• Super Maintenance

    Xenforo Cloud upgraded our forum to XenForo version 2.3.4. This update has created styling issues to our current templates.

    Starting January 9th, site maintenance is ongoing until further notice, but please report any other issues you may experience so we can look into.

    We apologize for the inconvenience.

What are your phobias?

Jaws. Not the movie. The mechanical shark at Universal Studios.

I always imagine falling into the water when he pops out.

And for some reason the idea of being a tank with a robotic shark scares the crap outta' me.

The idea of being in a large tank (like the size of a football field) scares me more than the ocean.

Remember that scene in Ace Ventura? Oh man....
 
I fear heights, going deep in the sea (Jaws is the one to blame for this phobia).
 
We all have them and it's kinda good to get it all out in the open. I think that I have a few strange phobias that many other people may not have.

- My bed in my room is up against the wall and I like to sleep with my back facing the wall. If my back is facing the opposite side, I get the feeling that something is going to come and get me from behind. So I sleep with my back facing the wall.

- I do not like to put my head under the shower because it distorts my hearing and temporarily blinds me. Not real blindness but with water and such. And when my face is drenched and I can't open my eyes because of the water, I feel like something is standing outside the shower looking at me. So I wash my head and face really quickly when I'm in the shower.

- For some reason I find it creepy when I do or watch something on the computer and it's taking up most of the screen. Allow me to explain, has anyone here ever played Disney's Toon Town? You know how the whole screen is the game? Well it's kinda creepy to run around with the characters in my face and stuff. Also has anyone heard of the new movie called Orphan? Well if you go to the site you'll see a picture of the girl and the movie trailer. That is fine but after the trailer is finished it blinks to a screen with a bunch of family portraits slowly moving. I cannot stay on that site for more than 15 seconds. I keep thinking some creepy picture is going to pop up or that girl will suddenly appear. This is definitely my strangest phobia.

- I'm not sure if this is a fear or phobia or whatever but I don't like to get small cuts because I think that it'll get infected really quickly. It also just feels weird having a small opening on your finger or arm. I heard somewhere that there's a name for this but I'm not sure if what I was reading was real or not.

Whoa, those two are me to a T.:wow:
 
OK, that bloop thing is freaking awesome
 
Arachnophobia,
Claustrophobia,
and
the fear of losing people I love.

oh yeah.. and heights also

I can't handle heights. Getting up on a stool makes me nervous.

Big spiders and clowns also freak me out, and I have always had this horrible gnawing fear of being alone and dying alone.

I'm the same way. I wash my hair really quickly because I feel like there's some shape on the other side of the curtain.

I also can't sleep unless my bedroom door is closed. If it's open I feel like I'm exposed and someone can just look in at me or come in and get me. It's not like some murderer or whatever couldn't just open the door, but it's just a weird comfort thing, I guess.

Like left behind during a road trip? Or no one bothering to remember you after you pass away?
Either. It doesn't even need to be after I pass away. I mean more along the lines of really good friends completely forgetting about me.
 
Yeah man. Been there. That's a drag. Though one might question if they forget about you. Are they really good friends?

I don't know.
 
I'm terrified of birds. I don't mind bats, or even falcons, like hawks or eagles, but small birds like finches or pigeons, or god forbid big ones, like emus or ostriches scare the **** out of me. Ducks are alright, but not geese.
 
i don't know if theres a name for it but i'm afraid of things in that appear in clusters, not of the things themselves...i posted about this probably two years ago...like hundreds of bees in a hive...hundreds of ants piled up on something...or the inside of red or green peppers...the way the seeds are attached to the core...a pouch of frog eggs...etc. etc..i can't look at it...or i just want to smash or destroy it.
 
Spiders
snakes
heights (worst fear)
sometimes germs, I kinda have a compulsion to wash my hands alot
being cut in the eye (this happened to me when I was eight)
Metal Spidey already explained the shower thing. I have the same problem.
clowns
being barefoot outside(stepped on a screw and went into my foot then I stepped on a bee's stinger)
