    I'm scared of the female genitals. I'm afraid of the split labia, this has gotten so bad that I cannot change my little girl's diaper when her mother is at work, since I stay home with her. I feel like I will hurt the baby if I try to wipe her during diaper change. I'm also scared of my wife's, and because of this, she laughs at me. I just managed to get intimate with her once, and produced our little girl. IOther than that, I have not been intimate with her anymore. We only kiss and hug. I feel less like a man. How can I get over this phobia?? Just the looks of a woman's genitals makes me afraid. I AM A HETEROSEXUAL MALE though.

    Breakfast: - Healthy cereal mixed with fruit - A glass of milk Lunch: - Veggies and dip - Fruit salad Dinner: - Meat with cooked vegetables and I drink water through-out the day. Is there anything I should add to my diet? I also switch it up and have crackers and cheese with my lunch or have toast for breakfast. And sometimes have yogurt as a snack. Ive been eating like this for 2 weeks now and I just want to be clear that it's infact healthy. Oh, and to add sometimes I have salad :)

    I looked up 'pms' and it has something to do with females monthly I guess, but I don't really understand what this expression means: "It's like they have pms 24/7" Someone used this to describe a co-worker of mine... Does this mean...they have bloating problems or something....?
  • I really need help with anxiety?

    Mental Health - 23 hours ago

    Additional Details

    I've been suffering from anxiety for years. It was mostly generalized anxiety. During 2008, I got so much more worse, and I didn't know what to do. On june of 2009, I saw a psychiatrist, which prescribed me prozac. In august, I developed severe depression from the anxiety which my prozac has now has done a great job. I was given zyprexa, risperdal, propranolol, cogentin, clonazepam, which were all useless. I have gotten paranoia, and so now I'm on prozac, and seroquel xr. My anxiety has only improved a bit and haven't gotten much better. I feel alone, anxious, and hopeless. I don't know what to do anymore. My appointment with my psychiatrist in in early march. I've cut myself in the past, because I've felt so bad. I feel like I've lost my personality. When will it end?
