Based on your description upthread, the only thing I can think of is that your phobia might be . If it's that, I believe it's a more common phobia than you might think. Regardless, I think you should definitely look into therapy; this is exactly what it's there for, and I promise that a decent therapist will not laugh and has heard of stranger things. If it's keeping you from being functional, which (from your secret) it is, you should absolutely do it.

Also, my story:

You know what my phobia is? Dead birds. Seriously. Living birds? Fine. Other kinds of dead animals? No problem! It's just dead birds.

Do you have any idea how many movies and shows just toss in a dead bird for symbolism or whatever? It happens all the damn time. Even when it's an adaptation and the source material has no dead birds. The Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince movie was going fine, Draco was repairing the Vanishing Cabinet, and then SURPRISE DEAD BIRD! I have no idea how I ended up loving FMA so much, when the first two episodes of the first anime were basically NONSTOP DEAD BIRDS WITH BONUS ZOMBIE BIRD.

The weird thing is, though, that will all those unexpected dead birds cropping up, I'm actually getting kinda desensitized to it. So seeing them in fiction doesn't bother me so much anymore. (Seeing them in real life is another story.)

Also, OP, if it does happen to be the above poster's guess: (I don't know how to do the white text, so if reading about it will bother you just... ignore me.) I saw a balloon slowly deflate when I was a small child, and it absolutely horrified me. I still can't stand seeing or hearing them pop.

So if that is your phobia, and if it helps, you're not alone.
