Phobias / Fears

[Mustang69]

Public speaking. I will get cold sweats, dry mouth and start losing my train of thought and get totally lost. Its one thing where I might be in a room with a large group of people and everyone is throwing out ideas or something but if I am the one that is expected to present forget it, I am completely worthless.

[Slushy]

I'm afraid of heights:

As you can see why.

 

[BillPardy]

Not completely a fear, but I'm disgusted by jewelry. I've come to grips with it visually, but I avoid touching it at all cost. If my girlfriend leaves a necklace in a place it could easily get lost, it takes a great deal of mental preparation for me to pick it up and move it.

But facial piercings, or people putting anything jewelery like in their mouth makes me literally retch.

 

[MrMaooz]

Michael Jackson's face.

 

[Schlosser85]

Heights. Slightly claustrophobic, though I think people crowding into my personal space freaks me out more than being in enclosed spaces.

 

[Immortalfire]

I fear apostrophe misuse.

 

[Enriquespy]

Heigths. And moths.

Just a little, moths.
And boredom, or more precisely: tediousness.

 

[Greens]

Heights.

Pretty boring.

 

[Guts]

Heigths. And moths.

Just a little, moths.

 

[Enriquespy]

Naaaaa... Mothra is ok. Tha bad ones are the big brown ones that flap around like bats when you try to take them out of the room and end up posing stealthly in your shoulder just to scare the crap off you when you find it.

 

[THUNDERSTRIKE]

Getting paralyzed. Having a kid. Failure or rejection (though I've learnt to suppress that in recent years, because without a risk of failure there is no success). Parents passing. I think those are my major ones. Those are mostly fears rather than phobias. I guess my biggest phobia would be getting buried alive; the sensation you can't breathe or escape.

then make sure you avoid getting a stroke, at all costs... I went thru one last year, because I was doing all the wrong things and ****ing myself over, which in the long run, screwed me over health-wise... I've learned from my dumb-ass mistakes now, but just over a year later, it's left me about 90% back to normal, but still a little physically challenged and STILL trying to recover... I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy, if I HAD one... it's not a good feeling waking up in the morning staring up at the ceiling for a month in a rehab facility and trying to get up, but one side of your body is unable to respond to your mind wanting you to move, but it can't... I went thru about three weeks before I was even STARTED to move my affected side again... it was the worst physical trauma that I've had to endure in my life...

as for MY phobias, I don't like snakes and I DESPISE and can't stand those multi-legged, LONG insects that come out of your vent system around the fall season and scurry about the area between your wall and ceiling... they don't do it often but when they DO come out, they creep the **** outta me...

and I HATE heights, as well...

 

[THUNDERSTRIKE]

I have always had a fear of going blind, or deaf. I don't like anything put in my eyes are ears. And, I am very claustrophobic. To the point that I have had very light anxiety attacks driving through thick fog...lol

then pray you never need to have injections directly into your eyeballs to counteract the slight bleeding from the tiny veins that are caused from diabetes type 2... it's not a pleasant feeling to see a needle approaching your eyeballs, even though they put a numbing gel onto the surface of your eyes...

 

[Greens]

Thunderstrike, you are a Debbie downer!

 

[THUNDERSTRIKE]

Thunderstrike, you are a Debbie downer!

hey, what can I say?... sometimes life can REALLY stick it to you in the worst way, when you least expect it... *shrugs*... it CAN be a b**ch...

 

[Spider-Aziz]

Someone pushing someone I know in front of a moving bus.

 

[Kahran Ramsus]

Bees, wasps, and hornets. I can't even watch them on tv or look at pictures (except for cartoon bees).

I am also deathly afraid of lightning, but only if I'm outdoors. I'm perfectly fine indoors or in an enclosed vehicle.

 

[Schlosser85]

Someone pushing someone I know in front of a moving bus.

Keep them away from warhorse then.

 

[sp9880]

I'm terrified of bugs, especially spiders. I'm also afraid of roller coasters and carnival rides.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

Keep them away from warhorse then.

That's part of the plan.

 

[BLACKVULCAN]

heh okay i am game
Ventroliquist Dummies!!

i saw an old twilight episode with one as a kid and it freak me the *( out!i hate those creepy ass things!

 

[MrsKent26]

I'm afraid of saunas and tanning beds.

The sauna thing comes from a fear of being locked in one and slowly dehydrating to death. Then being found days later as a rotting prune.

The tanning bed thing is similar. Someone could tie it shut and then the person would burn to death. It happened in a movie! Plus, skin cancer!

Spiders are no good as well. I kill them as soon as I see them. And centipedes! Ew.

You thought of "I Still Know What You Did Last Summer"
That movie title should be "I know What You Did Two Summers Ago"

I was thinking of that and one of those Final Destination movies has a tanning bed death in it. I'll just stay pale and alive.
