toilets: fear of

when i was little, my older sister told me that ifi sat on the toilet i would get sucked in, i believed it and started going to the bathroom in the waste basket.

When I was small and i used the toilet, after i was done once i flushed it when i was sitting on the toilet and water splashed on my bum so i thought a monster was going to come out of the toilet and kill me.

i used to think anytime you took a dump at night that the turd would turn into some kind of monster and shove crap in your mouth until you turned into a turd yourself haunting anyone who dared to take a dump in the middle of the night.thats corrupted i was as a young child.

i used to think that toilets had a claw in them and if i stayed on for too long the claw would grab my butt or something else..so i never pooped in the toliet...instead i pooped in the bath tub. keep in mind i was a young child, not a grown adult

I used to believe that when you went poo in the toilet that Freddy was waiting inside and wuld reach up and scrape the poo from your bottom. I was afraid to use the bathroom and to this day never told my parents why.
I think it had something to do with the movie Ghoulies. LOL

I was pretty freaked out by the whole bathroom in general when I was little. I could never go to the bathroom without the shower curtain completely open. The linen closet door had to be completely closed. The weirdest thing I would do was cover the hole/drain in toilet bowl with toilet paper before I would sit down to go. So there were little squares of toilet paper floating neatly in the middle of the toilet water. I guess I was convinced that something could come up and get me and (of course!) the toilet paper could keep that from happening. Obviously my theory was "if I can't see it, it isn't there". What an idiot!

When I was little, my Mother had a hard time getting me potty trained and couldn't figure out the reason. It was later to be revealed that I watched the movie, "Nerds" and saw a snake coming out.

after watching 'The Little Mermaid' (a Disney film) i was traumatised by Ursula (the big scary half witch half octopus thing) and i used to believe (dont ask me why) that when I was at home, after I flused the loo one of her long tenticled arms would come and chase me and try to take me away from home to her secret underground cavern. I would wash my hands and sprint out of the bathroom terrified everytime. As I got older, the monster changed from Ursula to the Phantom (from Phantom of the Opera).
I still don't like spending more time than in neccessary in the bathroom..

One day I heard my mom talking to her friend about snakes coming out of the toilet...and when i heard that every time i had to pee i had to check the toilet and flush it a couple times to make sure that the snake wasnt gonna get me.

When i was like, 5, i thought that toilets (and bathtubs) would suck you up if you flushed them and stood too close. so when i went in public bathrooms, i would get done, unlock and open the door, flush and run out quickly

Being the youngest of four children, I was the object of much cruelty. The worst was when my brother, who is 7 years older, told me that there is a witch in the toilet. He told me that she will come out to eat me if I flush. I still wonder if she's in there...

i used to think that a hand with red manicured fingernails would grab me from under when i used the toilet. needless to say, i could never sit on a toilet for an extended period of time.

I used to believe that when you sat on the toilet, there would be a knife that stabbed your butt if you put to much toiletpaper in it, and if they didn't have a knife, they'd use a shark to bite you, and if they didn't have that, they'd get a clown and it would grab you down the toilet.

When I was little I used to believe that if you didn't make it to the living room before the toilet finished flushing something would get me. I still run outta habit though...

when i was little, i was afraid to use the bathroom because my older bro and sis told me that when i had to pee, little green men in the toilet would jump up and bite my "pee pee" and when i had to poo, there was a snake that would jump and bite my butt.

When I was little, I used to think that when you flushed the toilet, you were allowing the dead spirits to come after you. (The pets flushed down the toilet.) Every time I flushed, I would run out. And one day I tripped and started crying and screaming. When my grandma came and asked what was wrong, I told her, "The spirits are after me!"

When I was little I remember seeing something on TV about a snake being in a woman's toilet. Ever since then I used to think that if you took too long to poop, a snake would come out of the hole at the bottom where everything flushes down. I used to periodically look and see if anything was down there before I was done, I'd sometimes leave the bathroom with my heart racing.

It wasn't till I got a little older I realized that it's pretty much impossible for snakes to get through the pipes.
