Like, if I saw a naked stranger, I would feel uncomfortable and embarrassed for that person. But doctors see naked bodies all day long and so a boob is just a boob, so to speak. I'm not saying you or your issues are a boob!
T's are the same way. Only the nakedness is our secrets and our emotions.

Unlike PJ, I actually think your issues are definitely a boob!
I totally get it. I have had to send my T anxious emails begging her to reassure me that I wasn't going to die of awkwardness and that she didn't hate me and didn't feel that it was way, way TMI. Luckily, she and I both appear to have lived through it. So far. Of course it could come back and bite me in the butt at any point. So you never really know. My advice here: remain vigilant and inspect your butt every day for bite marks.
