Sup, I wish I was joking. I actually used to love storms ironically. But ever since that tornado I've never been the same. I wasn't just in one. Like a tornado warning.(or watch) It was like a quarter of a mile away from me.(maybe less) I really thought I was going to die. And I can't get over. Although that's really the only way to get rid of the phobias. By getting over it. Every storm is a struggle for me. Do any of you guys have any... unfortunate phobias that you can't shake? [b]Astraphobia[/b] - an abnormal fear of thunder and lightning, a type of specific phobia. [b] Ancraophobia[/b] - the fear of wind. People who have this fear tend to fear weather changes, such as storms (i.e., hurricanes) because they could contain strong winds.
