• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

Shy about Breasts

I find myself very self-conscious about women's breasts. I get very timid around women because I fear that if I relax, I might stare at their breasts and might be humiliated or treated cruelly. I wish I didn't get so shy, and I wish I was more happy and relaxed.

I guess I am just obsessed with breasts. I like them, but they make me scared. I don't quite know what to do to get rid of this neurotic anxiety. Perhaps I should practice staring until I get busted and don't feel so frightened at the thought of embarassment? Perhaps I should get a girlfriend and get a lot of intense exposure therapy? What kind of exposure therapy would help best?

I'm stumped. Anybody have a suggestion?

Concentrate on their eyes and pay attention to what they say. Looking at breast is reducing that precious creation of God's into a object. You and that girl are worth so much more then the temporary desire of sex. See breast, touching breast, or whatever does not sustain your existence. I suggest that when you think of a sexual desire that maybe you should try singing a song instead.

it's very natural for a young man to be interested in women's breasts.
it's the unknown and he is curisous about them .

maybe you should read some information about the anatomy of the female body, from a scientific point of view. you will understand the role and the function of the female body better and it will not look so strange anymore.

Most guys are very attracted to female breasts. Just relax more. You are not unusual. There are plenty of women who don't mind that interest either, and can enjoy the attention.

Perhaps you are uncomfortable with your sexuality, and need to think through a few issues about what it means to be a sexual person. We all need to be at ease with this important aspect of our humanness.

PM me if you have any specific persoanl questions.
