Weird phobias?
Question:
Answer:
Well your phobia is certainly different. I have 2 that come to mind other than the usual fear of spiders.
1. Scarecrows...the ones people make for Halloween. When I was little my neighbour made one and one day I looked over and it was walking around.
2. Balloons popping... I am perfectly okay if a balloon pops when I'm not looking at it but if I am watching as someone takes a needle or something sharp towards it, no matter how much I prepare myself for it, I ALWAYS scream. This has been quite a delight for my daughter to torture me, especially in a public place.

Nope...sorry, can't say that freaks me out.
I hate the way a cotton ball feels, like cotton balls for make-up removal, or the cotton balls they keep in aspirin bottles. I cannot touch them, it takes my breath away, and makes me nauseated. God bless*
I am so grossed out by toilet water, if I have to plunge toilets I stand back as far as possible, and won't touch a plunger without gloves, and try to cover my arms, with long sleeves, and everything. (and then take off the shirt when finished, and still scrub down hands, arms, everything) It happens often, that I have to plunge toilets where I work, and also at home, with 3 kids.
I get so freaked out about the toilet water dripping off the plunger. I have to carry it in a plastic bag, and then bleach the plunger, and rinse it and throw the bag away, then put the "clean" plunger back in another disposable bag to carry it back to put it away.
I freak when toilet water gets splashed on the bathroom floor. Then i have to use a special towel to mop it up and then bleach that in the wash and wash it a few times, to be sure to get rid of the toilet germs.
I also can not throw up in toilets (because I'm afraid toilet water will get splashed back on me) .
I think toilet water is the grossest thing on earth. I also hate it when people (mostly this was when I was growing up in the country) put a toilet in their yard for decoration and plant flowers in it.
Otherwise, I am not a neat freak by any means, but the thought of being contaminated with toilet water just horrifies me!
i used to be xenophobic...which is basically a fear or hatred of anything strange or foreign. luckily i got out of that one.
now im: -claustrophobic-fear of confined spaces
-ligyrophobic-fear of loud noises
-acrophobic-fear of heights..in my case just falling.
-tokophobic-fear of child birth...i have 2 kids by c-section cuz im scared sh*tless to push them out.
