Trouble with neck (mentions abuse)

Hey guys,
When I was abused, when he used to make threats, sometimes he pinned me by my neck, I think that's why I don't like anything touching it now. I can't itch my neck properly, If I'm lay down I panic if my hair is touching my neck, when my nephew is climbing he sometimes ends up leaning on my neck to help him which makes me panic and I have to sit him down.
This is a problem when it comes to washing. I have regular baths but I can not wash my neck, I hate any sort of pressure on it. I can just about put up with very gentle touching on my neck, but I only feel clean enough when I scrub, and I can't scrub my neck.
I don't know what to do, which doesn't involve going to the doctors or talking to a professional about this.
