I have submechanophobia- a fear of submerged man-made objects. This includes anything from old shopping trollys to fridges to bouys, ships and submarines. The larger the object the worse it is. If it's partially submerged it's even worse and so the worse thing ever is a ships hull. I can't look at pictures of shipwrecks or partially capsized boats and I can't even think of the word submarine without hyperventilating. My phobia has grown through association to all things nautical- even out of the water. For example, I saw a ships propellor on a trailer on the motorway and shot across 3 lanes to avoid it. Weird tho- I can go on a boat (cos I can't see the hull) and quite enjoy this after the initial freak out at being led onboard blindfolded, but if another ship sails nearby I have a heart attack. If i ever saw a real submarine i would die. If im stressed i dream of being in a dock. I cant go near canals incase someone has dumped an old fridge in there and i can seeit iust under the surface I sometimes freak myself out looking at my legs in the bath if my knees are sticking out of the water too. Anyone else?
