HI,
Until i got to the age of about 10, i had a HUGE fear for bangs whether it was fireworks or crackers. i couldn't go anywhere near balloons and if they pop i would hide crying for ages lol.
it got so bad that just the sound of when you crack appart yoguort pots was unbearable.
im not so bad now though. im still jumpy to unexpected bangs -(which i hate) and im still conscience around balloons. Plus- i hate thunder and lightning but appart from that i managed to get over my phobia- not sure how. Maybe i just grew out of my phobia.
