Answer 1

Did you know that you can hang from electrical liens and nothing will happen aslong as you dont touch the ground? its ok to fear electricity i'm a student electrician and I can tell you its very dangerous, touching a live wire hurts alot and can kill you in seconds and you cant let go everyone has fears so dont be embarresed

Answer 2

Sounds like: conductive cylindrical phobia (CCP) to me.
You need to spend time in a Home Depot handling some of the copper tubing there, as well as, any of the other materials and building supplies that you're uncomfortable with.
CCP is often age determined, but seldom lasting.
Handle some of these materials every day and your fears will subside, and hopefully disappear all together.

Answer 3

What is it about pipes that scares you?

Are you afraid of getting hit by the pipe?
Are you afraid something will come out of the pipe and hurt you?
Are you afraid the pipe will burst and hit you somehow?

Identifying exactly what it is about your fear-object that worries you is the first step to taking a rational objective look at your problem.

Answer 4

I always had a fear of washing dishes in my home arts classroom, in a specific sink because weird accidents kept happening to me (I accidentally cut myself on a knife and didn't know it until 10 minutes later, and I almost burned my hand and leg my picking up and dropping a hot tray, which would have hit my lower leg, excpet i moved out of the way before it hit the floor.)

Answer 5

I have those same fears! I have never met anybody else that has had the same ones as me! Plz email me and we can talk. But I guess I'm scared of them cuz we had a earthquake and the pipes busted and the cords blew up. So yea.

Answer 6

I am affraid of electricity, like if I'm putting on a wash in the washing machine I'm affraid the washing machine is going to blow up my house, and a microwave or oven catching on fire. Sharks, dolls, clowns, antique stores..... they creep me out for some reason.

Answer 7

Its simple...its possible that in your last life..u died by way of electricity or strangled by wires..something like that. Your soul is still clinging on to that and cant let go. You need to face this fear so that those after you may live happier.

Answer 8

I know they have names for all kinds of phobias. Yours is interesting. How old were you when it started or have you always had that? I'm only scared of snakes and other reptilian like creatures.

Answer 9

I think, it is deep that that. Fear is the effect. There must be a psychological cause for that.. You need to see your psychiatrist.
