Phobia of balloons

I just wanted to admit it, although haven't had experiences as of late..

Since I was little I've had a horrible phobia of balloons. Like I think it's more of the popping noise or expecting it to always burst, but I also developed a fear of just being NEAR them. It sets me into a panic, especially in Elementary where I felt like I was having a panic attack and had to go to the nurses office.

Does anyone else have this sort of fear? Some of my family thinks its silly.

Hi!

Just wanted to let you know you are not alone. I've had the fear of balloons since I was young. I think it is the noise too because of my fear of fireworks also. I am so bad I don't like to open those biscuit canisters. I know... I feel silly.

I can be around them but I get very nervous if I think the balloon is going to pop. I can't stand being around when someone is inflating them in the store. I am a nervous wreck during those times. Lol.
