IronM17 5,724 Friday at 03:46 PM Share Friday at 03:46 PM I had as a child a really strange phobia. It is called vermiphobia or in english the scare of worms. And in this case, it means both, parasitic worms like tape worms, leeches or roundworms but also non-parasitic worms like earthworms or lugworms. I really don't know why I had this phobia or where it comes from, but I maneged it to handle this scare with the time. I mean, I am a educated gardener, and earthworms are the best friends of every gardener. I will not say the phobia is completelly gone, but I can handle it really well. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DubWolf 18,456 Saturday at 03:10 PM Share Saturday at 03:10 PM (edited) I used to be afraid of dogs. I had a bad experience with one when I was around 10 I think. I remember the day I lost that phobia too. There was an older dog (I think a cocker spaniel) that was sitting on their bed. I assume them being in such a calm, harmless state made me feel that they’re not all out to chase or bite at me ! Some of them are quite gentle. Many are quite jumpy! I guess my phobia was short lived as I was 12 when that happened. Im not so sure the extent of my phobia though… like how could I have been apprehensive about dachshunds D: ? (I didn’t have any experience with those ones then). Honestly I probably would’ve gotten over them quickly if my experiences weren’t mostly limited to street or loose dogs.

Sparklefan1234 179,463 Saturday at 04:07 PM Share Saturday at 04:07 PM (edited) Acrophobia - Fear of heights 😰 😳 Glossophobia - the fear of public speaking 😰 😢 I don't like crowds but I think that's my anxiety and not a fear. I HATE being the center of attention! 😳 Aichmophobia - the intense, irrational fear of sharp or pointed objects. Thanks to @ExplosionMare for reminding me of this one. I also worry constantly about letting everyone on MLP Forums down. 😔 Edited Saturday at 10:15 PM by Sparklefan1234 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Do svidaniya 2,020 Monday at 01:49 AM Share Monday at 01:49 AM I'm not sure if they'd be classed as 'phobias' for me as opposed to just vastly unsettling but Thalassophobia & Submechanophobia come to mind. На Крыльях Ветра... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
