I cant stand to look at it, and i never touch it or let it touch me. It makes me sick to my stomach and i get very aggitated.

Oh my gosh, i hate it. When i feel it in my hands, it makes me shudder. Or when my friend tells me to hold her necklace for a second, im like, OH HELL NO. Also, whwn i was little, whenever my mom would say "necklace" i would scream. Lol. It just feels really wierd, and its lile nails on a chalkboard to me.
jewellery phobia by: Anonymous
My whole life I've hated to think about, look or even (cringe) touch jewelery. I lose my appetite if I'm eating with someone who is wearing a necklace, ring, bracelet or earrings that are made of metal. I remember being forced to wear a gold bracelet at a young age for a family event, and I couldnt even do it. Even while I type this right now I cringe at the thought. Everyone thinks I'm weird because of this. What is this phobia called?
fear of jewelry by: chris T
I had it my whole life and family has teased me thought I was the only one. I don't like to touch it or dangly busy pieces makes me gag
I so agree by: Anonymous
You are definitely not alone, not only do all objects in this category make me feel sick, I hate looking at it, will scratch my damn skin off if I accidentally touch any, and I cannot even stand to hear or say the words describing these objects. I do not believe that there is a name for it. That's ok though, it would probably be a name that would sound similarly greasy and disgusting to me. LOL So glad I am not alone!
We are not alone! by: Betty
Oh Lord yes! Anything that comes close to me makes me feel physically sick! It's not just personal adornments either, it's all sorts of things, i can't pull the plug out of a bath & my flesh literally crawls when i have no choice but to get in to a bath that has a plug chain on it....as far as i'm concerned, the water is contaminated! I also have a lot of trouble sitting near anyone with it on, or walking behind them. I have a strange fear that it's contaminating the very air around it! I'm a 40 year old woman & i have had this fear since i can remember. I've also had some memorable moments on holiday when stall owners lunge at you with it & it comes close to fisty-cuffs in fear!

Yes. by: Anonymous
Just the other day I realized I had a phobia of jewelry, and I've had it all my life. I never thought twice about it being a phobia, nor did I want people to know about it. I had always just touched it, or looked at it and dealt with the discomfort. A couple days ago I thought this could be a phobia I have, and others might have it too. I'm glad to find out other people are as weird as I am.Thanks

I thought i was the only one that felt this way by: Anonymous
I have the same feelings. I thought I was the only person and everyone thinks im crazy. When i was little i use to see my sister put her neclace in her mouth and it just makes me sick to this day. I don't want to touch or even look at any type of metal jewelry. Is there a name bor this phobia?
nasty by: Anonymous
I always thought I was weird for feeling this way! I hate jewelry, it's so gross. Earrings and rings especially freak me out. I will not touch it and I just shutter from the sight or even the thought of it. eww eww eww. I don't even like talking about it. I can deal with bracelets and necklaces but it can't be real gold or silver. I don't know why! and if i do wear a necklace it has to be very long and stop near my belly button. WHAT'S THIS PHOBIA, if it's even a phobia, CALLED?
So do i by: charyen
i have that fear as well... i don't feel like overcoming it it disgusts me always... i mean jewelry
I have the same phobia! :O by: Anonymous
I too feel the same about jewellery. I hate it apart from earrings they're not too bad but it really makes me feel sick - and when people put it in their mouths - just as you described, disgusting! I really don't like coins either - I think it must be because I don't like jewellery. I really wanna know if there is a name for it.
