I'm scared of big dark masses of water at night. For some reason crossing bridges at night gives me chills.
And you, what are you afraid of?

    I am afraid of falling whenever I feel like I am high up. This includes somehow falling through that glass wall of an elevator.

    Interesting. Is the fear enough that you've never gone into the ocean? What about boats?

    That would be irrational. I have been on cruises abd boats. It's just if I have to jump in I can't. I have jumped in the pool twice because me son wanted ne to but it's hard. It's like I become paralysed and stand at the edge unable to move

    SPIDERS! In my defense, they are spawns of Satan.

    Every time I get on an elevator I pray to God it doesn't free fall. When I was younger I used to have this recurring dream where I would get on this particular elevator and as soon as I stepped inside, it would fall. That's where I got my fear of elevators.

    I have a pretty secure case of arachnophobia. I can't even put a shoe on without making someone check it for spiders lol
