A woman is so scared of toilets she thinks the flush is going to swallow her up every time it is pressed.
Ney Decino, 20, is petrified of using the loo and even gets her family members to pull the chain for her otherwise she has to run away as fast as she can as soon as she's flushed for fear of being sucked down the toilet.
''And I won't use a loo with a pull chain at all. That is my biggest fear. The surge of water when you have to flush is just too much.''
She told the Daily Mirror newspaper: ''I flush the loo and then run out of the bathroom unless someone is with me. I use the kitchen to wash my hands.
''The sound of the water sends shivers down my spine. It's awful.
''I swear it will swallow me up. Once I've flushed, the sound of it and the look of the water going down, it freaks me out.
''Cubicles all in a row are a nightmare. That's why I only go when out in public in an absolute emergency.
''And I won't use a loo with a pull chain at all. That is my biggest fear. The surge of water when you have to flush is just too much.''
What's more, Ney is fearful of water in general and tries her best to avoid swimming pools, the sea and lakes.
