Fear of people touching me?

Question

I have this fear about people getting close to my neck. I shudder involuntarily when someone gets close to my neck and I have images in my head of being bitten or having my neck slashed open. And whenever I watch a vampire movie or a movie with someone getting their neck cut open, I grab my neck and wince. And if someone tries to kiss my neck, I have to push them away. Is that very odd?

Answer 1

people have all sorts of fears. don't worry about it. i have a fear of seaweed. just lay off the vamp movies and stay calm.

Answer 2

Ya, its slightly odd.

Do you have a partner? If so, then think about him 24 * 7. Be romantic to him and stop watching those vampire movies.

This will heal you up. I'm sure.

Answer 3

Yeah I have a weird fear too. I'm am deathly afraid of bugs, but I'm even more fearful at the thought of killing one. You can imagine that this puts me in a weird place.

If I were you I would start small and let someone you completely trust get close to your neck. When you comfortable with that, ask other people you know well to help you out with your fear. Eventually, you won't even care that someone is that close to you at all.

EDIT: In my opinion, you don't need a bunch of drugs to make yourself feel better. Just learn to cope with the help of friends and you will be fine.

Answer 4

it's ok don't watch those movies

Answer 5

Fear of people touching is different from feeling of constriction and choking, or not liking anything tight around or suffocation on, and other kinds of feelings around the neck.  In such people, usually, there will be dreams of snakes too.  In some it is an indication of claustrophobia.  The indicated medicine in homeo is Lachesis in higher potencies of 200 and above one dose.  If it is just a fear of being touched it would be Arnica 30.  When Lachesis is indicated, mental states of Libido are also indicated or irregular menstruations are physical symptoms.  There could also be tonsilities present in such cases. Purple colouration of the tongue or any other parts of the body is yet another indication.  The person could also be jealous and suspicious.  This is very common with many people particulary with females.  Fear of death is another cause.  In such cases Aconitum Napillus 30 a few doses upto three doses or upto three days normally cures the person.  Low blood pressure also gives similar sensation.  Remedial measures then would be to see that the pressure is in place and ischemtic disorders if any addressed.   with best wishes.
