Anyone develop a phobia?

By 24hbipolar2 Thursday, January 24, 2008
I just wanted to throw a question out there....has anyone developed a phobia of some kind?  I know I'm being vague, but i recently develped a phobia to the shower/water.  This is so weird.  When I get in I begin to panic and can't wait to get out.  I have had a history long ago of panic attacks but not in the past 5 years.  I get nauseated when I walk by the shower and don't even like to give my 3 year old a bath.  I still am hygenic, thank you, but it is so uncomfortable to get in water...even the bathtub is very unapealing.  This has just become noticable in the past month or so.  I thought it might be related to a little depression but that seems to have moved on and the uneasyness still clings to me.  I feel so weird...like, what is up, anyway??  Maybe i have rabies.Blink

Dear 24hbipolar2,

 

I would recommend seeing your psychiatrist/psychologist if this persists much longer.  If you are taking medications, perhaps this is a side effect, but if not, it is worth checking into.

 

Best of Luck,

Holly
