There are many types of phobias in the world. I have a phobia which is not common. I am scared of the flame on the candle as...This incident happened when I was two years old. I was celebrating my birthday. My parents bought me a chocolate cake. They also bought me some goodies.
Out of curiousity, I touched the flame. It burned my hand. I cried loudly. My parents tried to console me by singing the birthday song, but to no avail. Finally, they solved the problem by cutting a piece of cake for me. When I saw the cake, I stopped crying and started to eat the cake.
Up till now, I still live with this phobia. I am trying to conquer my fear by...
During my birthday, I will light some candles and place them on the cake. I will stare at the candles and tell myself it is just a small and tiny candle, it would not kill me. After that, I will blow the candle.
I am getting braver day by day. I believe that I will overcome my fear soon.
