Ombrophobia – fear of rain…….
Well, not actually that bad. But whenever it rains hard, I got this very uncomfortable feeling.
It was raining hard this afternoon, I was about to go to sleep (I work graveyard), when the heavy rain poured. Then this feeling came to me… I want to hide under the table or something. Though I can manage that feeling, and was able to close the windows and go to bed (my wife and son is already asleep), I wasn’t able to sleep. A few days ago, I was already sleeping when the rain poured (heavy rain). I was so startled that as soon as I heard that it is raining I jumped up (almost literally) from the bed. But since I am already sleeping then, it took not more than 30 minutes for me to go back to sleep. But this afternoon, it took me an hour (or more) before I was able to get to sleep.
I really don’t know why I feel like this. Can’t remember of anything “bad” that happened to me during my childhood when it is raining hard.
Well… I wasn’t able to sleep properly, so I am “groggy” today…. Have to take in some coffee…
i have also a phobia if there is a heavy rain and too much dark (alone or even i am not alone)i got this phobia when i was still a child my parents used to leave me at home and nobody was around just me there comes the heavy rain and no light at my room i got to develop this fear my heart beats fast and i really dont know what am i gonna do…much better now im trying to overcome my phobia through slowly coping up with the situation everytime i sleep i put a lamp at my bedside and pray that nothing bad would not happened…
