Skulls with teeth embedded up high in the jaw.

Bad stitching on the hem of really cheap clothes.

Cow and sheep feet at the local butcher.

What makes you turn your head away?

Anything about diving or drowning.

Heights, especially areal shots over tall buildings are truly distressing. My stomach turns and I feel very low.

Dirty plates.

Dirty mouths and poor table manners.

Food kept in a Tupperware container that needs to be chucked. I always throw out the container so I don't have to look at what's inside. It doesn't have to be 'off' either for me to do this

Same, I don't know what it is but I hate dealing with it.

Mozz I call that ‘egg snot’ Envy I love steak tartare but have to physically dissect the egg and remove the snot before tucking in.
Also, with fried eggs, I can dip stuff in the yolk but can’t handle the congealed solidified bit of yolk (or the layer of snot).

Langoustines, like giant pink insects, they make me heave.

Stanlow oil refinery, it makes my palms sweaty.

Holes anything with holes.
Crumpets, seedpods, anything holey i cannot sit behind a lorry carrying pipes, i feel physical sick.

meow1989 · 05/09/2018 22:39

I'm with @pollysproggle - holey things make my elbows itch and my throat feel funny!

I also hate that advert on tv with all the hands (talk talk maybe?).

Spiders and crawly things give me physical goosebumps.

Big house spiders

missmouse101 · 05/09/2018 22:53

My naked body. People's teeth.

demonbubblewrapper · 05/09/2018 22:56

Getting the heeby-jeebies about lots of holes is a proper thing. It's a phobia called trypophobia (and don't Google it because you'll get images on the screen).
Ugh.

AdelaideK · 05/09/2018 22:57

Frogs and mice. Give me the creeps they do.

Roomba · 05/09/2018 22:57

Empty swings blowing round in the wind, or still swinging after someone has disembarked. Makes me feel nauseous and panicky! Anything that swings really, I had a panic attack in a museum in Preston that has a Foucault's Pendulum Confused No idea why this started!

Also those ear plug things, especially huge ones where you can see right through to the other side of the ear
