Hello! I noticed someone(not naming names)put down that they have a phobia of adhesive. Well, so do I!!!! I'm currently sixteen years old and have known I was scared of adhesive since I was five years old. I can not hold a piece of tape or anything that has adhesive on it for more 12 seconds. I timed myself......Is there a name for this?

I have one son with a phobia of his sister. He is now on medication that has helped, but before the medication he had not seen her for two and a half years. He would scream as though someone was going to kill him, even if it was only her hand going around a corner. there was no family life. They couldn't watch TV together, go out in public,and to get them to school i had to put a towel up in the car to act as a screen. My second son has a phobia of other people eating. So he hasn't had a meal with us for about two years. Medication has not helped him. Does anyone know the name of these phobias?

Hello. :cheese: My name is Mary and I have a phobia of people with amputated limbs. I can actually remember how it started. I was about 7 when I was watching tv with my mom and dad when "Ripley's believe it or not" came on and some girl with no arms or legs swam across the english channel or something..and I just kinda spaced out.It was the first time I saw a person like that and I just kinda shut off,mentally. That night I had a dream about it..well a nightmare really,where she just fell on me out of no where and it was completely dark and she was talking and gesturing with her...nubs. Ever since then I've been so afraid.My mom makes fun of me sometimes and I may chuckle about it,but it really is horrible. I have a huge fear of the nubs touching me...and when I think about it I kinda squirm around and I want to cry. I'm super normal,its just when I see someone with a missing limb I almost faint.I've been to therapy for it..and I can..cope but I can't have them touch me.I've had a massive panic attack and I had to go to the hospital..my heartbeat was visible through my shirt. :down: Even though I've never heard of someone with this phobia, is there anyone else who has a phobia like me?

Hey my name is Danielle and I am 14 years old.
I have a phobia of rubbing my hands together & I cant stand when other people do it. Jesse, we have alot it common,

i have a fear of cottonballs. it started with me just being grossed out. and slowly developed into screaming and crying when people tried to torment me with them, thinking its funny. when it's really not. it sends me into a panic attack.

I'm scared of pencils. I cant touch them. They just freak me out. I can use Mechanical Ones "Pacers" but not a wooden pencil. Thinking about them makes me anxious, Like I wanna be sick. I have no issues with lead or wood in general but pencils give me the heebie jeebies.

I have a phobia of getting my hands wet and touching something I absolutley cannot do it. When I was little I would make my hands into a fist until they dried, finally I tried lotion and it worked! I have to use it a couple of times after I get my hands wet, it works! Hope this helps.

Okay I seriously have the worst fear of my hands being wet or hands touching or anybody part that is wet touching another body Part .... Someone with a problem like this please email me . Thanks

I have the paper issue as well. It's not a fear of the paper itself, but of touching it, the sound of someone touching it, all of it. Is that also papyrophobia? Any info would be GREAT

I also have a fear if rubbing my hands together. At all times the insides of my hands where the lines are cannot touch together I get chills and cringe and when u was little, like 8 or 9 I used to cry at the thought of my two hands or feet touching together. I can't stand the sound that it makes either, and my friends tease my all the time to the point where I have to run out if the room. I don't know a name for this phobia though. I also can't stand if my hands are sweaty especially in-between the fingers. I also have a fear of bridges, boats, planes, elevators, and heights.

Okay, so someone else said something about this, but it was so long ago I don't know if anyone remembers. Ever since I began watching odd (scary) movies I have had intense panic attacks. When I was younger, it was one episode of the television show "So Weird" where a paranormal animal killed people, but first, his glowing eyes were spotted in the dark. At night I would SWEAR I saw those glowing eyes. I would force myself to close my eyes, and begin convulsions (stomach muscles having violent contractions) and I wouldn't be able to breathe. This happened for a while, but when I got older I watched the movie The Grudge. This was about seven years ago. Since then I constantly feel that she is behind me, or in the ceiling corner of my room, or in my shower, or anywhere really. I hear sounds that aren't there. I see figures that aren't there. When I tell people this they say "That movie isn't real, those things can't hurt you" I am completely aware of these things, but I continue to be terrified. Last night I had such a bad panic attack my boyfriend almost called my parents to ask if I needed to see a doctor. I don't know what to do. This fear is eating away at me. My first step is to find a name for it. What could it be?

What is the fear of is Dogs called. I know that fear of spiders is called Arachnophobia.

so yeah i have the wet hands and feet phobia to i hate it my hubby goes to help me out of the bath when i have wet fingers it makes me vomit, does anyone know what its called ???

i have a fear of pubes. everytime i see them i try to rip them out and eat them and i hate the crunching sound of pubes in my mouth

this is a very informative article. i have always believed that many things may work for us and not for other people. stress and anxiety are easy to prevent if we just try to know what are the causes of these. some relaxation techniques can really help but it is still best for us to know what may really work by trying out different ways on how to prevent it.

I have a totally irrational fear of underground water...i don't know why, but it freaks me out REALLY bad...i was once in some caves, and came across an underground lake, I couldn't make it anywhere near the lake. I felt like something was in there. I wanted to kill the lake somehow... haha

I have a fear of styrofoam. I know it is weird, but the sound and the way it looks freaks me out! I don't understand it, but my skin starts crawling and I usually run out of the room. I wish I understood it or the reason for it, but I have been like that since I was a little girl.
