    I have that to. I housebound and have to have home visits which can only be female. This makes getting help more complicated and complexed due to resources

    Please see a therapist. This is serious if not treated.

    Sorry read last post thought person was commenting to me just realised it was yours. She is right. Therapy may not cure your fear but help your coping mechanisms. You should have therapy and you can request a female. I am housebound so had to wait longer. But if you can go out of your house with support there is more increase in availability. Good luck and give it a try.
