Belly button phobia can easily be cured.The fear of the Belly Phobia buttons – Omphalophobia For the rarest and least documented phobias, the omphalophobia – the fear of the belly buttons, perhaps exceeds the list. The word is derived from Greek Omphalo which means navel and phobos which means deep fear or fear. People who suffer from omphalophobia are terrified of belly buttons, their own or, in some cases, others. They don't like to touch their navel (or even other people touching it). Sometimes the simple view of the belly button is enough to make them feel upset or terrified. Fear of belly buttons affects men and women alike. The singer Jenny Frost is one of the famous celebrities with this phobia. He always warns people to "never touch his navel." He claims that his fear of belly buttons is persistent and "no joke." Another famous individual with Omphalophobia is Khloe Kardashian who reports that he is "ungusted just touching his belly because of the presence of belly buttons." Causes of Omphalophobia Like other specific phobias, Omphalophobia also begins in its own childhood, particularly derived from a negative or traumatic experience associated with this part of the body. Symptoms of fear of phobia belly buttonsThe phobiaOmphalophobia is a specific phobia that gives rise to a variety of physical and mental symptoms particularly when the phobic (or someone else) accidentally plays his belly buttons, or even seeing someone else touch his own belly. These symptoms include: Quiz:Naturally, this persistent fear of belly buttons can be quite debilitating and can negatively affect everyday life. Overcoming the fear of belly buttons Omphalophobia can be a pretty serious phobia, as constant thoughts on belly buttons can make a cry or feel anxious or nauseous all the time. Unfortunately, many people refuse to seek help for it, however; it is a highly treatable phobia. Several therapies including hypnotherapy, psychotherapy and cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) can help get to the bottom of the phobia. Naturally, these should be done only under the guidance of a trained and experienced therapist. Sometimes, anti-anxiety medications may also be prescribed, especially if the phobic response is very serious or affecting the daily lives of the affected person. However, such medications should not be taken in the long term as they tend to have side effects and only provide symptomatic relief and do not cure phobia. Apart from these therapies, few self-help techniques can also be implemented at home with the love and support of friends and family. These include meditation, positive visualization and gradual desensitization to overcome fear of belly buttons. The latter includes gradually exposing the phobic to its object of fear. Therefore, you can start by looking at a photo of belly buttons, touching it or letting a family member touch it. Deep breathing in these steps can greatly help the phobic overcome omphalophobia. Comments Morgan says I think I can have this phobia. It did not develop until a year ago when I started to have the same recurring dream that my belly button opens and my organs are stacked. I had a few nights of dreams followed for almost two weeks. When I told my boyfriend at the time, he'd try to put his finger in mine, or put his finger in his own boat and move it around. It instantly makes me uncomfortable and cringe. Now a year later I can't even touch my own belly button because somehow it hurts. My friends know about my phobia and try to make me spend all the time, causing me to hyperventilize and temble for a few minutes. I'm trying to get over this by exposure therapy with the help of my current boyfriend. He will touch him slightly or kiss him, but even allowing him to do that takes an hour of me crying and twisting. I trust him, but I'm terrified. Anna says When someone touches or tries to touch my navel, I get instantly defensive and nausea. I can't help it. It makes me creepy to think and talk about it. The fiancé, the children, essentially everyone around me who knows of my fear thinks it's hilarious and tries to run over me. I literally have to cover my BB with my hands to feel any relief from anxiety. Nausea stays for a while. Morgan says My friends always try to make me pass, I hate it. Anon says I suffer from this phobia. I've done since I can remember, although I don't remember any trauma of such a 'trigger'. The reason for this phobia is beyond me, but my sister feels exactly like me. I'm 31. A few years ago, I took off my gallbladder. The most horrifying part was waking up to listen to the surgeon proudly explaining to me that I had gone through my navel (one of the key holes) to extract it and that it was honestly one of the most traumatizing experiences of my life. I can't even think about it without feeling completely squeamish. I hate all the things in the navel and I'm scared when someone comes to mine. Or yours. I don't think some people understand how mortifying it is for me when they play as a joke with their belly buttons in front of me, or try to touch mine to laugh. It's a pretty serious phobia. Although I'm not completely sure it's debilitating to me. Anonymous woman says Mi omfalophobia comes from a series of sexual assaults I experienced when I was 13. My abuser seemed to have a fetish or some other concern with the navel, and they nailed me and headed with me. Since then, every time I see an exposed navel I remember the feeling of being vulnerable and physically restricted and feeling a debilitating anxiety that if someone touches my navel, I will lose agency about what happens to my body. This has given me some intimacy problems over the years. I'm ashamed to tell new partners about this vulnerability and concern they just thought I'm weird. I can't be lying on my back too without feeling restless because I feel that I could easily be raped from this position. A sixth grade says I had to do an essay on this phobia. I laughed at my friends, we all thought it was a joke, but reading all this makes me realize how serious this is. This article was very useful. I hope other people realize this. My father has Omphalophobia and does not like to look or touch belly buttons. I don't know why but he's so upset with the button of his or her belly. Foc says I have this fear and it's very bad. I cry about her and I get into a ball and I feel nauseous but I don't vomit. Belly Horror Show says I've developed this phobia after my father once fucked me in my belly, with a joke, when I was a child. It hurt me for days. It became all red and infected by that stupid coke. I can still remember the pain of hunting, it is really a very strange kind of pain (not only physical, but also psychological, as it instantly makes you crynge). I don't care about the belly buttons of other towns, but I feel weak thinking about mine. The pain that causes my itching comes to my mind. I was just a kid when that happened and now I'm 32 years old. soroush says Sometimes, even when I sleep smart, I'm thinking someone downstairs is trying to put a drill on the roof and could get directly into my button navel! Or maybe someone comes to me when he sleeps and puts a finger on him. Grace says honestly that I've probably been afraid of belly buttons for a few years. I can't bear to look at them. When my friends or my sister wear crop tops I feel very uncomfortable and I start to rub my stomach that usually helps me calm down. Especially outies are my weakness. If I see a girl wearing a cup with an outie or someone in general showing her outie, I feel like I'm gonna show up and I can't concentrate on anything else. Once I went to a university visit, and the guide had what I thought was such a big outie that you could see him coming out of his shirt. Turns out it was just his jeans button, but still. For those forty-five minutes I felt like I was having a panic attack. Reading some of these comments made me really uncomfortable but at the same time consoled because I know that I am not only afraid, but also many others do. Meghan says Maybe try to share this page with everyone who mocks it. Rin says When I was younger they told me that my parents could see on my button navel, which resulted in having to go in and have it stuck. He was too young to remember, but thought persecutes me. My belly buttons constantly have infections coming and going along with a huge sensation queasy if your touch. My father had an umbilical hernia that makes me a pussy too. Lisa says Literally reading this article she was looking at and something weird getting like the heebie jeebies (he wonders how to describe it more). I'm someone who's not really afraid of anything, but if something even my pants touch my button oblique gag. It's the weirdest thing. The only ones who even know they're my two adult daughters are my closest confidants. I honestly don't think I've told my 25-year-old husband. Every night I struggle to sleep because my pajamas pants or sweat would clutter my navel and make me sick. Upstairs I have a congenital disease of connective tissue so sleeping is already horribly painful. Anyway, it's nice to know that I'm not the only person with this strange condition. Thanks for this article and thanks to all the pages of ppl. Aman Jan says I also have phobia of belly buttons. But I think mine is linked to stomach acidity. Every time I feel acidity in the stomach increases the intensity of the phobia. I don't even like talking about this weird button. Brian says he was intimate with a woman recently and actually put his tongue in mine! It happened so fast or I would have stopped it. This was 3 days ago and I'm still so upset and upset about it. I feel like we're all suffering from this, but I feel better knowing I'm not the only one. Maryan says I've been so terribly scared of my own belly button for as long as I can remember. Anyone who commented, mentioned, feeling around or even popking makes me uncomfortable and upset. I'm surprised that other people don't share this phobia too, and therefore, because it's so significant to myself, I'm making fun of every time the situation arises. I've tried several times to become more familiar but it's so sick that I can't. Studying for the anatomy of art is also a massive pain for me because of them, and I have to sit and draw for the sake of the complexity of drawing. Absolutely horrible. I'm happy to see others here share the same feelings as well. Tony Carter says I have to say that I find this very strange, although I understand it must be something very real and horrible for some. But you see, I'm the opposite, I love belly buttons, even mine. You could say I have a fetish for them and really find them very sexy. Seeing a young bikini with her belly buttons in the center of her belly is attractive. This is why I feel sorry for those who suffer from fobia ombligo. Amos says that when I was young, I used to have nightmares where my assailant repeatedly pulled into the bellybutton and would wake up so anxious and scared and almost crying. Now I'm 29 years old and I can't stand my bellybutton played or look at others playing his. I appreciate the buttons where I can't see the cartimon area. They are the least mortifying to me. I want to have a baby, but I'm horrified by the thought that my belly could become an outy. I honestly don't know how it would exist. My girlfriend likes to touch my abdomen, but I'm so nervous to have contact near my stomach. I used to think it was a joke, but now you understand it's not. Since trust has developed, I feel more comfortable with her coming near the edge with her hand, but never inside. It feels slightly weakening sometimes. It makes me feel like I try exposure therapy, but I feel so sick thinking about it. Thanks for this post. Anonymous 6o Grader says This is very useful. I'm doing an essay in this phobia, and so far this is the best website. I choose this phobia, thinking it would be fun to write about, but then I saw how serious it was. Thank you, sir, for making a good website. Now I see it from a new angle. Ivan Petropoulus says hello, Ivan! I'd like to let you know that I have an extreme case of fear of abdominal buttons as well. Boy, do those smell holes in my stomach always get to me. The problem is that my friends don't take me seriously and always play with my navel. that infuses me to an unbreakable point. I finally figured out why I'm afraid of this. It all started in my Montessori school. As a young fetus I loved playing in the schoolyard with my friends. However, I've had bad spikes for my whole life, so I never could play with the other kids. I think this is another reason I stand, and I'm so different from everyone else in my high school. One day I was persecuted by this boy named Casey. He was a swift uber, and fast in his reflexes he caught me, and my bad shins, at no time! He threw me out and then he put me on the floor and put his pickle inside my navel. Since then, I can never look at my navel the same way! If someone has other stories or just wants to talk, I love having conversations. I have learned that they help cure my phobia disease, so if someone wants to talk about belly buttons, or just talk about their day (I always find this useful too) send me an email at Ivan_petropoulus @ caryacademy.org. ciao amigos! Jen says Heaven, I didn't even know this was real. I have always hated touching my own navel, and especially having other people even close to it. I always feel nervous and anxious, and I feel the content of my stomach is coming out. Ugh Jharthy9 says that I never met other people who had it, the problem is that my mother thinks it's a joke and that I'm the only one who has hatred that is touched or crazy. He's not hygienic, so my mother saw him the other day and started cleaning him up, but I always tell him I can't because it hurts. How do I clean it without touching it? Anybody help? AJM says JHarty, my son has this phobia. I use an aerosol bottle with hydrogen peroxide and spray your belly button in the shower. Because of its antiseptic effects it brings out everything there and leaves it clean without having to touch it. Louise says Hi my 8-year-old has this I didn't think of it as a big problem that doesn't like anyone approaching his button navel didn't realize it's a real phobia thanks for the information about it I'm going to investigate later now i.e. The psychologist's doctor encourages Mom! Joseph D Tucker says I have this babysitter friend named BILLIE who thought it would be fun to give me a belly button therapy. She inserted her finger into my navel and felt horrible. She doesn't understand omphalophobia. Leslie says My phobia lvl is not as bad as most of you.. My sister and I can't stand to play or be touched on our button navel, actually something hurts.. I have two kids, one was in the nicu so I didn't have to deal with his umbilical cord. He took everything to clean my son's button zone. I don't even clean mine, it doesn't feel dirty. My husband thinks it's fun when we're playing fight to play it.. Why do people think it's okay to mess with something that bothers you? Aidan says I've had this phobia for the longest time and people always think I'm joking or something. I always feel like throwing up. Reading some of this made me start looking. I thought I was alone, but now I know there are more people. Honey says the same thing! Me twin used to play this "game" where in random moments I was biting the belly button. I cried and felt so bad. Now they're making fun of me and they tell me to get over it. Katie says I'm so relieved to find out I'm not the only one suffering from this. I can't stand anyone even touching my navel. It makes me feel bad, almost as if it hurt me and sometimes I could cry. I don't think I did my daily life, but I was supposed to have surgery last year, but once I was informed that they were going through my button obligo... It's all over at the time. I really need this surgery, but I can't get it done. Just thinking about it makes me want to cry. Leslie says I don't know if this will make you feel better. I just had my tubes tied up and they went through mine. I didn't clean it up before surgery. They never talked about it. When the surgery ended I saw points but from that point I didn't look. It didn't hurt me and I didn't have to clean it up or anything! Before the surgery I stayed for my fear but my husband helped me overcome it. It wasn't as bad as I built it in my head. Rob says Nauseated and panicked just reading the article and comments... Rehana Reid says Leave aside the image of a belly button. Mary says Even reading this made me feel pretty bad and I felt so relieved when I discovered it was a real phobia. I can't touch my navel, not even think about it without having a horrible feeling like I'm gonna throw up. People have made a joke about it and tried to touch my navel, but, honestly, God, it's horrible. Dan says I'd like to talk to you about this. I feel like you're on my level. Can we talk? My email is: Danielkirkhall @ gmail.com. If not, that's great. Jiya Rizvi says that I am not afraid of any part of the body, you should not be because it is only a scar that is also one of its many parts of the outer dermal body that is left of the umbilical cord that connects to the placenta in the belly. Grace says that comment made me feel nauseous Heidi says Isn't it strange how some phobias are more "accepted" than others? I don't have a phobia of belly buttons, but I'm scared of spiders. I don't even like to write the word. But, because my phobia is one of the common MOSTs, I will not laugh at... but all of you are. As a professor of psychology at the university and with a degree in sociology, I find intriguing phobias. Fobias and causes are so varied. Good luck to everyone. I hope your friends/agreements/family can finally come to the awareness that your phobia is as real as other more "acceptable." HB (Colorated) Olivia says I have a strong fear of belly buttons and everyone thinks I'm kidding. My mother tells me constantly about how she'll take me to the doctors to clean my navel, as I can't touch it and every time my mother does that or I even think about it, I'm starting to cuddle in a ball and cry. Every time I tell someone about my fear they start to show me their belly and stick their fingers in their belly buttons. I'm afraid to write about it. Anna says Even reading this made me feel pretty bad and I felt so relieved when I discovered it was a real phobia. I can't touch my navel, not even think about it without having a horrible feeling like I'm gonna throw up. People have made a joke about it and tried to touch my navel, but, honestly, God, it's horrible. BellyButton says I have Omphalophobia but I'm just young so people don't worry and take it as a joke. My sister beats me in the navel when she wants something so I end up cuddling in a ball and sometimes crying. He tells me that I have this phobia, that I have suffered all my life from this. My friends are trying to mess with me about it, and it's HORRIBLE. I started crying and ran. Tyler says it's really not funny when people do it to me either. I'm telling you, it really bothers me and it makes me feel bad. I guess I'm kind of a toy because apparently it's so fun to see my eyes watering and cuddling in a ball to hide from the terror of your belly buttons. Rehana Reid says I hate to look at people playing theirs. I've learned to bite my tongue when I wash mine. I'll never touch him if I don't have to. It makes you feel nauseous thinking about it! Taylor says I suffer from extreme Omphalophobia and my friend accidentally touched my navel and started to feel nauseabundo and I was scared and started crying and my other friend started laughing at me and mocking me, but it's actually a serious problem.
