This is just a guess on my part, Muffled, but I'm guessing you used to disassociate during sex or somehow divorce yourself from it. And I think you've gotten healthier, which makes the disassociation less available as a coping mechanism. I think this because that's what is happening to me with the gynecological exams. They were never comfortable, but I was able to tolerate them. Now I turn into a screaming baby. Go figure.
It's also possible that you're just way more in touch with your feelings now than you used to be. Again, part of becoming healthier. Sucks, doesn't it?
