Phobias

Lyndsay

Does anybody have any phobias? I detest clowns and, it sounds strange, but the sound of German language. I don't mean to offend anybody, but I can't listen to anybody speaking German. The person speaking could be the nicest person in the world, but I really can't stand to hear the language. Sometimes I feel so awful but I really can't help it. Also I can't stand clowns...There was a mime performing in the street and he had clown makeup on..I nearly screamed! I hate my phobias so much, I was wondering if anybody had a same phobia or any phobias at all!

  • It's fascinating how phobias start..most of them are triggered by a bad experience. For example, my fear of clowns was triggered when I was about 5 years old and I'd gone to a play centre. Then suddenly, a clown ran out from underneath a slide and starting chasing all the kids, targeting me. I was distraught :( Now I freak out when I see a picture of one!
