    Drowning, burning.

    Deep water where I can't see what's beneath, I'm afraid of cutting my feet on garbage or a "monster" dragging me under.
    People don't belong in the ocean.

    Or lakes. I just know there's dead bodies at the bottom.

    Yes! Do we have a telepathic link!!

    Was thinking that after responding.
    We all know what "buried at sea" means, but also lakes....a body dumping ground...plus all the dead aquatic animals in there

    ...and Nessie, and Jaws

    I love birds. I would be scared of a large crocodile if I was in the water with it.

    Or a large white, tiger, or bull shark. Other sharks are ok though.

    An angry mama bear.

    A masked man trying to break in.

    water. drowning.

    and something more realistic: alzheimers.
    it doesn't run in my family but i always fear I'll end up with it anyhow and lose all sense of self and time.

    My grandmother...shes still alive, but she doesn't remember any of the grandchildren. She looks shocked when someone mentions my grandfather is dead.
    I don't visit because it makes her feel bad
    She said the last time I visited her "I should know you, shouldn't I? You must think I'm an awful person" and spent the rest of the afternoon with a confused and sad, perplexed look on her face.

    my ma worked in nursing homes when i was a kid. i used to go help out at the little events they'd put on for the residents like Halloween parties and dances and stuff. and it was sweet for a lot of them. but there was also a lot of them who didn't know where they were or why their family wasn't there with them and theyd just cry the whole night.
    and i still can't even imagine how it felt for them personally. the indignity of losing yourself.
    and I've been afraid of it happening to me ever since.

    Me too.
    Also terrified of being "stuck in your own body", stroke or otherwise incapacitated.

    Some of the people who work in those places get my whole hearted admiration and gratitude.

    It used to be losing gravity. As in suddenly beginning to float up into the sky, no way to stop. Higher and higher.

    Agreed also on drowning and the sheer terror of truly not being able to breathe

    Do you ever think of where you'll hide or what you'll do if someone breaks in?
    I have literally nowhere to hide here, no weapons and not sure how the windows open, lol...prob break a leg jumping if I did.

    That would like ALS - mind fully functional but body stops working - it’s like the opposite of Alzheimer’s- my grandma had alzheimer’s as well - forgot everyone in the family including my grandpa - was so hard to see her like that

    Omg. I have thought about it. My house was robbed once but thankfully I wasnt home, but it got me thinking.

    I am not a gun fan at all but after that and a domestic incident, I have a gun and wont hesitate to use it. If i had to hide in a situation, i could fit in any cabinet. I am a little person. :)

    Fun fact - we’ll maybe just fact - if you weren’t home you were actually burglarized- you would have to be there to be robbed - just some useless knowledge i thought I’d pass along its 1am and I’m bored sorry

    If you're not home, burglary; if you're home, robbery
