Button Phobia

Revised: May 22, 2007

Sorry, long time no post! I haven’t been much of an internet presence in the respect of publishing blog entries and the likes. However, I recently discovered something very interesting and realised a way I could represent it to the internet.

Button Phobia

Yes, this is the latest part of my phobia series… however, I haven’t yet managed to find a word for it, but I know it is very real.

The phobia is of buttons a lot like the one shown above, the little plastic ones that are present on shirts. It involves nausea at the touch or even sometimes the sight of buttons or even talking about them can cause problems… ESPECIALLY when ‘disembodied’ (my way of trying to make “sitting on the floor by itself” sound scientific!)

So since I discovered this fascinating and unexplainable phobia I’ve wanted to show the world (or a small part of it at least) that it’s a real phobia and if you get feelings like this it’s not just you and you may actually have this phobia…
