I'm a young woman who suffers from gymnophobia, an intense and overwhelming fear of being seen naked.
I have tuberous breasts and as a result have developed a crippling fear of being naked in front of another person. To me they are hideous and shameful, and I would rather cut all ties with a friend or boyfriend than have them see me naked.
I avoid mirrors and cover myself when I am naked to shower or bathe, even when no one is home and the door is locked, because I usually get upset and start to cry when I look at myself.
I am wondering if anyone else has this condition and what they do about it, but general support would also be nice. Thanks.
