Garden Gnomes, Tasers and Floppy Cheese... what are your phobias? We'd love to hear from you. Ilana has loose fears about dropping her keys down a hole. Cristina hates your mouth noise with a passion. Koro syndrome is not common but would make a fun film! There is so much toxicity out there (our government, our salad), but here at That's So Mental we hope we help you laugh at all of it, because we are all on the same rock flying through space and what is life anyway?!
