View Full Version : I Am Freaking the Fuck Out. Help.

Any help from anyone is truly appreciated. I'll start by saying that.

Okay, so you know how everyone has their own little weird quirk that not many other people have? It could be that they're afraid of dogs or that they can't swim and are afraid of water, or some other little weird thing like that. Well my little quirk is privacy. I need it. I can't be exposed to anyone except for my girlfriend who is thousands of miles away in Europe. So in reality there is not ONE person in this country that I'd be cool with showing my junk to. Sorry if I got a little to descriptive there...

Anyway, here's my problem: I have a physical next week on Monday for sports. I've never had a physical before even though I'm turning 16 in 2 months. I mean sure, I've had "check-ups" when I was like 10, but they basically only look down your boxers there at the very worst. Here, I'm going to have some stranger feeling my junk and shit. It could be worse and my parents could be in the room which they won't be due to the fact that I won't do jack shit until they leave and it's just me and the doctor. Part of me knows that it's a good idea for me to get this physical, but to be honest, the other part of me wants to shove a 12 gauge down that part of me's throat.

I guess what I'm saying is that I need help. Advice. Pointers. ANYTHING. Fuck it. Buy me Mountain Dew and we'll be cool. Lol that rhyme was on accident. Seriously though. I am not okay. Help ME. :(

My best advice is to try to be as calm as possible and not think about it. Just think about it, the doctor has probably seen more cocks in his lifetime than most people, and it's all just for you to be safe and to prevent you from possibly injuring yourself (further). If you really feel uncomfortable, try discussing with him to where you can somehow examine yourself and report the results back to him.

The more you experience something, the less you'll be likely to a serious reaction to it. Just try to distract yourself, and to avoid thinking about it.

To be honest, I don't think anyone likes getting physicals, but it is just something you do. It's good to occasionally have a professional check everything out and make sure it's all working properly, even though I have no doubt it is.

There is not much else I can say other than it's not as bad as you think it is. They do it everyday, and it's not like they're going to make a big deal of it, and you only have to do it a couple times a year.

Just so you know what to expect. What they did for me last year and this year is just put a finger on your nuts and have you cough. They know it feels uncomfortable to some. Like last year the guy let me only expose my nuts, this year however they had me show everything. It usually last for like 30 seconds. Tbh I was kinda freaked out by it but once it was over, it wasn't that bad. Advice... I guess ask to only expose what you need to or try to let it slide. I mean just imagine in 30 years when you have to get a prostate exam. That i find embarrassing. Also I they have your parents leave before they do it.

Tbh i wouldn't worry about it, i'd agree with asking your parents to leave, but as far as the stranger part, he is a doctor he sees loads of people in loads of different ways i'm sure you'll be fine

Its not a big deal, really. I HAD TO HAVE ONE WITH MY MOM AND BROTHER IN THE ROOM (they turned around). I think you'll be fine.

Well the best I can figure is if you don't feel comfortable having a doctor do your testicular exams, do one yourself at home. I've been doing them since I was 14, and then when you go to the doctor you could just tell them if "everything" feels alright. Since I am not allowed to tell you how, you can find how to preform a " self-testicular" exam online.

Firstly, you are not alone in that feeling. I will start off by saying that whilst some boys don't mind others do ask that parents (especially mothers) go out of the room, and it may be worth mentioning that to her beforehand (and most mothers would be quite happy to give you that privacy during those few minutes.
Secondly, the doctor will have done this many times before. His primary concern is to check that everything is OK down there. It is also your chance to ask any questions (if you feel you have any issues such as a tight foreskin). Provided there's nothing untoward, it should only last for a minute or so. It may feel like ages. If necessary, pick a corner of the room with your eyes and just focus on that as a distraction, and the doctor will complete what he needs to do.
Finally, if you do feel like you're getting an erection, just let it happen. You will not be the first to get one in this situation, and will not be the last. The Doctor will have seen these many times before, so is not an issue. It will be over before you know it

Just think of it as a few minutes of your life, then it's over.
I'm the same as you about being very sensitive about people seeing me (even though i have nothing to hide) so much so that i can't use a urinal.
I'm sure it's not just me and you in the whole of the country who are like this.
So you should just go in calmly and think of it as a few minutes of your life.
Anyway, it's better to be safe that sorry isn't it!

Just remember that the doctor running the physical is strictly a professional. This isn't the first time he's done a physical, hell, it's probably not even his first of the day. You've got every right to be freaked out, I wouldn't want to do it either. All I can really tell you is that the doctor is just doing what he has to. In fact, he's trying to help you, and he's probably had to do way worse things than examine somebody.

I know that's not much for advice, but I hope it helps in some way.

The thing that usually helps me through it is remembering that he probably doesn't want to be there looking at your junk either. You'd both rather being doing something else, so being chill is paramount to making the process easier.

I get that you're not comfortable with anyone seeing your junk, but this is just a physical exam.

Calm down and rememeber that doctor sees that everyday, hundred times. They just don't care. They are doing their job and aren't interested in other things.
Try to repeat that to yourself few times before getting in. It hlps to calm down, at least for me :)

UPDATE:

It happened. It wasn't nearly as and as I thought it was going to be. I mean it is their job and all. I'd just like to thank all of you for helping me through this.
