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

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 way
I used to be kinda Islamophobic but not rlly these days
>>
>>44046474
Idk 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
>>
>>44046492
sauces?
>>44046495
good job with the acrophobia nona >>44046499
Dark AND hallways, so if it was a well lit hallway you'd still be slightly scared?
>>
>>44046514
I 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

>>44046533
Maybe I'm just scared of my childhood home for some reason

Really strays and larger dogs tho, not gonna be scared or a chihuahua
>>44046542

Let 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
>>
>>44046626
Jesus madchan, that's a lot of random rational and irrational fears/worries
A lot of them seem easily avoided atleast or to ignore unless you have ocd, sorry if you do
Was the OP image bad then?
>being abducted by aliens and them not wanting me
I feel bad I laughed at this tho
>>
>>44046514
ketchup, horseradish, guac... sauces.

Grew 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.
>>
>>44046653
No 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
>>
>>44046678
why 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
>>
>>44046694
I'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.

some, im sure, are good people
>>
>>44046669
That'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
>>44046677
I 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 piece
Oh.. 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

>>44046742
probably 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
