JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 1 day agoI think trypophobia is a “meme” phobia on the internet.
Like how everyone says “oh that’s my OCD”. It’s not really OCD (and it’s somewhat demeaning to people that do really have OCD), they’re just picky/finicky/particular.
Same with trypophobia. It may be a crippling phobia to a small amount of people, but it’s unsettling at most to a lot of people. Like that. Lots of people don’t have a serious phobia around a bunch of holes (some people do, I’m not saying it’s not real)…it just makes them feel really uncomfortable in a weird and almost indescribably reason.

Fun fact: Caulrophobia (fear of clowns) is more common than arachnophobia, if we ignore how serious a reaction usually is in deciding what to cw, we better be ready to hide all Balatro screenshots.
