Is it normal that i want a power that im afraid of?

Ever since I was little one of the powers I wanted was the power to control water, but I am afraid of open water. I have no problem with pools, but if I see a lake I freak out a little. I don't even like being around open water in in video games. Is that normal

    That makes complete sense. You want to be able to control something that you are afraid of. If that isn't normal, I don't know what is.

    Buy one of those high-pressure hoses for washing cars. You can control the water but if you turn it on yourself, it'll take your finger off.

    But don't fire it at old Mrs. Skeggins. She really doesn't like it.

    Same here. I'm terrified of water, but I've often wished that I could control the elements. Maybe, wishing to control them would help to vanquish our fears? If it were possible, than we would be the masters over our fears and our fears would be powerless against us.

    What's with all these phobias?
    This one is Aquaphobia. Same instructions, see a psychologist (counselor).
    Soon I'll be getting Phobophobia!
    Maybe Psychophobia!
    I found Therapistophobia for a fear of Psychologists, but I don't know if that's right.
    Is there a different one for a fear of Psychiatrists?
