Cringe Worthy

Guys, have you heard of "Trypophobia"? 
Typing the word alone gives me goosebumps.
Please google it, I cannot even try to upload a picture of an example here, I'm sure most of you would never come back to my blog! Lol
I think I have it. I mean I find it really hard to look at bumpy stuff with a lot of tiny holes (criiiiiinge just writing that!!!). It really irritates me when I see it on flowers or skin especially (in pictures).
I'm talking nausea, feeling itchy, it's just really disgusting. However, I'm ok looking at a stack of pipes and I love polka dot prints but theres just something about seeing it (holes) on a living organism, that's what makes me cringe.
Initially when I noticed I thought it was just me being a bush person (showing some illiterate traits or whatever), but I just found out it's an actual phobia. I still feel a tiny bit awkward just because I've always thought having a phobia for something isn't "normal" (normal being a very relative word here). But I also really hate spiders and cockroaches especially, and that's a phobia too.

Am I the only one who feels this way about holes?
Do you have any other phobias? 

Side note: What do you think of the word "normal", is there such a thing?

  6. Have always subscribed to the mindset that normality is overrated. It may exist, but is hyped beyond imagination
