Is it normal to be completely freaked out by birds?

Is it? I mean, whenever I see a bird around me, my heart stops and I can't think of anything but methods to make that bird disappear. My friends thinks it's funny, but I am so scared of them and of their feathers. I find their feathers so gross, it makes me puke. I think it all started when I was 8 years old and a rooster attacked me, jumped on my head. I have no problem watching pictures of birds, but when I see one in real life, I get crazy. I'm sorry for the bird-lovers out there, I wish I could love birds too, because I love all the other animals.

    I could see why if you played too much resident evil.

    I don't think what you're describing is normal at all for anyone except people diagnosed with Ornithophobia. I honestly think it's very sad, because ducks awesome! I wish I had some ducks and a Shetland sheepdog to herd them. I also wish I had more Siamese cats. Oh what a glorious cacophony animal sounds they would make together!

        Sounds like you've got a good thing going there, but I'm more the rat lover than hamster type. It seems like everytime I meet to hamster it bites me.

          I feel you. My dear little CeCe (hamster's name) was so scared when I bought her home, she used to bite me whenever I tried to touch her. But I made her understand that I am no threat so now she loves me!

            Oh okay, rats are usually pretty easy. I've heard that hamsters are kinda grumpy if you wake them up when they're sleeping. Rabbits are super cute when they're little, but they get kinda cray when they're big.

    You should see if your health insurance will cover a therapist and work on that.

    what the fuck. birds are love birds are life. i am freaked out at you for not loving birds, they are my children.

    maybe try getting more use to them by being near birds for a few minutes everyday until you start ferling more comfortable with them?

    btw bird feathers are soft as fuck, it's like petting a smooth but soft dog. i love my birds
