What're your phobias anon?How were they shaped by your experiences?Arachnophobia, claustrophobia, homophobia..?I believe phobias may have a higher incidence in lgbt due to increased social isolation leading to higher risk and danger in formative years
>>44046474sauces
I have trypophobia and that's like it honestly i beat my fear of heights out of myself by doing rock climbing and I've never been scared of spiders so the big ones are kinda out of the wayI used to be kinda Islamophobic but not rlly these days
>>44046474Idk the words for these but I have a fear of the dark and a fear of hallways, especially dark hallways. Idk where it comes from but I know the upstairs hallway at my parent's place is one of the scariest places in the world to me, especially at night
>>44046492sauces?>>44046495good job with the acrophobia nona >>44046499Dark AND hallways, so if it was a well lit hallway you'd still be slightly scared?
>>44046514I mean a well lit hallway still might scare me, kinda depends on the architecture of the hallway. I dread my parent's hallway partially because of the dark, partially due to the architecture/nooks and crannies, and partially because there are a ton of pictures of my family and myself which I dread seeing during the day and feel like I'm being watched by them at night
>>44046533Maybe I'm just scared of my childhood home for some reason
>>44046474>What're your phobias anon?transphobia, homophobia, hydrophobic skin... just the usual
heights
I have cynophobia, fear of dogs if you don't count dumb ones like social anxiety and illness as phobiasReally strays and larger dogs tho, not gonna be scared or a chihuahua>>44046542sounds like you might desu, dark corners, pictures of family, if ur trans maybe old pics of u are upsetting as well>>44046565i like the image
>>44046600I am a tranny unfortunately so yeah those pictures really bother me even tho I just look the same with longer hair and cone tits
>>44046474Let me list my irrational fears>gnomes>being actually a fae or fairy folk that because I was born weak and not capable of sexual function that I’m actually a changeling and that I’ll be murdered as such>reincarnation - I’m working to remove myself from the cycle >crowds>being bitten by dogs again>not an absolute terror but I feel uneasy around alcohol because of being roofied and jumped while drunk>spontaneous combustion >false psychics send me into a panic because people believe their shit>being with other people, that they’ll create an unhealthy love for me, and I don’t reciprocate so it hurts them so I lie and love them back>worrying that because of trauma I’m unable to be genuine with deep emotional connection >being around my family again, it’s been decades, but for obvious trauma reasons I don’t go back>urges to whore myself out, to get fucked and passed around, to be used because I think I deserve it and I like that I deserve it>that my body is failing me, i have a lot of medical problems and the amount of blood escaping my body’s holes is alarming at times not enough to truly worry but enough for mild concern>being abducted by aliens and them not wanting me>being regularly seen, I keep a bit of mystery around myself, attachment can lead to more suffering and I think life makes me suffer enough
>>44046626Jesus madchan, that's a lot of random rational and irrational fears/worriesA lot of them seem easily avoided atleast or to ignore unless you have ocd, sorry if you doWas the OP image bad then? >being abducted by aliens and them not wanting meI feel bad I laughed at this tho
>>44046514ketchup, horseradish, guac... sauces.
>>44046600>i like the imagecool i like this one
>>44046474Grew up in rural Appalachia, as a result I have a deep prejudice for rednecks. It's something I'm trying to overcome--it was pretty bad in high school--but they make me extremely uncomfy.
>>44046653No they have to be physically in front of me for me to avoid them, it’s because if a gnome is near you and you know it’s actually alive they’ll break into your house at night and eat your skin, piece by piece >ocd?Not that I know of (๑•̌.•̑๑)ˀ̣ˀ̣
>>44046678why would you try to overcome a rational response to subhumans that you developed through experience? thats like trying to unlearn the prejudice that putting your hand on a red-hot stove is a bad idea
>>44046694I've met some decent ones since. I'm trying to be less judgemental, especially since I moved to a fairly blue Appalachian city where redneck is not always synonymous with bigot/abuser.
>>44046707some, im sure, are good people
>>44046669That's really interesting, if you were comfortable enough I'd love to hear why you think it is. I think all "irrational" fears are based in rational thought or experiences>>44046677I liked the other one more>>44046687> if a gnome is near you and you know it’s actually alive they’ll break into your house at night and eat your skin, piece by pieceOh.. I didn't know that. That sentence seems like a cognitohazard Also didn't mean to insinuate you might or could have ocd, just that with a long list of phobias it'd be exacerbated by the condition because of the rumination
>>44046742probably lactose intolerance, my first encounter with cheese was in the form of gooey stuff. put me off from melt in your mouth type sensations forever
