    The fear that I'll wake up at 50-60 years old one day and wonder where time went and what the heck have I done with my life to made me happy. I fear, fear itself.

    rounding the bases and finding a man on third?


    underwater caves .... no problem with being underwater or in caves, but underwater caves are freaky to me.

    My biggest fear is that my husband won't return after a deployment. Don't know what I would do if that were to happen.

    1) Any natural body of water. Weird, I know. I love the beach, I just HATE going in the water. (And I grew up on an island...go figure?)
    2) Never being able to have children.
    3) Losing my loved ones.
    4) One day, losing control of myself to the point of becoming so big, I can't walk by myself. It honestly terrifies me.
    5) Being stuck in one place and never being able to see new things/places.

    My whole life my biggest fear has been dying and as the years have passed and the weight has increased it just makes the fear more intense, to quote The Divine Bette Middler "The soul afraid of dying, never learns to live" That would be me.!!!

    ummmmmm something happening to my son.......he's my heart
    small spaces
    sometimes when i'm home alone......it suddenly strikes me that i'm 'alone'....and i'm afraid to look up in case there is someone looking in through a window at me
    being though of 'less' than i actually am by other people purely based on my shyness (it's usually misinterpreted as being snobby or stupid)

    lol..k, therapy session is over........

    1) Having something bad happen to the people closest to me

    2) Dying...I am 34 years old and have lost only one person close to my heart to death & the thought of dying scares the crap outta me!!!

    I have been overweight all my life so becoming thin is very scary for me. my weight has kept me in a bubble that has protected me for a long time. I am scared to loose my bubble

    I relate to a lot of this! I overcame many things, but now getting older I have alot of these issues coming back on. And now I see my 16 yr old daughter dealing with a lot of these things too. I worry that I have made her out to be like this, but I know deep down that I have fought hard to over come, and she has too, she's learned more courage from me then fear. She also in turns inspires me to be courageous.
    Speaking.
    The phone is the worst. I have a panic attack everytime I have to talk on the phone. Even if it's my husband.
    I don't like talking to strangers. I don't even like talking to my family. I have to force myself to do it. It's way out of my comfort zone.
    I want to join a gym but I'm scared to walk into one. Even more scared to ask questions. I know the second they see me they're laughing in their head about the fat girl who will never stick around.

    If I buy a diet soda I'm pretty sure the cashier is thinking "Oh honey, that isn't going to help".

    I'm afraid people don't like me. Everytime I post something, even here, I'm pretty sure people see my name and think "Oh crap. It's her again. I wish she would just shut up and go away." And when people say nice things I'm pretty sure they're lying. Like it's some type of joke to pretend to be nice to me. Me being the butt of the joke. I tell myself these things aren't true but I still believe them.

    However, I could pour my heart out in text. I can make posts so long just the sight of them makes people not read them. I like to take all my dirty laundry and offer it up for examination. Maybe someone else feels the same way as me and by reading what I have to say they will feel less alone.

    In spite of all this I think I'm a pretty damn awesome person. Weird.

    Oh yeah! Another big fear I have (especially recently) is not finding a job soon after graduating from college and having to move back to Indiana. I really don't want to be a boomerang child, but it's going to be really hard to find something in the music business since my internship isn't leading to a job. :indifferent:

    Having one of my children die before me
    Taking a shower when I am home alone
    Spiders
    Being so fat that an ambulance crew would have to have a bariatric stretcher and heavy duty rescue (this fear comes from my job and what I have seen and heard)
    Looking strangers in the eye when walking down the street
    Not being remembered after I die
    Snakes

    I'm afraid of all rodents, I scream like a girl and run away or cower in fear. This includes squirrels and rabbits. One time while moving a shelf in the usmc a rat jumped out I screamed and dropped the shelf , then the rat ran up my leg. So I ran inside and scrubbed my leg for 30 min. My buddies ragged me for sounding like a chick.

    A mouse just walked past me and for almost 20 minutes I have been stuck on this chair sitting crossed legged for fear of this mouse thats why I am starting this lol.

    1) Spiders (eww)
    2) Rats, Mice, Ferrets, Hampsters anything rodent
    3) Growing old alone
    4) Dying without living

    These are mine, everyone keep your fingers crossed that I will eventually get out of this chair. No one comes home until 4 that is 5hrs away...I have no drink here I might die of dehydration :cry:

    Question of the day, did she ever get out of the chair?
