I can't remember how long I've been afraid of watching others v* for. I don't like to v*, it hurts, it's not fun, but I'm not exactly afraid of doing it myself. I'm never ill tho so it doesn't matter much but when I am I can't watch.
I'm so afraid of others v* that I once ran out of the room when my baby brother started choking [img]smileys/smilies_16.gif[/img] God it was years ago and I'm still so ashamed of it. (My mam was in the room and I didn't go anywhere until I saw her run towards him, but still ashamed). If someone asks me to the cinema, the first thing I do is panic a bit in case someone on screen v* (I still go but worry). I never go out for a lot of reasons but one big one is that I'm uncomfortable drinking around most people in case they v*. I was babysitting once while my auntie and husband were out, and stayed the night. I woke up hearing her husband v* and I swear, I covered my ears and PRAYED to go back to sleep. I had two new ear piercings and crushed them against my head, trying to drown out the sound and go back to sleep...
Saying that, my worst nightmare is to have a stomach pump or endoscope.
It's a hard phobia to live with and very much so affects daily lives, and unfortunately a lot of people just can't take it seriously =/Edited by: i_has_boobs
