Hi.  Do you wear glasses?  Just add a strip of scotch tape across the bottom third of the outside of the lenses.  Cut to fit so it doesn't look funny.  That should solve your problem and give you your life back again!

Dear Kappa, I have almost the same problem. I am also starring at people, especially males (I am a woman), and it is so embarrassing for me, since I have never been kind of girl who checks out other man. I am not starring at their private parts, but more in whole person., which is also very disturbing.I have a good husband and a wonderful daughter (7 years old). No matter, very young, old, middle aged, my eyes are involuntary moving to this person. Sometimes this also includes woman and kids. I am also not pervert, and I don't think about sex when I am doing this, I am just afraid, and try to stop, but I can't.And when people notice this, they are rejecting me,or laughing at me. I am unable to work, shift stores where I shop, I am embarrassed to go to the kindergarten to pick up my little girl. It has been like this for more than five years. I tried psychotherapy, medications, nothing helped. I am constantly thinking about killing myself, the only think that stops me is my daughter. I told my husband and my family, but they don't understand. I desperately need help. If you have found a way to stop with this please write me, even if you didn't ...
