Being trapped / restricted movement

The caving scenes in The Descent made me so dizzy and sick. :nauseated_face:

It was the way you constructed the sentence!

It does sound pretty awful/funny at the same time though. One of those things you can look back at and laugh?

Haha no, I know. I was kidding!! And it was totally fine. I hate the fact I have a phobia of spiders because I think they’re great! I just can’t seem to stop sweating and freaking out when I’m near them. Haha!!

imagine if spiders flew. this is the nightmare world i inhabit.

Not lolworthy at all! There are so many phobias and I wouldn’t laugh at them.

An ATD’s GF has a phobia of cutlery scraping against plates so my ATD has to cut her food for her before she eats. Sounds like a silly thing but I’ve seen her react really badly to it and I know how much of an issue it is for her.

Yeah, I can’t imagine :grimacing: That’s awful. I especially feel bad for people with bird phobias!

toe-bi-us and the pho-beers

i wouldn’t say I have a phobia of it as i’m still able to go on boats/watch it on the telly, but the sea really freaks me out. hate seeing images of submarines / whales underwater especially.

just shivered.

Doesn’t even rhyme

DONT DO THAT

Yes and no.

A phobia occurs when fear is taken to an extreme, like, in the case of Acrophobia, the climbing of a ladder or standing on a table. But anyone in the right mind standing on top of a very tall building would be scared of falling off.

Just heights. Terrifying aren’t they.

But people who are scared of heights aren’t all scared of falling off things. My fear of heights definitely has a bit of “Call of the void” mixed in there.

There’s a south London punk band called The Phobics. Close enough?
