Hi I have an irrational fear of bones to me it still seems perfeltly reasonable when i was a child i thought evryone had it. Skelitons where somthing to fear, as somthing used in horror films etc.
Ive not come across anyone else ever who fears this (evern the technical term ostiophobia is not recognised by spelling dictionarys) So it seems a realy strance phobia to have. Ive managed to dull it down in recent years, if i expose my self to an individal image or a specific bone i can tolorate it (I can now wear a t-shirt with a cartoon skeliton on it)
Obviously this is not somthing that affects me day by day so i can live with it ok i dont regularly come into contact with bones and can accept that they are inside me. Im just curios if anyone has expirienced this or has any further infomation about this?
