Does anyone else avoid sex if their body isn't in shape?   Unfortunately I do, and I am usually very concerned/aware that my body looks good during sex.  Over the course of last year I was in perfect shape and had high confidence to sleep with guys.  This stopped mid December when I started a new medication (and depression), I've already gained 20 lbs.  I haven't lost weight due to the side effects and emotional eating.  Now I see my body completely differently and I don't recognize myself.  I haven't been with anyone sexually since and refuse to even see the guys I was hooking up with before this.  I feel embarrassed and hate how I look now; I stopped going out with my friends to the usual clubs, bars, and parties.   I'm 23 and should be bouncing back from the gym but it's not working.  So I ask, has anyone else avoided hookups, sex, and/or social events due to a sudden change in weight like this?
