I have a fear of dark soda, is this weird?

Question

I think I drank soda for less than a year when I was little, and then I decided on my own to stop drinking it for some odd reason, but now I am afraid of it. It's probably been around ten years since I've had a drink of dark soda. I'm sixteen right now.... Do you think I should try to overcome this fear? I honestly just don't like the look or smell of it, although I will drink chocolate milk that is dark. I will not drink any juice that is purple, green, or blue. The only color of drink that will touch my mouth is orange, red, pink, or clear, or chocolate milk. All of my friends and family think this is weird, but I don't know if I should try to fix it or not....

Answer 1

not at all . tell you the truth there are so many weird phobias out there yours sounds kinda normal ^_^ .. just remember  dark sada cant harm you :)

Answer 2

I think you're perfectly ok. Maybe you just dont like drinks with those colors you mentioned. It's like some people don't like eating vegetables...some do...some like their steak rare...some well done...just drink what you like to drink!

Answer 3

.I have a fear of small circular holes closely grouped together.

Answer 4

Eh who cares what they think... just say you don't like sodas because really they are bad for you!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 5

u r soooooooo weried weriedo!!!!

Answer 6

its not necessarily weird, you just have a phobia. my sister will not eat anythingg that is blue. shes just been that way for years. Not to put ideas in your head but have you ruled out an eating disorder? people who have rituals and/or phobias of food can have a developing eating disorder and not even know it. but more or less its probably just a habit not to drink these things and soda isnt the best thing you could be drinking. but in my opinion, go try a cherry coke, best thing ive ever tasted : )

Answer 7

Well it is a bit weird but then we all have our querks. There is nothing wrong with liking or wanting dark sodas. But to be afraid of it might be something you might want to address if it bothers you that much. To include dark juice makes it that much more interesting.

I would probably try to conquer the fear myself but that does not mean I would then start drinking dark sodas.

Answer 8

Hi, If you don't like the look or the smell of it then just don't drink it.  Why force yourself to drink something that you don't like ?

We all have things that we used to like and don't anymore.

It isn't weird.

You don't like it so don't drink it - drink something that you DO like instead.

Best wishes

Answer 11

haha!

well, don't worry!

weird is cool..

and hey..

sometimes, it's cool to be different..

live life..

=))..

Answer 12

Yes, wierd. Not life threatening though so I wouldn't worry too much!

Answer 13

I don't think that is weird, I mean everyone is different. plus, you can't even see what's in dark sodas because they are so dark!

Answer 14

I don't like clear soda.  I'm not afraid of it, but I think it's nasty. Who knows why you hate dark soda but being "afraid" of it is far different from just disliking it.  If it doesn't affect other parts of you life, I wouldn't worry much.  But if you find yourself in "fear" of other things, you may want to see a doctor.  There could be some underlying problem.

Answer 15

Don't bother trying to overcome it, they're unhealthy and your body isn't missing anything by avoiding them. I wish I could develop a similar phobia of chocolate!.

As for it being weird, it's a little unusual as far as phobias go, but people can develop a phobia of anything from spoons to buttons so it's nothing to worry about.

Answer 16

Don't try to fix what isn't broken...

What you drink is your personal preference... enjoy! :o)

Answer 17

If it's not causing you any problems, you don't need to change it. It just gives you an interesting quirk.
