PHOBIAS

Does anyone have any phobias?

I used to be petrified of daddy long legs, but I got over my fear one evening when one came through bathroom window just as I’d just sat down. Having long hair, I was scared that it would get tangled in my hair, so I closed my eyes and put up my hand and caught it, and I could feel it fluttering. Suddenly, I realised that this little fragile thing couldn’t possibly hurt me, so I popped him out through the window. I’ve never been scared of any creature since, but I dislike some, such as rats.

However, what I do have a serious phobia of is called Coulrophobia, which is a fear of clowns. I can’t look at them, even if they’re on telly, or just a picture. They just terrify me.

Please guys. Don’t turn this into a free for all for some of you. Okay?

Normally I would not be able to resist the temptation to make a joke about the, fear of clowns considering some of our members but, in respect of you Mollie, I will conform to your requirements,
Needles is my phobia , I hate them but its a thing at our age to expect blood tests and injections so, I grit my teeth lay back and think of being on a beach in the sunshine and, before you get to the bit with the topless babe coming out of the water, the nurse says,," all done now Mr Plum" and on we go,,,,
