To ask what are your odd phobias and fears?

[Pricklypear12]

I'll start:
-large bodies of water (hate swimming)
-those moving walkways at airports (?!)
-large taps/plug holes

Anything to do with vomit

Stainless steel toilets.

I have to cut the tags and labels off every item of clothing in the house. They make me feel physically sick.
If I see a label sticking out of someone's T-shirt or clothing I have a mild panic attack and have to move away from them.

I get weird about sand under my toenails. I find it pretty all consuming at points on beach holidays.

Same as @Rachie1973 (trypophobia - clusters of holes) plus every time I enter a toilet cubicle I fear that I will find someone unconscious in there. Every time.

@qwertytrewq is it the underneath of mushrooms? Because all those grooves and crevices make me shiver a bit

@notnegan ME TOO! I have never found anyone else who doesn't find that hilarious but wet tissue is the most repulsive thing!

@AuntieRae yeah I hate spiral staircases too

The war horse puppet and the large sculptures of horses heads （like the one in Hyde Park.

Open stairs. IDK why but I'm scared my foot will somehow go right through the gap.

snow

waterfalls and weirs, they make me dizzy

Buttons 🤢🤢

Those drain holes in reservoirs scare the shit out of me.

I'll just go with all of the above! Even this thread is creeping me out!

Rubber gloves I don't know how anyone can bare to put their hands inside

Cotton wool

Rats

People in costumes.
At a child's party and you can't see who's in their.
Cotton wool

Trypophobic, but I LOVE killer whales..

I didn't know reservoirs had plugs till now

Standing or sitting on the edge of things, in case i get pushed off.

Down escalators and stairwells, like the ones you have to use in a fire drill and the lift is not working.

I don't know if this counts but mine is a piece of music...Tubular Bells by Mike Oldfield.

It makes me feel unsettled and upset if I hear it, it's not played often but its sometimes used in TV programmes.

Frogs

@EyeDrops

High five to you as that’s my life long phobia!!
Everyone thinks It’s stupid.

Oven gloves, can't put my hands in them although I have no issues with rubber gloves

Men with really deep gravelly voices make me go all wobbly and not in a good way
