i can absolutely relate to the body issues as well as the fear of being bad at sex. those issues constantly come up for me and i have yet to really find a cure. it helps that my boyfriend is really understanding and sweet about them, but it's still hard sometimes. my only advice is to try not to feel bad if you don't want to have sex. there are always other things you can do instead.
do you masturbate? that might help you get more in tune with what your body likes and help some of your anxiety around sex. other than that i don't really have any advice. but i definitely know where you're coming from.
