I can't even remember what happened, but when I was little I had a rather traumatic experience involving monkeys. As a result I am immensely afraid of them. Is it normal?

      My last account screwed up really badly and I was unable to retrieve it, so I'm using a new one now. Thanks for the advice, I really appreciate it!:)

    intense phobias are not normal. but if you had a bad experience with a monkey, especially at a young age, it is understandable. luckily, how often do you meet monkeys? probably you can live a normal life.

    It's normal to have a phobia based on a traumatic experience in the past.
