    I'm afraid of dogs when I haven't been around them before. If a dog runs at me I go into panic mode quick.

    Is this like any dog or just big ones

    It's mostly the medium size to big dogs. It's the strange dog running at me that causes panic.

    Yeah i could see that i watched a great Dane run my brother up a fence post. I knew the dog wouldn't leave it's yard, but he didn't. So he ran like Hell

    arachnophobia

    Are you afraid of the fear of spiders, or the spiders themselves?

    *Tree frogs (the little green slime ones that look like someone hocked up a goober)
    *Cockroaches (& Kind of crickets, they are just Cockroaches that jump, to me)
    *Other drivers
    *The possibility of falling on stairs
    *Crowds
    *Pain (like someone being beaten to death, not like stubbing a toe)

    Worms (tithe point where I couldn't wen eat spaghetti as a kid)

    Clown (because of IT)

    The sea (because of Jaws) - I walk on the edge of the sea, might get water to my ankles, but unless my husband is carrying me, I'm not going in the sea. I mean, there are sharks, and ursins and stuff. Plus fish use it as a bathroom. It's gross.

    The dark (because of my siblings)

    When I was a kid I was terrified by Michael Jackson because of Thriller. Kiss because of their make up.

    All kids should have been afraid of Michael Jackson.

    Drowning
    The fear of drowning has prevented me from learning how to swim and I'm pretty positive that I must have drown in a previous life! :grimace:

    I love to swim except in conditions where I do not know where the bottom is. That sensation of wtf is down there clogs my head and creates havoc in the gray matter. Oh and cue the Jaws Music...
