Literally, I can barely stand to be around them for more than a few minutes before I start to panic. Not just people with contagious diseases, really, anyone with any problem from alzheimers to recovering from surgery. People with contagious germs scare me (I ran from the drug store today without getting my change beause the woman behind me was sneezing), people with other illnesses terrify me! My family accuses me of being insensitive, I say I am too scared to come visit them! I have nightmares about having to visit nursing homes full of dying people.
well i used to have this really weird phobia, i used to be afraid of people who were physically sick! i oculdnt b around my friends if they felt sick or had been sick within the week, it wasnt that i was afraid of catching anyhting i was just terrified of vomit and watching or hearing people throw up at all. i hitnk it was when i was little once i got really ill and i was sick continuesly for bout three days and i got so scared that something as bad as that would happen again that i cried for ages about the htought of it, and i think it somehow effected me later on. i had heard of one of my friends brothers with the same problem but a bit worse, like if someone was sick he would run out of the house and round the block, or he owuldnt eat anything home cooked like cakes incase he caught salmanela, but i was just scared of the hwole hearing, watching someoe be sick hting. i mean im ok now, i can watch, and listen without getting to worked up about ut lol but still try and find other people with this problem i wana see how they delt with it.
