Do you have any phobias?

Whether they are common or not, do you have any phobias? What helps with them?

I really can't stand wasps and bees, even just the buzzing sound... *shivers* :bee2:

That's a pretty common one, I know someone who has a phobia of bananas! :banana:

Thank you :colone:
Trypophobia (don't google it lmao)

I don't get scared, it brings about some sort of defensive instinct. Seeing stuff like that just makes me clench my jaw and want to kill it, crush it, and just make sure it's destroyed. :indiff:

EXTREME emetophobia (fear of vomit/vomiting)
arachnophobia and a fear of all bugs or insects or anything like them.
i also hate going under water and have a fear of the death of a loved one.

Food Poisoning Phobia

I always overcook any type of meat/poultry foods by 5-10 minutes of the recommend time. I don't know why as I have never suffered from food poisoning
