I think itd be ok with my friends if I shared the proper name for my fear of birds Ornithophobia, described as an irrational or abnormal fear of birds. Most of the time its a fear of certain types, like the obvious types, Vultures, Crows and other sorts of birds of prey fall into that but with me mostly this involves most birds in general. Just something about the whole, feathers, beaks, wings and flapping noises freak me out and even shut me down to where Im not really rational anymore. Before as a kid it was breaking down into fits of terror and crying, where now its...well a little bit of the same but I can hide it better by shakingly walking away and biting my lip. Usually Im used to people being embarrassed to know me or be angry at me for it, or in the worst case scenario like most of high school, having people take advantage of it to get me to scream over a chicken. But yeah mostly this is just a heads up if we hang out ever and I either clutch on really hard or start shuddering n stuttering, mostly because theres a bird near by, its not me trying to suck the fun out of everything or piss anyone off, its me being legitly afraid is all. ...though if past relationships are any indicator, my fear is adorable so that works out I guess.
