, decided to wind things down . I realise my wife of 31 years and family are more important than my desire to CD. I wonder have bereavements affected anyone elses desire to CD or not? I know from past experience the desire can come back . So I dont rule it out altogether
