She said: 'I grew up in a women's family and maybe that's part of the reason. Dad divorced my mother when I was 6 years old and I didn't see him again. One of the most recent memories was when I was 13 years old. I have a parcel and I have to sign it. A man I didn't know was waiting at the door. I was in such a state of shock that my sister Sarah thought I had a fever and let me lie down. '

Emily said that every time she feared men, the effects of fear lasted from 10 minutes to an hour. Fear starts when Emil feels blush, his body gets hot and feels unable to breathe. Then she will feel a horrifying fear of the man in front of him and suffocates.

Despite her fear in public, Emily became very skilled in hiding her fear. She often pretends to be unwell.

Emily was not afraid of her boyfriend at school, but when friends grew up, Emily saw her boyfriends become more frightening.

It was not until 14 years old that she shared about the problem she had with her mother. Her mother took her to see a male doctor, one of the few men she could sit across without fear of fainting because he took care of her health since childhood.

Emily told the doctor everything and felt like she was draining the burden. She was told by her doctor that she had a fear of men.

As a recruitment counselor, Emily was still frightened when she met a strange man who came to the interview, but she was forced to face it.

However, the love life was badly affected. She tried to date a few times but couldn't overcome a kiss because when she touched a man, the fear was so great that she couldn't stand it.

Emily said: 'It seems that the fear of men has turned into fear of intimacy. I hope to meet someone one day with me to erase the fear of men and I can finally marry and give birth. '
