This summer I've managed to wear a couple of blouses and T-shirts with
very small butons on.

Does this mean I'm over my phobia? Unfortunately I don't think so. I
have always found tiny buttons less of a problem than big ones and I
still don't like it when I accidentally touch one but I can't see them
when they are on my front and I think I can forget about them. I still
couldn't wear big ones and I couldn't wear any in bed when I was
trying to relax. I bought some pyjama trousers recently that had tiny
decorative buttons on the front. I thought I could wear them but I
couldn't and had to cut them off.

Does anyone else find some buttons are acceptable?
