I thought I was the only one who had this phobia until just now! Wow. Yes I go into panic mode and I avoid places like theme parks with lots of rides because of it. The thought of knowing that a rollar coaster car that I sit down into has been thrown up on makes me beyond grosed out...more like phobic. I won't even go to places like that anymore. And when my husband has the sickies I am usually a bad wife because I run out of the door and drive away as quick as I can....and it's never quick enough! I get beyond grossed out at the thought of it, and never realized it was a phobia until just now

LOL LOL I'm sorry, but this made me laugh out loud... I think mostly because I'm the same way! I just can't handle it...I break out into the cold sweats if someone pukes...or if someone is 'feeling sick'. The worst was when I was on a plane...and I tell ya...there's nowhere to go! LOL This kid puked on the floor right beside my chair!! I think the look of horror on my face made the poor flight attendant wipe up what she could as fast as she could, then she dumped a bunch of coffee on it so it wouldn't smell! I was so tense until we landed and squeezed my eyes shut and prayed to god..."don't get sick...don't get sick...don't get sick..."

Another time, (sorry people...this is gross...be warned!) I was down in Monterey with my hubby and one of my friends. We had been to the Aquarium and decided to go and have lunch at Bubba Gumps!! I had been there before and it's great! Anyway, when we were leaving, we saw an old lady in a wheelchair, that had just eaten at Bubba Gumps and left a few minutes before we did, going accross the street. Well, she ended up turning to the side and just started puking up everything she ate. I swear it was clam chowder! Of course, that was the way were were headed and I said NO!!! We'll go around the long way...so we actually went around the block to avoid the scene. What makes it worse is, when she was done and safely accross the street, a whole flock of birds came down and started feasting!!! gross!!!

Adore, I can so understand why you're afraid of bees and stinging insects! Yikes!! Being stung in the EYE??!!!!!!! I can't even imagine!!!! **hugs** The jellyfish sounds dreadful too! Bless your heart!!
I have a needle phobia too. Most of the people I know can't believe I've never had blood drawn or anything like that. I'm too chicken! I can't even remember when my last shot was! Well, OK, it was probably right before I went to college...but still!! Forget it! That's why I'm afraid of having kids!! I just don't do pain well. That's where cats and dogs come in! LOL

LOL LOL Miss Meow...I think it was you that said CLOWNS! Add me to that list. LOL That's a strange phobia of mine...
Of course cochroaches....ick...spiders...yikes!

Driving by semis makes me nervous too, because I notice there is a pull on my car towards the semis when I pass that freaks me out. Those concrete dividers they put up on highways when they're doing construction also make me nervous. For some reason it feels like that lane is so much narrower and that I'm going to scrape the side....

Anyway, I'll stop for now before I write even more of a book! Keep those phobias coming! Some of them had me chuckling...no offense of course!
**hugs**
