Do you have a crazy....

I know snakes arent all that uncommon a fear but my phobia of them is intense. Just seeing a picture of one makes me break into a cold sweat and start trembling. When I had to read Huck Finn in high school I had nightmares for weeks after reading the part when Jim got bit by a rattlesnake.0

i have this absolute phobia of our government.
i fear that they will start chipping away at our rights and freedoms and use terrorism and drugs as justification.
but my worst fear is that people won't notice or care and just accept it.
oh wait.
Winston Smith, is that you?!0 -
I don't if you have all seen Kindergarten cop but there is a part when Arnold looks out the window and see the psycho crazy dude right outside his window in the rain with a gun. Basically that is my fear since I saw that. I literally can't walk past windows in the dark or the rain. I run past or close the blinds with my eyes closed. Weird.0

throwing up. if someone else is throwing up, i will run out of the house/building and refuse to come back in. if i know i am going to throw up, i start crying like a baby, or i shake so bad i can barely stand up. i apologize in advance to my future children, but if they ever get the flu, they're on their own

Ants, all ants, big ones, little ones, red ones, black ones, all of them. They freak me out!!
I left one out, I always cannot and will not look out of a dark window at night. I have to have my blinds closed or curtains shut. I always think I am going to see eyes staring back at me. Crazy.:devil:0 -
I am scared of ending up alone (even though I am married and have an enormous amount of family members...maybe the apocalypse? ) I am also still spooked by the dark (or what's hiding in the dark.)0

No irrational phobias here - But I do have a friend who has a playing card phobia. Hilarious!
As for me, only things I dislike are ladders (they just feel unsafe) and closed in lifts - whole box suspended by a few strong cables and a windy mechanism (I don't know the full workings I will admit) I have no problem with glass ones though, perhaps it's some part of my subconscious that's decided if I'm going to die inside a falling elevator at least I can see my surroundings before I go splat.0 -
I'm also afraid of closet monsters (yes, you read that correctly). I can't sleep with my closet door open. I'm convinced that if the door is open and something is hiding in there I can't see or hear them come out. But if the door is closed then I will hear it open and be able to defend myself. I've been this way for as long as I can remember. My husband thinks I'm bonkers.
Oh no, I have the closet monster fear too! Also the monster under the bed fear. I'm convinced these monsters are siblings.
If the closet is closed I'm fine, but I can't sleep with an open closet door. My current home has a large, cavernous closet in my bedroom, with an irregular opening that can't house a door. I'll only sleep upstairs if I have a friend or my boyfriend with me. Otherwise it's the couch for me.
I am also terrified of basements. I can usually go down there, but coming back up means speeding up the stairs as fast as possible! And I'll never glance behind me, never.0 -

I fear for the survival of mankind with all these irrational fears...
Oh yeah and I don't like cockroaches!!0 -
Used to be really scared of horses. Not sure why, but it is much better now. I can actually aproach a horse now without shaking.0

I hate large shops. Claustrophic wouldn't be the right way to describe it, but it's just the large space with the huge amount of stuff in it- it drives me crazy. After 15 minutes I've got a headache and have had enough.
Also, I used to never be able to be in a room with an open door. As a child, I was always scared of ghosts and of course the most common thing is the door suddenly slamming shut. So I would always have to have doors closed, so a ghost couldn't suddenly slam it.
Such a weird kid.0 -
I have a few.
Bridges, because they can break/fall. (I don't mind going over them so much as being stuck in traffic on them.)
Clausterphobia, I don't even sleep with my face covered.
People who are "double jointed". No! I don't want to see how you can touch the back of your hand with your fingers.
Being on boats/ships.... I have to be drunk or drugged to get me on them. I don't want to be on a sinking boat/ship.
Planes, because they are always crashing, or catching fire.
My house catching on fire. I always check to make sure all the "important stuff" I need is in a easy to grab place just in case.
Those are just some.0 -

Bugs in general.
One time I was in the shower and I looked to my left at what I thought was a glob of hair on the shower curtain. I went to shake it off and it was a giant centipede. I ripped the curtain open and ran screaming for bloody hell.0 -
I have the same issue, I mean I guess with stairs in my house I can rush it up, but it also happens when walling down the street, something creeps me out if they behind me. Need then next to or in front of me all the time.Yess!!! I can't have someone walking behind me on stairs. I don't know why but it scares the heck out of me!!
I either let them go a head (which probably makes it seem like i want to check there bum out hahaha) or I BOOK it down/up which usually ends with me tripping.
It's a hard life! :P0 -

Octopusses. Octopi? I would be terrified if there was an Octopuss in front of me. Aquariums and swimming in the sea is a problem for me. I can't even google "Octopuss" - the pictures alone freak me out.0

Spiders...I can't even look at them in a book and my heart races and I freak out..LOL. I also have a crazy phobia of thunderstorms To my defense...When I was 9 yrs. old we were in the tail end of a huge tornado (1979) and I witnessed a lot of trauma to people and kids I went to school with. It was horrible and sad as one of my friends mother was killed :sad: I've never got over this even with trips to the doctor :frown: I also have a fear of a flock of any feathered friend. I was attacked by a bunch of chickens and a mad rooster in a coop when I was 13. I can feed them and like them from a distance, just don't invade my space!! :laugh:0

The dentist. Need valium to go.
Snakes. Ewwwww. They creep me out.
Feet - not afraid of feet but just yuck.
Loose teeth. So gross.0 -
I fear nothing :smokin:
But I do have a favorite phobia:
hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia
Fear of long words.
Same here.
My favorites are Autorhinophagophobia (fear of eating one's own nose) and Anatidaephobia (the fear that somewhere, somehow, you are being watched by a duck).0 -
:sad: I have a major fear that I am going to get locked in somewhere and not be able to get out. I never lock car doors. I had a friend of mine disable the feature on my car that automatically locks the doors when you put it in drive. I don't like to have the doors locked when I am in the house. We never lock our bedroom door or the bathroom door. At work I will wait until I am the only one in the bathroom and hold the stall door closed instead of turning the lock when I need to pee. When I was in college we were playing hide and seek one night (highly intoxicated). I told my friend I was going to hide in the trunk of my car and asked her to come get me in a few minutes. She forgot me! About 30 minutes had passed from the time I closed the trunk to the time she remembered and came back with several other friends and opened the trunk. That is when the freak outs about locks started. I know it was my own stupid fault for getting in the trunk and that it is highly unlikely I will get locked in somewhere, but I can't shake the fear.0

Two for me
Physical contact - I hate being touched by random people, the thought of a social hug or even a handshake makes me die a little inside (clearly I'm ok with my husband and son, friends I tolerate in order to not upset them but thats it - no touching strangers EVER) the thought of a massage makes me vomit, even going to the hairdressers is tough. Goint to Turkey for my holiday this year and apparently they are VERY tactile. I may end up getting arrested for smacking an overly friendly turk!!
Tomato Ketchup - weird I know but the sight, smell, texture and even the noise it makes when you shake the bottle makes me panic and sweat. I even avoid the sauce aisle in the supermarket just in case someone drops a bottle near me.
Obviously I need help :blushing:0 -
clowns...

and big old cars that could come to life and kill me.... and everyone else.. ( i may have snuck and watched those movies while my big sister was watching it once and scared the **** out of me0 -
