Phobia of walls, ask me anything!

Well, I have a phobia of being too close to them at night. I can't have my face too close to a wall otherwise I have a panic attack. Last night was a particularly bad one- I didn't get to sleep until 3:30am because I was scarily aware of the walls that were right next to me and felt as if I was suffocating so had to keep getting up to breathe :tongue:

So yeah, ask me anything xD

Wow, I've never heard of that before. Is that caused by some kind of claustrophobia?

I think so. It may be a form of claustrophobia specifically relating to walls :lol:
Do they drive you up the wall?

Hilarious. But yes, I don't particularly like them
Where is your bed placed in your room?

Ironically, right next to the wall :tongue:

Why don't you move your bed away from the wall? :dontknow:

Because my room is so tiny that I would then be right next to the other wall.
I thought I was the only one with this fear, I'm kind of glad to hear that I'm not the only one. I normally put up a pillow between the wall and me. Have you tried that?
That's called Toichophobia my boy! probably mixed with claustrophobia too
