Fear of Wrists   Message List

i am very afraid of the undersides of my (and other peoples) wrists.
it has gotten worse lately and all i can think to do is cover them up
with my jacket (witch i am ALWAYS were when i leave the house, no
sure if thats another phobia.) or where bracelets. it doesnt bother
me much to where jewlry on my arms as long as its lose (unless its a
wrist band then i dont want it to me lose) ive tryed whereing watches
but it bands freak me out because there either to tight or lose
enought to move around and turn so that the clock is facing down. im
not sure where my phobia actually came from. I think it is becasue
wrists seems to show veins and it looks very sensitve. when i was
little i had dreams that my wrist were cut or something that results
in damage to my wrists. i dont tell alot of people about my phobia
becasue they always show me there wrists and put it in my face ect.
so i stopped telling people (except my really good friends, thought
they dont have a very different reaction but i have to make them
understand how seriouse it is to me so that they dont tease me, that
doesnt always work)

i get very light headed when i think about wrists and i have an
automatic reaction. whenever i feel unsafe or anxiouse i curl my
wrists inward and fold them either under my arms pressed into my body
or i pull down my sleaves and grab my wrists with my oposite hand so
they are both covered.

if you know anything that can help me or just wanna talk to me about
my phobia (or yours) just reply to this post.

Hello, you replied to my story about my phobia of wrist and I'm glad that we both know we're not alone. Like you said, we have many of the same problems. When...
