    Thats not crazy..I would know..I am diagnosed crazy
    Crazy seeps in very slowly where you can't see yourself change until its too late and your in the psych unit with all the other crazies for 5th time in a month....True Story
    Oh yeah...and being alone

    I have anxiety dreams about being back in a psych ward. It's been 15 years but that fear is still present for me. I so get that.

    I have this really random fear that if the fan is on the fastest setting it will spin itself off and come crashing down and chop off my head.

    I think one of our cats has this same fear.

    Edit: I'm not making light of anything here, btw, one of our cats is terrified of ceiling fans. Her face is stricken with terror when she looks up and realizes it's on.

    I just saw a youtube video of a guy who rolled out the way seconds before a tree fell on him. Scared me - and I was just watching it!

    For some reason when I was younger I was convinced I'd die in a car accident by 30. It was UNSHAKABLE, this belief. I am almost 32 now. Never been happier to have been proven wrong!

    I was homeless for a short time when I was much younger and still have nightmares and anxiety dreams about finding myself without a home to go to.

    TRYPOPHOBIA

    It makes my skin crawls. It makes me feel weird!

    If you don't know what it is I beg you, DO NOT google it.

    I have a massive fear of slugs! Cannot stand the sight of them or being near them which means I refuse to go out of the back door after dark as a whole army of the little buggers seem to come out!

    The thought of walking through long damp grass gives me the heebie geebies knowing they are hinding in there just slothering around.

    Uhhhg, someone who knew of my fear once threw a slug at me too let's just say I I was not a happy chappy, I haven't seen them since haha!

    On some toilets I have a fear of my poop not making into the hole and I will sit on just the bowl instead of the seat.

    No friken idea where the fear comes from.

    I have a fear that my mom is going to die.....its part of the crazy I guess.......I am obsessive about it...like if I can't reach her on the phone I will go ballistic until I talk to her (I am 27 years old by the way) I can't throw anything away that she gives me including ziploc containers..this started when my grandma died

    I have the kind of stairs in my house that have that space between them instead of them being closed in. I always run up them when I am by myself for fear of someone reaching through and grabbing my foot or ankle. I know that nobody is there to do it, but I still run out of fear.

    Reaching down to get that sippy cup value that fell into kitchen garbage disposal and thinking it will somehow turn on with my hand in it, this completely freaks me out.

    Bridges over water....as soon as i see one in my near driving future, my heart races and i get so sick to my stomach. The feeling of being stuck in the car, in the water and not be able to get out. PANIC!! My husband bought me a hammer/seat belt cutter that you hook on to the back of the passenger seat (or somewhere you could reach) so i wouldnt freak out as much. Didnt help as much as i hoped.
