    I seriously couldn't enter my house one day last week because a spider was guarding the door. I had just got home from the grocery store, and I stood there staring at his ugly 8 legged self...I threw rocks at him but he stayed near the door. Then my cat Cookie came to my rescue by hopping on top of the thing and swatting him away. I came back out later and drowned him in Raid...

    I am terrified of crustaceans. Crabs, lobsters, crayfish, shrimp and everything else. I have to cover my eyes when I see comercials for seafood restaurants and don't even get me started on "Deadliest Catch"

    Ironically, I decided to go to college on the North Shore of Massachusetts and was surrounded by them :sick:

    bridges and tunnels - I hate them. I have this fear that they are going to collapse.

    closet monsters - I cannot sleep with the closet door in my bedroom open. It has to be closed. I have this theory that if something i hiding in the closet then if the doors are shut, I will hear them open the door and wake up. But if the door is open I have no warning.

    the dark if it's behind me - I can't stand the thought of something jumping out from behind me in the dark. Darkness in front of me doesn't bother me at all. Behind me, forget about it!

    I can't watch scary movies either. I'll have nightmares for days!

    Oh... ~shudders~...I'm perusing the thread, thinking about my own phobias and one I'd forgotten scrolls onto the screen....

    EARWIGS!

    ~shudders again.~

    Actually, I have a lot of phobias.
    Claustrophobia, though only in certain circumstances.
    I don't have a fear of heights, but I do fear falling.
    Crowds.
    New places/people
    Any medical professional or location... I've reached the point where I can deal with things but I'm nauseous the entire time.
    There are others.

    On the weirder scale... I won't swim in any fresh body of water. Pools are okay, lakes and ponds are not.
    Going over train tracks.

    I don't know if they count as phobias but I don't like to go around toads or goats. I am certain toads are evil and goats are aliens. ~quiet chuckle~

    I didn't used to be afraid of spiders , but now....about 10 years ago I stepped on a gigantic wood spider to kill it, and about 1000 baby woodspiders shot up my leg. (Now I won't go NEAR a spider!!!):noway:

    Balloons!

    I'm okay if they're tied up for decorations and nobody's touching them. I have to stand way back when they fill them for my kids at Red Robin, and if I see a little kid chewing or squeezing or playing with a balloon I have to leave the room immediately! I also usually can't be in the same room if someone is blowing up balloons with their mouth.

    Lizards!!! I HATE those things!! Their beady little eyes that look at you and their little hands and fingers! Soooo nasty!! I can't stand to see them live, on tv, in pictures, nothing!

    And, of course, I live in AZ and I find them in my garage sometimes!! Everyone tells me: They're good. They eat spiders and insects, etc. I can kill a spider with my shoe; I can't just kill a lizard with my shoe!! EEEEewwwwwww!!!!

    Public bathrooms!! I was so terrified of them when I was in elementary school I peed my pants several times, to the point where they allowed me to use the private teacher's bathroom in the main office. I still to this day avoid them if I can
