I have a current fear of hammers. I don't know why, but I get real anxious when I'm around them.
It's strange because I don't have any phobias with other blunt objects and hardware, there's just something menacing about hammers..
I have low-latent inhibition, so normal phobias do not avail me. On the contrary, I develop uncommon ones because of this.
I was diagnosed with LLI when I was 12, and was put on anti-anxiety medicine to curve the symptoms. Supposedly it's not actually deemed a mental illness, but I will never be able to have medical marijuana for any reason because it lowers your LI even more. But that doesn't matter because I'm a pothead anyways
But yeah, weird phobias pop up from time to time for me. Not too long ago I had this undying phobia of butterflies

While I don't say it in my head, I still remember it from my childhood and get scared when I shut the bathroom light off and am still in front of the mirror ;_; Also whenever I have to walk through a dark house alone at night, because I used to have to walk a long way from the bathroom to my bedroom at night in my dad's old apartment, and I always got this really creepy feeling like there was something watching me. Which it turns out, *tries not to scream*...after we moved, without even knowing I had been scared or anything, my dad told me that he saw a man standing over his bed one night and so the place really was actually haunted while we were living there
And for Alec Baldwin, especially when he's in the Cat in the Hat and he's in a chair with no shirt on and he's all dirty--I swear he must have cheese in his bellybutton and I do not want to even go near there or have to touch it or smell it or anything, it scares me so much ;_;
