How do you feel when you imagine being submerged in water? Is your inner mermaid thrilled by the idea (wish I could be part of that woooooorld), or do you consider yourself much more of a land creature? If thinking about ships and submarines that are resting peacefully at the bottom of the ocean brings you immense anxiety, you just might have submechanophobia. (Try saying that 5 times fast!)
Submechanophobia has some scary and interesting posts. The pics range from flooded cities to underwater buildings. If you’re not afraid of water, these pics might change your mind.
