Trypophobia... or however people really spell it

Trypophobia.. an irrational fear and disgust of a cluster of holes. If you don't know what I'm talking about, type trypophobia on google images and voila. An animalistic reaction that affects the senses, most likely to protect oneself from danger, as they resemble dangerous images seen in nature, like a beehive. Well I stupidly have this phobia, and the sick and twisted thing about it is, I actually make an effort to google these images and videos and look at them over and over again. Bizarre! A bit masochistic, with minor OCD tendencies? It makes me itch just thinking about them. Antoine has the same phobia. So why do some people have it and some people don't? What does it psychologically mean? And more importantly, can anyone recommend a real cure?! Pfft!!
