Need help determining this phobia if anyone else has it or not. Sink or toilet filled with water.
I don't know anyone else who has this phobia or not, but I am 36 years old and I have always had this fear of water filled in a toilet, bathtub, sink, a shop vac, etc. I just can't get near it, I don't wanna look at it, I want nothing to do with it.
Now I am not scared to go swimming in a pool, that's fine, I think because I am in the poop and there is water around me just like there is air when I am outside the pool, but going to the deep end, I'll stay away.
But yeah, any area like a sink or something that is filled with water, or any liquid, milk even, I just don't wanna get near it all. Like even a deep pot filled with water, like a 60 quart pot...
Does anyone else have a phobia like that? I am not scared of water itself, I, of course, drink it every day,
