Ok... so I'm a tad weird...
I understand most phobias stem from an exageratted natural response - namely fight or flight, the body over produces hormones, and goes into flap mode... Hey I'm not a doctor, but I beleive thats why so many of us have the same phobias, heights, strange bugs (poisonous??) enclosed spaces they all have the potential to harm you.

Any who...

A number of years ago whilst growing up I decided that my whole body wasnt developing in the usual manner, and, well it was terribly dull. So I decided that a diet of cannabis and LSD would prove a fascinating stimulus for my young brain box's mental development.

You may call me an acid casulty, war wounded, but I am getting better. However, certain parts of my noggin have left me for ever... one being the rationale response to seeing a candle... a lit candle... and formerly an unlit candle...

If I were to see one I would have to blow it out and remove it from my vision, worst ones were the white basics candles and tea lights. I am a born romantic... but if some bird expects me to get jiggy in a candle lit room and takes offence to me running about, before finally cowering in a corner, then she'll swiftly get the boot.

cling film, wide open spaces, vomit - especially vomit... I only have to see it or someone doing it and I turn into a sweating mess and vomit myself... even talking about it... eeeeewwwwwwww

Theres another one that actually hidden in the depths of my mind.. I shoved it so far down its either disappeared or was totally crap...

yep kids... dont do drugs... candles will become enemies...

length 10 years or so
