Understanding Haphephobia: Symptoms, Causes, and Treatment

Haphephobia is the intense and irrational fear of being touched. People with this phobia may feel extreme anxiety, discomfort, or even panic at the thought of physical contact, including handshakes, hugs, or accidental brushes in a crowd. This fear is often rooted in past trauma, such as abuse or assault, but can also be linked to conditions like sensory processing disorders or social anxiety. It can severely impact daily life, making relationships, medical care, or social interactions difficult
