How do I get rid of Trypophobia psychologically? I saw a nasty picture starting w/ a nipple photoshopped with lotus seed pod.?
And please don't show more pictures. I'm really freaked out already and feel disgusted.

Trypophobia isn't recognized as a serious phobia ; rather, it's an instinctual phobia that everybody posesses to a certain degree. If you experience panic attacks, compulsive thoughts..etc then I would seek medical help, while keeping in mind that there aren't any useful resources specifically for trypophobia. Unless you have childhood trauma from lotus seeds or other objects covered with holes, it isn't likely to be a real phobia (according to most psychologists, atleast)

You cannot get rid of it at least I don't think so. Whenever I look at a really bad picture, I get panic attacks. So basically, I just avoid it. However, sometimes, at school there's just something I can't face and ya...it goes pretty bad.

Same thing happened to me....let yourself think about! the more you try to block it out the worse it gets. dont look at anymore of the pictures but at night when the image keeps you from sleeping....just let it come in your mind. youll be fine in two weeks.

Have you talked to a doctor?
Please read the Bible. Fear God, and all of your other phobias will diminish, with His help.
