My fear of water isn't what I would call "severe" but I still don't even look forward to taking a shower - I breathe a sigh of relief when it's over, lol! Can't remember the last time I soaked in a tub, or went in a swimming pool.....
It's mostly having water in my face, or being submerged in water, that bothers me more than anything....I don't know, maybe I was a cat in a past life
