No matter how strong and composed they might appear, some women harbor irrational fears that they seldom confess. These fears, often influenced by societal pressures or personal insecurities, can range from the slightly amusing to the profoundly intense. While some of these fears may seem trivial or even absurd, they significantly impact a woman's daily life and decision-making process. Let's delve into some of these unspoken.
Without fear, we’d probably get into stupid situations that would kill us. But when does a fear cross the line and become irrational?
Lachanophobia is an irrational fear of vegetables.
Smoky Quartz earrings with a 925 silver support Stone size: 6 mm In lithotherapy, Smoky Quartz is seen as the stone of responsibility and refocusing. Thus, it would help to calm strong emotions that prevent thinking from being effective, and would improve lucidity and concentration. The Smoky Quartz stone helps us think better and get rid of the irrational fears, anxieties, and inner contradictions of which we are prisoners. It also improves self-confidence, but also the ability to open up to others. * It would have a positive effect on us, allowing us to make the right decisions. It would chase away negative thoughts and combat sadness. ***there is a very slight difference between the two earrings*** 💎Designer jewelry with a boho and boho chic spirit, handmade 💎Designed and produced in France 💎All my jewelry is sent in careful packaging with a gift box and within 24 hours of ordering
Washing and cleaning rituals are widely recognized symptoms of OCD. People with “cleaning OCD” can be characterized by their overwhelming desire to repeatedly clean themselves, their homes, their environment, their belongings, and sometimes even other people.
When I came up with the concept for this post, I started up a list of fears, went to see if I could find more, and discovered that someone has done years more work than me, and there are many more fears than I initially imagined. I mean, I know some of them. Trypophobia, for example, the fear of clusters, which, by the way, if you HAVE it, don't Google it. "Hey, guys, what kind of pictures should show up in Google Images for people who have a fear of clusters?' "How about a bunch of clusters?" "Brilliant!" Anyway, if you're looking for a fear for your character, take a look at The Phobia List, which is exactly as described on the tin. While it actually doesn't have trypophobia on it for some reason, it does have things like: - Alliumphobia - Fear of garlic. - Chronomentrophobia - Fear of clocks. - Euphobia - Fear of hearing good news. - Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia - Fear of long words. Yes, the person who named it is an asshole. - Omphalophobia - Fear of belly buttons. - Soceraphobia- Fear of parents-in-law. - Zemmiphobia - Fear of the great mole rat But those are, at their core, "common" fears, fears that have been written about and named in reference books. It doesn't quite look at irrational fears. Those can get very specific. For example, aichmophobia is the fear of needles or pointed objects, including knives. For a time, on top of a fear of needles, I was outright terrified of being accidentally impaled by someone using a knife in the kitchen. Absolutely irrational, but I spent the better part of a decade excusing myself whenever someone else was cutting anything because I could just SEE the knife slipping out of their hand and flying at my skull like a ninja star. So, since general fears have been done well beyond my means, let's have some fun with irrational ones, or ones that aren't on the list. Irrational Fears Fear of a children's TV show Fear of a specific song Fear of accidental impalement Fear of being late or early Fear of being murdered in a hotel room Fear of being stalked by internet trolls Fear of celebrities Fear of chihuahuas (or any other small dog breed) Fear of closed cupboards Fear of clowns in unlikely places Fear of conspiracy theories Fear of cracked doors Fear of crossing train tracks or standing on platforms Fear of desserts Fear of emergency or construction vehicles Fear of escaped zoo animals Fear of falling in public Fear of finding unnatural things in food Fear of flickering lightbulbs Fear of getting kicked in the face Fear of getting locked out Fear of getting lost in a big city Fear of hotel rooms or any room that's not their own Fear of knitting needles Fear of knowing other peoples' secrets Fear of manual labor Fear of mythical creatures Fear of ocean debris (seashells, seaweed or flotsam) Fear of open windows Fear of other people being paranoid Fear of oversized bags (purses, trash, etc) Fear of rain puddles Fear of rainbows Fear of reflected light spots Fear of shaved or hairless cats Fear of the internet Fear of the naked mole rat Fear of uneven terrian Fear of unpaved roads Fear that everyone is talking about you behind your back Thanks to my dear friend Kat for coming up with several of the ideas on this list. Check her out on Twitter: @_Almost_ So, dear readers, tell me, what are YOU afraid of?
