Does anyone have a weird phobia?

And not the boring fear of spiders of heights!

I have Trypophobia, which is a fear of holes :o
More specifically, small clusters of holes, like honeycomb and pores.

Any one with weird phobias like me?

    My OH says she has a button phobia, I think she's just a bit weird.

    Medical stuff, not just needles, but hospitals and doctors and even talking about anything remotely medical:p Even diagrams and x-rays and things like that.

    I cannot bear ink on my skin. If I need to make a note I will never write on my skin, I will hunt down a piece of paper.My work colleague knows I hate ink on me and sometimes he will stab me with a pen just to annoy me.

    Birds, I nearly crashed the car today just to avoid driving near one. :o The windows were all down and I didn't want it flying in at me. :o I avoid the pond in my park at all costs, I'll walk in the bushes, by myself knowing full well that the junkies all sit about there but I'd rather deal with them than have a duck fly towards me...or worse a swan attack me.

    And the dark. But alot of people are so I don't know if that's weird?

    I don't like feet either - :eek: they just make me cringe!

    As stupid as it sounds, the clothes manikins in shops really freak me out. I'm weird!

    Another one with Podophobia here (fear of feet). I hate them, I get really freaked out if anyone touches me with bare feet and was once sick because my sister was picking hers!

    I'm also scared of fire, used to have nightmares about it when I was a child, no reason for it though. I'm getting better as I now smoke but it has to be a lighter, I can't use matches and hate anyone else handling fire near me.

    I've heard of that one before Stiffy or have you put it before?

    I just have normal phobias but quite a few of them :o;)

    Or we know the same person :D

    My friend at work has a massive phobia about mushrooms, she wouldn't even go into a mushroom growing room on a school trip.

    Barn Owls

    And some of the more 'normal' ones.

    I don't think it's a full-blown phobia, but rogue hair lying around, not attached to their owners is revolting. :mad:
