fear of

When I was younger I used to think that when I flushed the toilet and when there would be a loud noise, a monster was coming and I had to rush out of the washroom before it came out of the toilet.

When I was younger I used to think that when I flushed my fish down the toilet it would come back and haunt me when i'm going to the bathroom.

When I was younger I used to think that when I was going potty then somebodies hand (or something) would come out of the hole in the toilet.

I used to beleive that "things" lived in the toilet and i would never go in without the light on and i would try to get out as quickly as i can.

WHEN I WAS YOUNG, I THOUGHT THAT WHEN I FLUSHED THE TOILET, THE POOPIE WOULD DIE, AND I WAS SCARED THAT THE POOPIES GHOST WOULD COME BACK TO HAUNT ME FOREVER. DOH!

Working the nursery at church is always fun, but awhile back we had one little girl who thought that Satan lived in a cabnet in the girls bathroom so everytime she needed to go potty we had to take her into the boys bathroom... good thing it was a small church!

i used to think that a giant snake would come out of the toilet when i flushed it. so for awhile i didn't flush the toilet until my mom told me that i had to. so i would flush it and then run out really quickly trying to escape to giant snake.

When I was a little girl, I thought that a monster lived in the toilet. I was so scared when I would wake up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom. I thought that if I didn't run to my bed by time the toilet stopped running after I used it the monster would come and get me.

My brother told me that when you flushed the toilet, a hand came out and grabbed you. In a catalouge, there was a toy toilet, and if you pressed a button, a hand would come out. I was really scared of that (but my brother teased me about it) and I didn't flush the toilet for ages. Even now, I still run out of the toilet room really quickly when I flush the toilet (I am only 12, though)

When I was little, my sister (who is evil) convinced me that there was a monster in the toilet that sustained himself by eating poo. I was pretty much consistently constipated until I turned eight, when I thankfully awakened to the fact that she’d been putting me on.

i used to believe that my toilet had a camera in it, that would watch me. no wonder it took me so long tp potty train!

traumatised by toilets

My mom once told me a story about how in florida alligators got get into the sewers and stuff. So for years I was afraid to sit on the toliet and I would constantly be looking down afraid that one would bite my butt!

When I was a child I was terrified to flush the toilet, as I thought the shower would turn on and soak me. I remember using the toilet, washing my hands, opening the door of the bathroom, then flushing the toilet and running out of the room as quick as I could before the shower could turn on.

Mojo!

When I was really little I was always worried about going to the bathroom for 3 reasons;
1. the booger-monster would come out of the toilet and steal my butt.
2. If i flushed the toilet aliens would take over the world and steal my brother.
3. A baby would come out of my butt.

I was a twisted child. Amazingly, I still am.

when i was little and kind of still do have this paranoia that when i go to the bathroom in an aquareum that some type of water creature is going to pop out of the toliet and bit me in my butt. i always make sure i have gone to the the bathroom before i visit an aquareium

i used to be so afraid of toilets. i literally believed that captain hook lived in our toilet, and he would come up the drain and poke me in the bottom with his hook. In order to keep from getting peed on, he had an umbrella around his wrist and he would just have the hook sticking out the top. how wierd...where in the world would I have gotten that from?

When I was little, my Mother had a hard time getting me potty trained and couldn't figure out the reason. It was later to be revealed that I watched the movie, "Nerds" and saw a snake coming out.
