Phobia of Mold Fungi & Barnacles
I am terrified of mold, mildew, mushrooms, any kind of fungus and barnacles. Small things like dots and occasionally holes on things that can look like mold have the same effect. I don't know what this is but it really bothers me. Just talking about it makes me itch and scratch. My mom was talking about mold the other day and I had to go get a shower. I just can't deal with it. I have no idea what this is called and it makes me feel crazy but its a real problem. I have dreams, well nightmares really, about this and it bothers me so much. I don't know but if there is someone out there that can help ir is goibg through the same thing please talk to me.
@LooneyArtimus Sounds like you were going through a difficult time when you posted this. Which is why I am so sorry that this thread was left unanswered for so long. We as a community should have done a better job to support you because you shouldn't have had to deal with this alone.
I unfortunately don't suffer from the same phobia but I can tell from reading your post that you are frustrated and want to overcome this fear. I hope that someone else on this site will read your post and relate to your situation. They can probably give better advice than I could.
How have you been since last April? Has the fear grown or gotten more manageable? Are you feeling more in control or do you still need our help? Please keep us updated and give us another chance to support you emotionally the way you deserve
