What is Aphenphosmphobia?
The fear of intimacy is known as Aphenphosmphobia (which is the fear of being touched).
As the name indicates, the person suffering from the fear of phobias dreads contact, emotional bonds, and potentially even love. This obviously has a massively detrimental impact on their relationships: with significant others, family, and friends. This phobia can have a hugely negative effect on a person's life, sabotaging relationships and contributing to overall sadness or insecurity.

Interesting Fact:
Kelly Osbourne is reported to suffer from Aphenphosmphobia.
Aphenphosmphobia Causes:
Abandonment and engulfment are the two main factors that are likely to cause Aphenphosmphobia. The sufferer fears having a partner believing they will eventually leave. (In case of the fear of engulfment, the individual dreads ‘losing his/her individuality’ owing to the relationship).
Generally speaking, the roots of the phobia are embedded in childhood, although painful romantic relationships in adulthood can also lead to such a phobia. As a result, the phobic tends to draw in a partner towards oneself only to eventually push him/her (the partner) away.

Aphenphosmphobia Symptoms:
Intense phobic reactions can include physical pain, tightness in the chest, trouble breathing, and increased heart rate. This is all due to the fight or flight response being triggered due to any hint of intimacy.

Hypnotherapy is so effective with phobias because it tackles the underlying trigger of the phobia within the subconscious. Once a person has access to their subconscious they can eliminate their conditioned response to the stimulus. So instead of treating just the symptoms, hypnotherapy can heal the source for a lasting result. The best part about hypnotherapy and phobias is that often it only takes one session to completely get over the phobia so you do not have to spend a lot of money on continual treatment. The NHS also promotes hypnotherapy as an effective treatment for phobias.
