Do any colours upset you?

I know we all have our favourite colours, and most people probably have colours they dislike...but do you have any colours that you dislike so much that it actually causes an emotional response? For example, the colours mauve/dusty rose and sage green actually make me physically anxious, upset, sometimes even a bit angry. I've mentioned this to my husband and he says that it's crazy. Am I nuts?

I'm not saying that I'll have a meltdown if I just see those colours...but for instance, a doctor/dentist office with sage green walls and dusty rose furniture/accents...I see it all the time and I HATE it. something like that is a nightmare for me. The last time I went to the doctor, I had to use all my willpower to not request to be moved to a different coloured room, it was all I could think about. Yeah, I'm definitely a bit nuts. This doesn't seem like rational adult behaviour.

(also, it's not just that I associate those colours with doctor's offices or anything, I can't stand to see that colour used in anyone's personal decorating either. Just...ugh!)

    No, you're not nuts.

    Ive not had this with colours. But with numbers. Like the number 47 makes my shoulders feel quite anxious...

    Im not taking the micky. Im being serious lol.

    I hate the number 4. Its just too sharp and pointy. It seems a bit evil.

    Considering that I love 6's....which is supposed to be the devils number lol. 26 makes me happy. But anything with a 6 is still pretty good.
