fear of

i used to be terribly afraid that when i flushed the toilet late at night when nobody else was awake burglars would view the flushing of the toilet as their cue to come running up the stairs and frighten me.(i was terrified of burglars when i was younger.)

For a long time, I was afraid to go to sit on the toilet because I feared that Satan would come up from the hole while I was pooing.

Since Satan's in hell and at the time, I thought toilets had pipes going deep underground, I just assumed he would try to rise through a pipe.

When I was little, flushing the toilet was the scariest thing in the world to me. I distinctly remember RUNNING out of bathroom stalls -- especially the ones with the really LOUD "flushers" -- to avoid having the toilet overflow and drown me in a bathroom full of raging toilet water, complete with rats, dragons, spiders, and of course, all the world's sewage. (You know, come to think of it, I'm not really sure I've overcome that fear.) :)

When I was about 10 I learned about sharks, and they terrified me. To this day I have trouble swimming in deep water (including fresh water - hey, you never know!).
But when I was little I thought all water was kept inside the world, in like a big resevoir, and I grew convinced that a shark could come up my toilet and bite my bum. I became very speedy in using the loo, and to this day I don't linger there. For some reason I wasnt' afraid of any other creature getting up the toilet pipes, only sharks.

I believed (and am still a bit skiddish today) about using the toilet after flushing a dead fish. I always thought they you come back up and attack my butt for flushing them.

Don't ask me how this belief got started, but I always feared the outhouses at the local campground. I was convinced that this was where lobsters lived and while you sat down to do your business, they would reach up and pinch your butt!

When I was in 1st grade, our teacher read a book about an alligator in a toilet. From that day on I feared that I'd be eaten by an alligator if I didn't go pee fast enough!

When I was lil I believed that if I didn't go to the bathroom in the toliet that it would become enraged and attack me in my sleep.

The Toliets coming tO take me away!!

I used to be afraid to go in the public bathrooms with the automatic flushers because I thaught they would suddenly flush and suck me in, too!

I used to beleive that if I was looking
in a toilet hole,Two little yellow eyes would stare up at me and attack.


stupid huh?

Im not here

Well when i was littler my friend used to play this game Mortal Combat. Now me being a little sheltered child i was scared of half the things in that video game. There was this one character (the name escapes me) who would rip the skin off of his/her opponents. Shortly after i witnessed that i watched Spice World. The part where the spy dude comes out from the toilet. Well somehow i combined those two ideas together and came up with the solution that a monster lived in the sewers and if I didn't flush the toilet, wipe my butt, and zip up my pants all before the toilet finished flushing the monster would come and rip the skin off my bum. Lots of rushing when it came to bathroom time.

I used to think that there's a furry ape in the toilet and if you don't be careful the ape will grab your ass and pull you down. I couldn't poo in quite a time, it was horrible!

Anti-Nake Ape

i used to think if i did not get out of the bathroom quick enough after flushing the toilet a monster would come out and eat me.

i used to believe that little spiders lived in the toilet and whenever you went poop or pee it would kill the spiders. Whenever you just sat there on the toilet then they would come up and bite you and eat you up. Suprisingly im still alive. lol

iused to believe if when i sat on the toilet little spiders would come up and crawl up my butt and all the way up to my brain and eat it.(if it was still there!)lol.

When I was younger, I used to believe that when I flushed the toilet, that some kind of something would come up and take me down with them!!

Anon

I believed snakes lived in the toilet... I hovered over the toilet so the snakes could not jump out and get me! I still hover unless I am at home on my safe, clean toilet.

roxygirl

I always used to believe if i sat down fully on the toilet so that it went completely dark a witch woudl come out of the toilet and bite my bum :P

Had me terrified and purching on toilets for years!

When I was a kid and got up in middle of the night to go to the bathroom, I believed that I had to be out of the bathroom before the toilet finished flushing or the room would turn into an elevator and would go down into the earth and trap me there forever.
