    no joke, I have root-phobia. It’s weird.

    Seeing plant roots or imagining touching them gives me shudders.

    I have no problem with carrots or potatoes, funnily enough (although the latter is turning into phobia territory if they are starting to bud)

    My suspicion on how I got it: As a small kid (3 or so years old) I remember having some nightmares about tree roots grabbing me by my feet. Must have wired some things in my brain in a weird way
