I have an irrational fear of balloons
It used to prevent me from going to birthday parties, or I'd have to wait outside while the parents hid them all. I especially hate children with balloons, it is a dangerous combination.
I am much better in my adult life, but still don't like them.

At least I no longer have the recurring dream where I'm on FUNHOUSE, and it's down to me to get the last ticket so my freinds and I can all win the sega gamegear, but it's at the bottom of the balloon tunnel and I wimp out on television which my freinds think is really uncool, coupled with the pain that none of us have the sega gamegear...

so yeah

Having said this, I overcame my fear once on lsd, where I was totaly transfixed by these colourful orbs
that did not seem to obey common laws of gravity, I grasped at one and played with the magical object, before discovering in horror what it was. My drug fueled mind told me I had to do something about my fear, so I began to squeeze it in and out in time to some awful phsytrance I had found myself stuck listening to, and eventually popped the fucker. I am less scared of them now

LSD is being seriously suggested as a treatment for PTSD
on the basis that it disrupts the way the brain processes memories, and thereby gives it a chance to get out of its rut. Or something like that.

Maybe.

Oh, I don't know.

I treat PTSD in soldiers by creeping up behind them and popping balloons.

That's certainly the cheaper option.

I don't know, a £5 drop of good LSD will sort you out for 12 hours

That is my idea of hell, crazy soldiers, and popping balloons.
