myladyyawo 0 Posted April 29, 2010 Sweetie, I struggle with a few phobia's myself. I feel that the best way to get rid of them is to face it head on. Just keep telling yourself that they are just costumes and it is nothing to be afraid of. I completely understand when you say that you know you shouldn't be afraid but you can't help it. To tell you the truth I'm afraid of Dinosaurs (Yes I know they do not roam the earth lol) but something about the T-Rex in the Movie Jurassic park freaks me out something awful I actually get anxiety attacks and can't breath. Even if I see a small picture I still jump and can't look at it. I know that this really isn't a lot of help, but I find that especially with spiders if I face my fear ( I had to because I cannot imagine them getting close to my kids lol) I can can control my anxiety enough not to focus on the fear.

smorkle 0 Posted April 29, 2010 question for you.what is it about the people in costumes that scares you? is it the fact that you can't see them or that you don't know who they are really? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I cant see their faces...Even if i did know who it was and i saw their faces, id still be scared because i remember last year when i went on holiday...Someone was dressed up as anxious the elephant and they took their mask...well head gear off in the loos...and i was even speaking to them while they where wearing their suit....But once they put their headgear back on...i froze and couldnt move...I felt like crying....I just ran out of the door!.....Its seriously embarasing tho.OMG what is wrong with me!
