I think theres plenty of people who use vairious products to excess, most thing done in excess create problems at some point.
living in modern enviroments far from a natural habitat that we started out in, I think most products can help rather than hinder our health and lives ,
we live in polluted air I wouldnt like to bet that water alone can deal with them , and water is not exactly 100% free from either .
theres loads of products to replace what we lack and have stripped, and patch us up, keep out bugs and germs too. I think our rising life expectancy over the lyrs says a lot.
as for personal hygeine theres a lot of products that arnt nessasary that we choose to use that are just nice
but Id say theres a lot that are essential too .....ie. some form of soap, toothpaste and anticeptic creams potions etc .
its all very 'hippy' to be a soap dodger but there hardly a glowing with health lot!
one of my old my freinds was one, very well off too with a vw kombi buisness ....
saving the whales I think ..... and saving the various species of lice , scabies and other dermo bacteria's too ,
he smelt , his dreads reaked ( he would insist not as he was so used to it he didnt smell it any more ,just like your feet ) and he had around 4 teeth left (one he would super glue in ?! )
:lol:
Ive had bad allergy re actions to a liquid air freshner, ended up in hospital , and I rarley used them so allergies is a real issue , but living in a world of worry and avoidence cant be good for us either our well being so Im keeping my smellies and the fairy liquid
I have a good scrub every 2nd friday of the month, whether I need it or not !!!I should think once a month , the number of times its needed far outways the number its been un needed ! :lol:
lol!

Hmm.....a bit of a damp squib here in Brixham me thinks.......the heaviest of the rain and odd flash of lightning seem to be staying offshore to the east of me....looks like if the band intensifies, then the weymouth/dorset area could be in for an interesting time the next hour or two
dorset ... interesting ?
well Im crossing mostly every thing that will cross in hope of this !

i must say i did laugh at college on the first day , I was studying photography and the course involved processing your prints using the darkroom , we are all sat there neewbies and our lecture asks if any one is scared of the dark as they may want to reconcider the course .. apparently she had a pupil with a phobia of the dark in a previous year

Erm

Excuse me for rambling on even further!...but I completely sympathise Stormraider! I am exactly the same as you - I find it can prevent me from doing things I really want to do. It almost stopped me applying for a job in Japan that I really wanted, because I know they can get some pretty nasty storms there. Seems like such a petty reason, but for me the fear is very, very real.
It is not something you can really explain, and people often think you can just snap out of it. It's also not like a lot of other phobias, because you can't really avoid it. It's not a case of simply leaving a room and removing yourself from something that scares you - a thunderstorm is all-embracing and kind of forces you to witness it, whether you want to or not.
I am also similar in the sense that even the threat of one can make life difficult. For instance, today I am feeling highly stressed and don't really know what to do with myself. If one does come along my heart races so hard I feel like I'm having a heart-attack and I just want to bury my head and get away from it. All rationality just flies straight out the window...
phobias are awful things , there being scared of warey in a healthy way and theres phobias which completly over whelm your rational mind! I so get where your coming from with how they could take over your life preventing you doing things and the stressing out / panic type things,
I suffer from panics and phobias, Im now only slightly agraphobic /public places, fear of embarrasing myself and when it starts one half of my brain says its my phobia and the other hlf has dreamed up how i could embarrass myself and how im already doing and its happening right now... its such a horrible feeling of needing to get the hell out of where i am and get home that i dread even having to go places , even the school im not anywhere near as bad as i used to be , its probably a couple of times a month now , it used to plauge me daily , so i really sympathise with any one who finds even the thought of a possible storm happening upseting x
ive alway thought its funny how i am basically scared of every thing ... everything but im not with storms , which can be dangerous .. i love them and i often think about this and wish i could apply this lack of fear to the rest of my life in the same way !!
