[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I suffer from trypophobia so basically anything w/multiple bumps or holes give me extreme anxiety. 😥

Or make me feel ill at ease.

For instance I saw many of those weird pumpkins this Halloween, the ones w/all those chickenpox-like bumps & they made me feel itchy.
Or if I see a tree covered in holes where a woodpecker pecked that also makes me shudder.[/quote]

I agree!  Anything with holes gross me out.  I need to change lanes when I’m behind any kind of truck with pipes. The little holes at the end gross me out.   I can’t figure out why.  My mom felt the same way![/quote]

Same with me. So much that I have nightmares about it. Recently someone near me was eating a pomegranate and I got so queasy I had to leave.

I read that it’s hypothesized the fear comes from aversion to skin diseases. The idea being if someone has a skin disease with a bunch of bumps and clusters, you’ll be grossed out and stay away. Funny enough, both my kids have had molluscum badly, so I was grossed out by my own kids for over a year. [/quote]

You are not alone!

While it varies with different people, I also start feeling itchy, even sometimes scratching my arms because I experience such discomfort when I see clusters of bumps or a group of holes.
And yes, I agree it is definitely an aversion to skin afflictions for me.

-&gt; I first noticed this bothered me while watching a movie (cannot remember the name?)
Michael B. Jordan’s character was covered in multiple bumps all over his chest and body and when that scene came on, I felt this unusual sense of extreme discomfort &gt; it was almost unbearable for me to watch the rest of the movie because I just couldn’t unsee it after that![/quote]

+1
Yes he was a superhero in that movie.
I hated that scene as well and cannot recall that film but seeing him all covered in those bumps made me squirm![/quote]
