I've had a crippling fear of water and msubmerged manmade objects for as long as I can remember and found this thread while searching the web for pictures/videos/articles about sunken aircrafts to try and chock away the fear.
I'm 33 and never come across anyone else (irl or on the net) with this phobia and it has made me feel weird my entire life.
Just wanted to say, that finding this thread lifted a huge weight off my chest. Knowing I'm not some sort of weird anomaly has given me the courage to fight this even harder. Who knows? Maybe I can watch "The Little Mermaid" with my niece in a few months. Saw it when I was 16 and was struck with such panic when I saw the ships I actually passed out.
Thank you for bringing this phobia to attention.
