Haphephobia is the fear of physical contact with another human being.
A lot of the backstories of this rare condition, come from the fear of sexual assault.
In some cases, it has even gotten to the point where people will have allergic reactions when touched.
In other cases, it might not cause a reaction, but being touched for other people could feel like burning fire.
Other effects from being touched can include, getting light headed, freezing up, shaking, occasional tics, and lashing out.
Alex has many of these symptoms.
