>Scopophobia, scoptophobia, or ophthalmophobia is an anxiety disorder characterized by a morbid fear of being seen or stared at by others.[1] Scopophobia can also be associated with a pathological fear of drawing attention to oneself.[2]
Any literature that explores this fear?

I have/ have had this. Out of interest what have your experiences with drugs been like? If you've had any that is.

Weed heightens the feeling to an unbearable degree. Psychs heighten it too but there's so much else going on that it's never central to the experience. Alcohol dulls it satisfactorily.
DFW's The Pale King has a character who's really self conscious about looking sweaty. Idk if that's what you're looking for though

Lu Xun's Diary of a Madman, although obviously there's much more going on.
Actually it would be hilarious to put a non-Chinese sufferer of this condition in the middle of a Chinese city.
