I blush whenever sexual topics come up in conversation.
I am afraid people will make judgements on me based on this.
For example, one time I was in a group of people who were discussing recent pedophilia scandals and I began blushing heavily.
After every occasion like this I worry that people will assume something about me, like that I'm a pervert or something.
I am on medication for social anxiety, but this is something that has never subsided. What can I do?
welp, i'm glad i'm not the only one. it's very embarassing though. i wish i could stop it. i also have no idea where this is coming from. i don't have a problem with sex in general.

OP here. Me too. I am indifferent to sex when I'm alone. I am not actually prudish at all.
I think it's the fear of blushing that causes me to blush.

>I think it's the fear of blushing that causes me to blush.
i'm not even sure if it's that in my case. i sometimes even forget that i blush easily. and then it catches me like a hot wave. i also blush when the topic isn't even about me. what medication do you have?

I am on SNRIs, a very low dose. I have been coming off them recently. When I was on a higher dose, the blushing was less severe.

why do you stop them?
>>17343659
Because it's an inconvenience to take them, even though I noticed some good results. I just wish I didn't need them.
Similarly, I feel repulsed and think less of people who openly talk about sex. Specifically the words fuck, pussy, and cum I think are just disgusting

See, I'm not offended or disgusted, I just can't help but blush.
