i went to a doctor and he told me it was because i was molested as a child that is such bs i wanted to kick him right in his groin, i wanted to put me on anatriptlin its a real stong cyc med that is used in many hospitals for people with mental illness, i would really like to let someone know about that, these doctors dont know crap because they dont walk in our shoes so they dont know what we are feeling, they think they know it all and they dont, try not having sex for 8 month it reallsy sucks and i cant go out places and do things cause i hurt its hard for me to work as well,

Well, you may not ever get back to normal, hon.  But hopefully you can get back to a state when you're not hurting so badly. 
 
You're too young to have to not be given pain relief.  That's the bottom line.  And if you can take the pain relief at the times when you want to do the things that are physical, then you should be able to enjoy some of them again. 
 
And if the deep massage can indeed break loose some of the adhesions and scar tissue, then that could lead to a longer term benefit.  You will just have to see. 
 
Your doctor is right not to operate though.  Another operation would just cause more scar tissue to form and more adhesions.  It would worsen your problem.  Surgery is not always the answer. 
 
Hugs and lots of love,
 
Dan
