I'm anthophobic, meaning I'm afraid of flowers. I'm not afraid of plants entirely, I have owned cacti and succulents in the past and they are for the most part ok. Though they usually end up dead because I'm less nurturing than a desert. It's mainly the petal + colorful parts of flowers that just throw me into a complete panic. I don't go to school on valentines day. I also have trouble eating broccoli sometimes if I think about what it is too much. I can usually eat it when its in something but by itself, I look at those tiny green buds and start to sweat and my heart starts racing... If you didn't know, broccoli florets are just flower buds, they are yellow flowers.

Anyway, thought I'd post here to see if anyone else is the same way and how it affects you.
