Phobias

So I got bored recently and decided to look up phobias, since everyone is scared of something(even if we don't want to admit it).  So I figured I'd share a bit with you guys since I haven't posted anything in a while...

Also, thanks to this, I finally found out why I always instinctively react by KOing the doctors who try to use needles on me(I actually warn them that I have to be unconcious every time I go to get a shot or have bloodwork done).

It's a combination of Pistanthrophobia(the fear of trusting others) and Trypanophobia(the extreme fear of medical procedures involving injections and hypodermic needles).

Trypanophobia: I don't know why I hate needles to be quite honest, but I always have.  Couple that with my Martial Arts Program and the results arent pleasant... for the doctors that don't listen to my warnings anyway.

Pistanthrophobia: I've always had trust issues IRL because I'm VERY overprotective of those I am close to and thus need to ensure I trust the right people... as a VERY extreme example(one I pray to every Deity in every possible religion that it NEVER comes to be); if I had a terrorist organization's leader on my list of trusted people WWIII would be one of the BETTER scenarios - yes, if I had access to such an organization's resources I would be that dangerous due to my strategic mind...  think Batman, Sherlock Holmes, Professor X combined with the personality of Ras Al Gul, Deadpool, and Moriarty.

Luckily on that last one I can confirm that I usually have a good judge of character which has only been wrong no more than ten times in my entire life...  maybe even no more than five, but that may be pushing it since I can't remember EVERYTHING from my 24 years on this planet.
