    Phobias

    Anyone on here got any phobias they'd like to 'fess up to?

    Maybe a fear of spiders or flying.

    I'm moderately emetophobic which means I have a strong aversion to vomiting.

    Weird but then again so are all phobias.

      Not one of my own phobias but I always like the opportunity to break out hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia or the fear of long words

        I've got a phobia of seeing people vomit

        Had it since I was a kid and it's no easier now. If someone near me chucks up, I run

        Also had a fear of flying when I was a teenager and into my 20's and just would not do it.

        An 18 month contract in Bristol put paid to that though

          Fear of drowning for me. Dunno what it's called mind.

            Yes, that and worse still, the fear of vomiting oneself.

                    Spiders. I'm 6'3" and 18.5 stones, but a big black spider makes me squeal like a little girl and turn into a gibbering wreck.
