Do YOU have any unusual phobias?

[glennc]

Alright, post your phobias and theyre clinical name.

I have bambakaphobia. It means "the fear of cotton". Whenever I get within sight of cotton balls or makeup pads I get shivers. Thinking about them gives me goosebumps.

Name yours

[l8braker]

[Impreza]

Sharp objects. ughhh

[eljefe]

lawyers

[djayz]

spiders...they disgust me. arachnaphobia i believe they call it...nothing unusual tho im sure alot of people have it

[86max]

Needlephobia, and Papercut-phobia........didn't find a scientific name for it. Something about getting a papercut to the eyes or neck that freaks me out.

I hate flying. I usually don't sleep the week before I have to step on a plane.

I don't know if mine's a phobia, but I get anxiety attacks when I have to listen to obnoxious people eat. No idea why, it definately isn't a choice, and I'm not afraid of it per se, but I guess that a "phobia" might be a good description of it?

moths. I am absolutely TERRIFIED of moths, I have no idea why. Any other bug I don't care, but butterflies give me the heebie jeebies too cause they're so similar.

Oprah-phobia. The sight of her makes me shiver, and medically disqualifies me from having sex for a week. Ugh...otherwise, I used to have a fear of water due to a near drowning as a kid. I've since conquered that.

It's not exactly a fear, but I can't stand to watch someone eat a dairy queen ice cream cone, because when i've had one in the past, i've bitten into the paper lining crap they put around the bottom and it gives me those shivers and makes me pissed off. EVerytime i see someone eating one it makes me shiver.

and because i am mean:

Oh man I can't stand Oprah! I don't know if you'd call it a phobia but I start twitching with anger when I think of her.

I really dont like people dressed up in full body costumes, especially if their face is coverd by a mask or a whole schwack of makeup. Clowns and mascots etc. Freaks me right out!

Haha... Andy I have the exact same 2 fears... when ever I'm sleeping I need to lower my head so my chin covers my neck because I always think that someone will come along and slice it
And needles jsut bring back memories from all the surguries I had when I was a little kid

[joyridder]

I hate public washrooms, more specifically doors, walls and floors, can't trust the toilet seat either....yuck....
edit: let me not forget Garden Gnomes - those creepy little bastards
