It’s ridiculous, because I’m old enough now to be past it, but I’m scared of flushing the toilet! Well, not when it’s closed, only if the lid is open because of all the germs that fly out… So I don’t use public restrooms because they don’t have lids! It’s really quite stupid… But anyways I was wondering, IS THERE A NAME FOR MY PHOBIA? I don’t know if it would be a fear of flushing, a fear of toilets, a fear of feces, a fear of germs, or a fear of public restrooms, there’s like a billion things that tie into my fear.
well i know the germs don’t “fly” out, but they do come out somewhat in a mist-like thing, i always thought they did, but then i saw a documentary on discovery health, then again on mythbusters.
they put blue dye in the water, the put a paper towel over the bowl, and flushed. sure enough, the paper towel got blue specks of water all over it, proving it DOES spray out…
i know, i’m paranoid…
