This is a question Phobias

What gives you the heebie-jeebies?

It's a bit strong to call this a phobia, but for me it's the thought of biting into a dry flannel. I've no idea why I'd ever want to or even get the opportunity to do so, seeing as I don't own one, but it makes my teeth hurt to think about it. *ewww*

Tell us what innocent things make you go pale, wobbly and send shivers down your spine.

phobias are my specialty
i have the normals such as vertigo and clausotrophobia.

i also have an uncanny aversion to velvet. if i touch it, i will literally have a gag reaction. what frightens me the most is the thought of biting into it or putting it in my mouth and not being able to get it out again. makes me feel so nauseous.... blueeeugh.

i also have a phobia of being sick. if i feel sick, i will start panicking and if i actually go so far as to be sick, i'll cry for hours.

finally, we come to my phobia of blades but only if someone else is holding them. im perfectly fine myself... in fact, i am constantly being careless and nicking my fingers. if someone else is say cutting up something like a cake or just carrying a knife through from the kitchen, i will get very far away. my dear old pa noticed how i act so nervously and thought it'd be funny to brandish the knife he was using to cut up dinner with in my face. i screamed, ran away and locked myself in the bathroom, and burst into tears. after a while, he coaxed me out.

however, im not afraid of spiders.
