I don't think I can handle this any longer...

[L!zz!e]

Everyone is against me. Everyone is laughing at my fear. I am all alone. This is literally taking over my entire life. I want to e normal. Why am I so afraid? Am I a coward or us stupid? I just don't think I can do this anymore. I don't want to leave this world, I just want to be normal.......

Sounds like to me u really need a friend,someone to listen to you,and understand,and thats any and everyone on this site! I have been dealing with this phobia a very long time! Things can and do get better! Dont give up,although thats easier said than done..if u would like to chat inbox me,it always makes me feel better to talk to someone! Goodluck!

Talking does always help. You can always do the same to me whenever you need it

Take it from someone who has been struggling with this for years; it can and will get better. It doesn't feel like it now, but looking back on my past experiences I am taking baby steps towards gaining my life back.

Unfortunately, it is normal for people not to understand this phobia... especially at a younger age. I am just about to turn 19 and a lot of my friends will laugh when I try to talk to them about it. It's not because they don't care, it is because it is SO incredibly hard for someone without this phobia to understand. Please know that you can turn to anyone on this site for help/to talk to and we will understand! Sending well wishes your way! xx

I feel the same, I hae tried literally everything to help me, and nothing has worked. I would give anything to not be afraid anymore. The best way to beat it is to talk to others with the same condition and support each other
