McDude's Kind of CoolAuto Break Down Phobia |

� 2001-12-02 - 7:39 p.m. I wonder if a phobia exists for the fear of automobile break down? If so this phobia is definitely a phobia I have. Ever since I had my stalling incidents two weeks ago every crack, whistle, or vibration of my car is exaggerated in my mind ten fold. Every time I am at a stoplight, or accelerate/decelerate, or use defrost, the expectation is that of car failure. I barely use the radio anymore so I can here the next failure before it catches me in an awkward position. My first car was a big rusted out boat that failed on me several times. Despite this I used to venture in the country with girlfriends late at night. The fear of auto failure was outweighed buy my teenage hormones. During the summer of my 18th birthday some friends and I decided to check out an adult bookstore. Visions of myself explaining to my parents how my car died right next to this adult bookstore or right next to an abandoned barn flew through my head the entire time I was in those situations. I could barely enjoy parking with a girl or my first porn shop experience because of my auto break down phobia. I only have a 10-minute commute to work. But I do take long drives on weekends to visit my girlfriend. What would happen if my car died on my trek down state? I don�t have a cell phone because I am too stubborn to buy one. I�d be stranded on the side of the road and some weird guy would pull over and offer me a ride. His car would be loaded with guns, drugs, or maybe it will be a car bomb. A cop will pull the weird guy over and bam I am arrested and convicted of a crime I didn�t commit. I�ll be forced to run like the A-team. But, just like on cops, I�ll be caught with my shirt off shouting gibberish because my auto break down phobia will have the best of me. I need a prescription to keep my auto break down phobia under control. Unfortunately, the prescription requires that you don�t operate heavy machinery while under the influence of the miracle drug. Thus, voiding out any possible benefits. I suppose I�ll just have to suffer with this condition until I am to old to drive. Then, the condition will morph into wheelchair breakdown phobia.
