fear of

When I was little, and my mom was trying to potty train me, my grandad and my uncles (who weren't much older than me) told me that there was a potty monster and if I sat on the toilet, it would come and get me.

When I was about 6 we moved to a house that had an outside toilet, I was very afraid of going there at night and thought that the devil would bite my bum whilst I was sitting on it.

When i was young, I sat on the toilet for ages, and fell asleep! When I woke up I wiped my bum and somehow managed to pull out a long, brown thing, a bit like a massivly long worm...
I was convinced from that day on that if you sat on the toilet for long enough you got attacked by the "bog worms"!

I'm too embarressed to say...

When I was really little, I was really scared to use to toilet sometimes because I believe that somehow a SQUIRREL was going to come up out of the toilet and bite my bottom while I was using it!

Just before bed, I used to go and do the toilet, wash my hands/face, brush my teeth, then open the bathroom door as far as it would go, and turn the bathroom light out (the hall light was enough to see with door wide open).
I then sneaked over to the toilet,flushed it, and never looked back. I ran as fast as possible to my room, slammed the door behind me, dived under the covers and tensed my whole body, trying not to breath or make any sounds. All in case the monster that came out of the toilet found me.
I had a troubled childhood.

When I was 6, i used to believe the flushing sound a toilet made was caused by a toilet monster. Every time i went into a public bath room, I would run out of the bathroom saying " there is a monster in the toliet!!!!! run for your lives!"

I used to believe that snakes lived in all toilets and while I was sitting on the toilet, a snake would either bite my ass and/or crawl inside my asshole. It's definately a disgusting thought, and I'm not surprised that I was scared of that--but I don't know why snakes would live in the toilet. Probably, because they're the shape and size of the hole in the toilet?

duh

they used to have that stupid commercial on tv where the toilet was green, monster-looking, and could talk. that just heightened my fear of the toliet as a kid. i remember always running out of the bathroom after flushing.

when i was, like, seven or eight, i used to beleive that my scarey looking dolls lived in the toilet. So when ever i went to the bathroom, I turned around and check if they were there ready to pounce on me and rip me to shreds!

brit

i had a terrible fear of flushing the toilet of the airplane becuz of the loud suction sound. i believed it was strong enough to suck me in and throw me out of the plane! i know it won't now, but i still hate the sound!

When I was little and we used to have family reunions, we always had them in this old creepy looking cabin at the park. The bathrooms were downstairs and the lightbulbs were always burned out. For some reason, there were only urinals. So whenever I had to go to the bathroom, my mom would take me down there. The first time I saw the "weird potties", I freaked and refused to sit on them, convinced that they would eat my butt. So my mom always had to walk me all the way to the other side of the park to use the "safe potties"

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.

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.

Toilet Girl

I used to believe that there was a giant, snake-like monster with huge teeth in the sewer. when he heard th toilet flush, he would come slithering from wherever he was to try to eat you. I would always jump off the toilet as soon as i was done. but I was always afraid the monster would kill my dad, because he flushed two or three times every time he went!

claire

I used to believe there was a witch living in my toilet and if someone went to the bathroom and didn't wipe then she'd wave her wand and they'd get a rash. I was also terrified that one day she'd reach her hand out of the tube and claw my butt.

I used to think that after I flushed the toilet I had to run as fast as I could out of the bathroom, praying, because if I didn't the Devil would be able to come up thorough the pipes.

when i was little, my grandmother always told me that snakes could climb up the pipes to the toilet and bite me. i was always cautious when using the bathroom and i would do it as quickly as i could and i would jump up off of the toilet to make sure that there wasnt a snake in the it.

When I was little, I used to have a special plastic seat that I used on the toilet. I believed that this prevented me from falling in the toilet. I thought that since I was just a kid, my bum was too small and I'd fall inside the toilet and my bum would get stuck and a firefighter would have to come to our house and pull me out. At that time I believed that if I fell inside the toilet and flushed it, that I'd get sucked down the drain and never see my family again.
