Haphephobia

Hey NS. I just was curious if anyone out there, like me is struggling with Haphephobia. For those of you that don't know haphephobia is the fear of touching other people. It's an irrational fear and I know it is, I just can't get over it. I've never heard of anyone other then my self with this so if theres anyone out there it'd be comforting to know someone knows what i'm going through. Thanks.

PS, I searchbarred and hope this isn't a repost.

I'm the opposite if I don't know or don't trust you and you touch me I will literally tear up and sometimes can't hold my composure

Sorry I might be reading your reply wrong, but that's the same with me. Except with me it's if anyone touches me (even my own parents) I feel extremely nervous and scared. After someone touches me, even bumps into me it's like I can still feel it for like, the next 15 minutes.

I dislike being touched by people unless i know them. Il'l wash my hands after i shake someones hand as soon as possible. I'm not a germaphobe but people are gross.

Honestly this is gonna sound weird. But when I see a hot or beautiful girl I just enjoy looking at her and admiring her beauty. I know, i'm only 16 but I've had this all my life. I've never had a girlfriend or kissed anyone if that matters.
