Hello my dear family here in read.cash, how was your Saturday anyway? Did you still have a very productive day? Today I did our laundry, so I was a little bit tired as I only hand wash our laundry. It means I didn't use the machine so I can save some electricity 😅.

Okay so much for that, let's proceed to my story for today. Actually I came across to this topic because I saw a worm while I am washing our clothes. As usual I get panic again and felt the fear watching it slowly crawling next to me so I immediately use the water to took it away from me. I am literally scared of worm.

Story time!

Since I was a little kid, I already have fear with worm's and even until now. Seriously, I really dislike worm's, whenever I saw them I always have this fear that they might come inside my body lol. I don't know but I can't control my emotion, as my brain is telling me how scared I am with worm's. Sounds like my brain is the one who's torturing me actually😅. Well my fears actually started from my mom😂.

When I was just seven year's old, my mom notice that I'm too skinny, although I'm a big eater. I mean, I eat lots of food but I didn't gain any weight and as a mom she was worried about my health.

She then decided to bring me to our local health center to visit our local pediatrician. I still remember that before we left home, I asked my mom, why we need to see a doctor as I am not sick. My mom just told me that we have to see the doctor, so I can have free vitamins lol. I saw my mom bring a little amount of stool and that was from me 😂, she put it inside the small plastic container and she wrapped it with a plastic bag. When I ask her about it, she just told me that she will bring it the doctor as a present 🙄 lol. As a kid I just believe my mom and so I was very excited to see the doctor as my mom says that i can have free vitamins if we visited the doctor, I really love our vitamins when I was a kid.

When we arrive to the clinic, the doctor interviewed my mom. She then told to the doctor that I'm a big eater but I'm still skinny. After they have a little talk, the doctor checked my weight and that's it. She then told my mom to come back after three days for the test result of my stool and she gives a bottle of vitamin's to her.

After three days, my mom and I went back to see the doctor. I have heard that the doctor told my mom that they need to deworm me and so she instructed my mom what to do.

When I asked my mom what's the meaning of deworm, she told me that I have some worm's inside my stomach that is why they need to deworm me.

When I heard that I have some worm's inside my stomach, I suddenly feel scared. How can I have worm's inside me? And when I asked the doctor how I get them. The doctor says that we actually have worm's inside our stomach, the good worm's and bad worms. And those worms that I need to took out was the bad one and I probably get them from my dirty hand's 😅. As a kid I don't understand the doctor actually😂.

Anyway don't get me wrong, my mom is not irresponsible mother to us. I think it only happens because I used to play mud and i think I got those germs from my nails as sometimes I don't wash my hands, specially if I saw food. I literally forgot to wash my hands 😅 . As I have said, when I was a kid I'm a big stubborn and hardheaded. That is why my mom used to nagged at me and chase me with hanger and sometimes brooms stick whenever she saw me eating without washing my hands lol.

The next day, my mom asked me to take the medicine after I ate my breakfast. As the doctor prescription, I should only take the half of the medicine and if only few worms came out, I need to take the whole medicine, after one month, if my memory wasn't wrong😅.

After three days, I started to feel something strange under my butt. I can feel that something is scratching my butt, and it's something tickling😂 lol. When I told about it to my mom, she then ask me if there's already worms come out when I po**** and I told her that there still nothing, so she reminded me to let her know if there's any.

The next day, while I am po**** I don't know that there's already worm in my 💩 , not until I felt that something is hanging in my butt😅. When I look for what's in my butt I saw a big worm, it was hanging and it's still alive 😱. I was really scared, I get panic and I immediately call my mom as I was scared that it might come back to my stomach lol.

I don't know why it took time for my mom to come and because of fear I am already crying when she come😅. I was really upset with my mom and I told her that I won't po** again, never again 😂.

And because my mom was annoyed with me, she then started to scare me. She told me that if I won't let all my worms out, one day they will come out by their own because they are already too much in my stomach. She even describe that the worms will come out from my mouth, nose, ears and even in my eyes.

As a kid I was very scared, imagine worm's will come out from your mouth or in your eyes, that was very much scary and honestly because of fear I feel scared to po*** again 😂. And so every time that I really felt that I need to po*** I always ask my mom to go with me and I always cry whenever I felt something in my butt😅.

Since then I started to feel afraid with worm's 😅. I thought that when I grow older I won't be scared anymore but I was wrong as the fear was still the same whenever I see worms, I still cry like a baby lol.

The end!

Closing thoughts;

As an adult I can say that scaring the children is not the best way to let them follow your instructions, as sometimes it may also bring negative impact to their growth. Proper communication, makes all things work, so I hope no more adults will try to scare the children.

Actually I can say that if my mom didn't scare me, I think I wouldn't have this kind of fear, but if only I listen to my mom I think she won't try to scare me😅.

Anyway this is all for today and thank you for reading.
