does anyone have a phobia?
« on: September 28, 2013, 04:45:04 pm »
I don't know if there is a name for it. I am afraid of bees. I run screaming when I see them.

  the  word  you  are  looking  for  is Apiphobia.   Most  people  have Ergophobia(fear  of work)  but  i  have  Ophidiophobia.  This is the  fear  of snakes.

I used to have a phobia of needles before I jumped into the medical field.

I'm deathly scared of spiders. I can't even go close enough to kill them! Arachnophobia is the name for that, and I have it bad. I'm so scared that even thinking about not being afraid of them, makes me scared!

Yep I have arachnophobia also, although I can finally kill them! My hubby does too and one time he punched a spider on the wall, I was scared he was going to put a hole in the wall of the house we rented cuz he hit it so hard!

I also hate snakes, my in-laws live in the country so this causes me to be very nervous when we have to go help outside at their house. They keep snake away on hand... no jokes.

I am allergic to any kind of Bee, wasps anything that stings so now I carry a epee pen.  I can't stand being in tight places.  This one time I was getting an MRI and they put a cage thing around my head started putting me in there once I got in there I started panicking and I freaked out and they had to pull me out and take the cage off my head once I calmed down I closed my eyes and let them continue but I had to Keep my eye closed the whole time.

I run from bees as well, can't stand spiders and it doesn't matter how small they totally creep me out  :o
