    Any extreme weather...high wind, heavy rain, lots of snow, but especially thunderstorms. I get a little anxious when there's lightening, but someone help me when there's thunder.

    I don't like lightning much either, I'm scared I'll get electrocuted, probably not likely but still.
  • Bees. Absolutely terrified of them.

    Like many also have a fear of heights. There is this bridge that overlooks a dual carriageway below, I can never go over it. About a metre or two below is this pathway and that's to the side of the bridge so you can still see and hear the cars going past down below, and see basically to the end of my town lol. It's scary and sometimes I have to walk across it with my mum, scariest moment of my life lol. Also, there is stairs leading up to it, so they're steep and going up and that's scary as well. If you go down them though it's not bad. I think how the heck can people walk this path by themselves, and also how can they walk the bridge by themselves?

    I saw the movie "Jaws" when I was little and it traumatized me. Now I will not go beach swimming unless other swimmers are out a little further. The Shark will get them first is my dumb rationale.

    I hate being in the total dark, I can't see and then I feel as if someone is near me. I am claustrophobic and I have a touch of vertigo - but worst I can't swim so I don't go too far into the water, I am afraid that I might drown.
  • I think guys are the worst. No matter how old. Guys seem to NEVER change. I STILL get nasty emails about killing me and burning me and crippling me yada yda if I make ANY comments about how pretty a girl is or congrats on her progress and usually these girls are like in other COUNTRIES. Its like they think the girls gonna drop her whole life and come running to me just because I WAS KIND and showed my SUPPORT of her weight loss.
    :D

    Ill probably NEVER understand that one, do they want NOONE to respond to their girls progress, why else has the girl posted the pics?
    IT JUST KINDNESS and SUPPORT GUYS!!

    I still don't like the idea of Freddy Krueger. He doesn't scare me anymore like he used to when I was little, but the thought of being killed in your sleep, freaks me out more than anything.
    And clowns still weird me out..
  • The dark still creeps me out, whenever i go downstairs in the kitchen, i start imagining what could come after. Brb take cellphone out and dial the police number just in case. Haha i really need to stop doing that

    Being ripped apart by wolves or coyotes in the dark, wasps, bees, and werewolves (specifically the glowing eyes).
  • Growing old, getting fat, loosing hair, not having enough money to retire and big spiders.

    I still have a fear of the dark but it's usually on nights where I watch something scary.

    The popping noise a roll of refrigerator biscuits makes when it explodes open. I think it's because I don't know WHEN it's going to pop--I have to look away every time until the seams burst open.

    Afraid of large roaches and weirdo bugs as well as mice or rats, especially if they are near me on the street. I also hate latex balloons
