Fear of buttons

I hate buttons since i was baby. The thought of B*^t*ns drives me
crazy (sometimes screaming, trying to escape, vomitting can be the
result)It's funny cus none of my friends/relatives have this silly
phobia. Being in elementary and high school was a horror in my life.
I tried to skip my year 12 (thank god i did) so i did't have to
suffer longer (No more wearing plastic butt*ned uniform ). I'm 19
and still afraid of B**t*ns I realize that this phobia affects my
social life. Once i quitted my job cus of the 'B**ton*'
requirment...well, twice. I'm also very picky about choosing bf (no
matter how good looking/rich/loving the b**ton* lover guy is..the
answer is always no or 'have u ever heard of zip?'). I know it's a
bad attitude but i'm so helpless. Is there any market out there for
this phobia? or maybe a community without B****** on earth? I'd love
to live there .I dont think i will experience 'happily ever after'
concept in my life if i can't find the cure:(
I hope andre agassi doesn't wear B******ed clothes.

Haven't heard of any treatments. I don't believe phobias can be genetic since all fears (withthe exception of falling, I believe) are learned. That's odd...
