Cherophobia The fear of being happy

[Matchy69]

Hi I think have this Cherophobia and wonder if anyone else has this.

I am scared when I am happy that something bad will happen as this is the usual case with me all out through my life.I seem to want to be unhappy and just waiting for something bad to happen.How do i overcome this fear or do I just live with it as this is the safe option.I am scared of heights so i stay away from hsights so do i just stay away from happiness?

Your thoughts are welcome.

Take care,

Mark.

Hi Tayla you have the most kindest heart.Your words always make me feel better.I wish i wasnt so sick today.I took my kids out yesterday and got my sons haircut and he wasnt real keen on that yesterday,he is usually better.And then took them out for breakfast and looked into a Antique shop and could have bought heaps of things if i had some money.

Take care,

Your friend,

Mark.

Hey Mark.

Aw thank you, I'm really glad that you think that, your kind words mean so much to me. I try to have a good heart and be a good person. You have the most kindest heart too and talking to you makes me feel a bit better too. I'm glad I can make you feel better too.

I'm sorry you're sick, I hope you get better soon. Sounds nice that you took your kids out yesterday though, sorry to hear about your son with the haircut.

Antique shops are great aren't they?

Take care too.

Take care,

I had really good morning my daughter saw her psychologist and that went well.I then took her for her first driving lesson which went well.My daughter had a doctors appointment so i took her there.It was when we were about to leave that we were stopped and told we have to go into self isolation as the surgery has just had a suspected coronavirus case.We cannot leave this house until further notice.

[Guest_4643]

Wow, that's terrible to hear Mark, I'm so sorry, especially when it sounded like you both were having a good day. That makes me sad for you. Let's hope they didn't have a case and that you don't need to self isolate for too long and that none of you will get sick. Sometimes it can be good being at home but it can also be annoying especially when you need things from the Supermarket, etc. Speaking of which we managed to get some toilet paper, hand sanitiser was sold out though. A lady at the Doctors told Dad and I about a supply place that had toilet paper, it was only a big 1ply box of it for $80 (expensive but oh well I guess, what can you do?), and everyone was buying it and trying to get hand sanitiser. It was like one of the things in the public toilets, it's better than nothing although it was so pricey.

Take care, I'm sorry that happened to you

Hi Tayla thankyou for your knd words it means a lot to me.That is expensive toilet paper.I am just about out of everything here but cant go shopping to i get the all clear.My daughters happy she dosnt have to go to school.It is nice just having her without my son.We get to watch whst we like and spend some quality time together.

Take care,

Your friend,

Mark.

Hi mark,

I struggle with the same thing and I think it’s mostly because I get anxious that when I’m really happy I know that it’s not going to last and they will get really depressed later and then I shouldn’t get too caught up in being happy because the wave of depression will come crashing down even harder if I do that. Hopefully having someone can relate helps. Lots of hugs.
