MODERATORS
The solution is to examine why it makes you uncomfortable. Most likely irrational thoughts are at the root of this. If it's an involuntary response of your body to external stimuli, then it's ultimately self-harming and destructive to punish yourself for what you can't help. Especially when you consider that as humans, we are animals, and animals have the same response.
