Washing Up
I caught the end of a TV piece about someone with a phobia this morning, which started me thinking.
Since I was about 40, I can't sleep in bed without a ceiling fan on. If I try, the room feels as if it's closing in and I get panicy. I feel this way in enclosed, small spaces too. Or if there are too many people too close to me. To relieve this feeling in public, I have to fan myself with something; a pad, magazine or something.
So I found a site that lists phobias: Types of Phobias
I couldn't believe how long the list is!
So I guess I've either developed Claustrophobia or Clithrophobia.
When I was a child I think I had Didaskaleinophobia when my homework wasn't done, but cured myself by developing momophobia! (fear of my mother! LOL!)
Married people suffer from Pentheraphobia!
Anyone else have a phobia, and what do you do about it?
