LOL so I think I gradually felt safe with that particular doll LOL. But the rest are still... D: I am afraid of dolls D: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kaitou Kid Legendary Thief 197 Report post Posted December 15, 2011 I hate Barbie dolls more than anything!! But I like their movies though. They look scary I know. I only got over it because my sister bought one home. and playing with it nearly everyday. So I guess that is the only doll which I have overcome the fear.

So I guess that is the only doll which I have overcome the fear. LOL My sis is the CAUSE of my phobias! When I was only 1, she had this game with the dolls that my mom bought her. She will slowly cut the dolls into little pieces in front of me! :-( That is the earliest reason why I'm scared of dolls. It's like I feel that the ghosts of those dolls that my sis killed are after me cos I didn't save them. :-? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Suika 1 Report post Posted December 18, 2011 ^ hahaha at least you didnt get poked by that HUGE needle THREE TIMES IN A ROW because of human error. :V I got poked 4 times on error and made them change spots. I'm just very resilient to pain xD. Needles aren't that scary, but if you got a phobia of it then it is a different story. Usually the phobia is of the pain it will bring, than of the actual needle =3. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm very resilent to pain as well! And when I was four, I got into an accident and went to the hospital. The doctor had to take so many vials of blood!!! I was poked with a needle six times but thanks god I was already in so much pain to bother about the small stinging jabs. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tengaku squared 291 Report post Posted December 18, 2011 Is there a phobia for caterpillars? There isn't a specific one for caterpillars, but herpetophobia is a phobia encompassing the fear of snakes or "creepy crawly things". Perhaps that's it?

Hahaha same thing happened to me... It left a long scar there which lasted for at least 10 years. Still here now... DX the needle was 5 cm long... And I swear the bed was full of blood by the time the doctor finished... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
