Re: Fear of Water Towers, Watertowers


Hi-
My name is Jenny--
I have a friend who is terrified of water towers too.
it is a bit uncommon, however the old wooden ones do not bother her.
it's the bigger ones with "spidery legs" as she describes them.
She feels silly sometimes because she is a grown women. But at the
same time she takes it very seriously...when she goes any where new
someone else should drive because if she were to pass by a water tower
she may get into in accident-by having an anxiety attack.

I thank goodness that some one else has this fear because she felt
like a fruit cake cause she never heard of anyone else who had this
fear.

~Jenny
