Hi
I've just finished watching the BBC programme about the lady
suffering with a phobia of the disgusting little plastic things,
thought I'd have a look if there were any more out there, and came
across this group!

I remember hating the things from a very young age (I'm 28 now) - my
mum always found it funny and would say things like "I'm going to
find you something with lots of b's on" whilst out shopping. I always
figured it's just because I'm weird!

It doesn't affect me in the same way as the lady on the programme -
it's more of a disgust than a fear. I see them as slimy and dirty -
just typing this now is making me want to wash my hands. I can't
touch them - even pictures of them - and if it happens accidentally I
feel like I have slime on my fingers and have to wash my hands as
soon as possible to get rid of the residue (even you lot are probably
thinking I'm weird now!)

I'd love to be able to get over this as I know there's a whole world
of clothes I'm missing out on.....

Glad to be a part of your group!
