Not necessarily food related. :-)
We all have weird things we are scared of or nervous of, right?
Mine -
phobia = spiders. Utterly horrified. infact anything with more than 4 legs freaks me out. Can cope with a 12 inch rat, just, but a 1/2 inch bug freaks me right out.
fear - public speaking. I'm a pretty confident person socially, but stick me in front of a room full of people and I become a gibbering, shaking, crying wreck. did a course recently and burst in to tears in front of the cmpany management group. The trainer now talks to me like I'm a bit simple. Bang all chance of promotion.
You?

Snakes and falling. It's strange, I'm not really afraid of heights. If there is a barrier or something, I'm completely fine, but if it's like a ledge, I'm terrified.0

Fears:Dead people in the morgue at work turning into zombies and attacking me before the elevator door closes, car accidents, dropping small children that people have asked me to hold (I don't hold many kids)0 -
Wasps. I can't be anywhere near one. I'll run out of a room if there's one in, and I've jumped off a moving bus to avoid one before. Only after screaming and crying and running around the bus flapping my arms around. That was about two years ago.0

1) SPIDERS!!!!!!!! OMG i feel like my fear grows as i am getting older :sad:

3) needles -can't even get a shot at the dentist without shedding a tear!
4) speeches(talking to a large group) --makes me sooooo nervous!
5) drowning or being sufacated(not sure if i spelt that right : ) ) to death!0 -
BALLOONS and anything that makes a sharp popping noise (firecrackers/fireworks, guns, etc.) INSTANT anxiety issues - sweaty palms, heart pounding, brain going "OMG get me out of here!!"0

Fear of drowning.0

Phobias - Spiders, turning into my mother
Fears - Talking to new people on an individual basis, i'm fine in a crowd but put me in a 1 to 1 situation with a stranger and i turn into a panicking mess of nerves0 -
Heights... i literally hyper ventilate and my knees lock up... light headed and have even passed out0
-
Phobia: Needles. I dont just not like them... I have bitten a dentist, made a nurse bleed, and knocked over a tray stand thing. I have no idea what it is, but i will cry like a little girl, have such bad anxiety, that my viens collapse and it makes it hard to even get a freeking needle in.... I had to have an IV for a CAT scan once, and they had to strap my arms down (with my blessing days ahead). I dont know why but its been like that since i was little. THANK GOD for valium or id never get stuck. Funny thing is, its the injecting part, because im fine with piercings.
Fears: I dont want to lose my dad.0 -
OMG, totally hate balloons and deep water! I've never heard anyone else say that. :laugh:
I'm getting nervous just thinking about them both! And I bet we're not the only ones out there!0 -

But seriously, Birds freak me out.0
