Can a lack of compassionate physical intimacy lead to madness in adults?

We seem to see that:

Uncompassionate physical intimacy in the cases of rape and incest also result in psychosis.

Substitutes in the form of massage are unsatisfactory long term as it is not heartfelt.

Marriages that are sexless break down into divorce.

Self love alone is inadequate

I think there needs to be a minimum level required to sustain sanity.

Your priests being pedos is the consequence of cultural eff ups not pushing hard against those who abuse children.

Many monks never abuse.
