Hello Dr Betty,
I have a bit of a sprawling question, and I'm hoping you can help. I am in my late 20s, female, and have been sexually active for a long time.
My problem is that for the past 6 months, during sex and intimate contact with my current partner, I have been getting panic attacks and absolute loss of confidence. The episodes are sudden and unpredictable, one day I may be comfortable and happy to give a blowjob, the next day I might feel like I don't know how to even begin and the idea freaks me out entirely! It is playing havoc with my confidence levels and the last few times its happened I've ended up sobbing because I feel so annoyed and stupid and at the same time filled with fear.
