Fear of the sound of crackers
I dont know if anyone has ever heard of this fear of the sound of crackers. Normally people enjoy the sound of crackers & want more. Its like a sign of celebration or happiness. But for me its a pain ,i am unable to withstand the sounds, it makes me very nervous & i feel like running away somewhere. Even thoughts of suicide have come through my mind, but i guess i am too chicken to do that.
I have no idea how this started. I dont re-collect having any traumatic incident which could have led to this phobia. All i know is i have had it ever since i was 3-4 years old. Its like grown with me.
