Phobia discussion: I bet you got one :-0

I am now getting phobia of plane travel.
First Malaysian plane missing, then Malaysian plane shot down by Ukraine, then Taiwan Plane crash and now Air Algerie flight :depressed: :hungover: :mask:

I hav my flight to Delhi on Sat., i m in no mood to travel by plane but have to go for Eid :mad:
 
I have a fear of spiders. Arachnophobia. I get scared even at the slightest sight of the tiniest spider and it makes me go bonkers. I just have to kill it and make someone else kill it!
Cause the biggest fear is not seeing a spider but to see that it disappeared. :walkingdead:
 
I don't know if this is a phobia or not..
Every time I go out I am scared that I have left something important back in the home like wallet, may be DL or money or CC. Something which is very important for that particular journey.

Well porn can still be downloaded and you may even get way better than what you previously had but what about your personal data???
Family photos/videos memories, our hard searched downloads, personal files created/gathered related to our school/college/office works like projects, expenses, presentations, anything we custom created just for our use such as a custom phone firmware, some tools etc. and many more to add. Not to mention esp. if the single pc is shared by all family members. :eek:

Freak!! I just cant think of anything ever happening to any of my hdds!!!:coldfeet: :doctor:

This is common esp. we are going on tour for a day or two. People are bothered by stuffs like if any fan, bulb, taps and even gas cylinder is left turned On by mistake. And same goes with lockers, windows left opened/not properly locked.
 
I'm scared of strangers and beautiful women. I have a constant fear that I would offend them in some way or the other and the situation could turn nasty. Don't know why..
Once I get to know someone I'm cool with them[DOUBLEPOST=1406361007][/DOUBLEPOST]I'm scared of strangers and beautiful women. I have a constant fear that I would offend them in some way or the other and the situation could turn nasty. Don't know why..

I have read about that. It's called Venustraphobia, right.
 
Fear of strange holes here- trypophobia. Recently, disturbing images of holes on human bodies are being posted on Facebook.
 
Wasn't aware such a thread existed and such varied List of phobias existed among TE'ians
It is definitely something not to be embarrassed of.
I got Blood phobia
Felt like posting onto this thread after I fainted last Monday while visiting a hospital for blood platelet donation.
Even after being a regular donor, am hell scared of blood. I avoid looking anything that has blood.
Planning to visit a counselor.
Wanted to know if someone knows a remedy
 
^^ Apart from drugs, the most common remedy is to face your fear.

You must've seen it on TV... People tackling their phobias in a controlled environment.

You can start by playing with color red, at home, in the presence of known faces. Gradually, start spending more time touching red liquids, paints etc. Then start seeing actual blood... maybe your own :p

Your brain knows that blood is harmless. You'll eventually overcome this phobia.

Keep seeing red.
Play voilent games with tons of blood esp. Zombie types.
Start by setting your cell and pc wallpaper to red or blood related art.
