Summary

An intimacy disorder refers to a condition where an individual experiences difficulties in forming and maintaining close, healthy, and meaningful relationships with others. This can manifest in various ways - sex addiction, sexual anorexia, sexual compulsion, or love addiction. Intimacy disorders are typically the result of experiencing childhood trauma that resulted in the fear of abandonment or fear of engulfment.

Paul Gilmartin is a comedian, healing force and host of the podcast Mental Illness Happy Hour
