What are your phobias?

Got any?

Anyone?



edited to add: mine are heights, snakes, and spiders. I'm getting over the snakes, though. Public speaking is a biggie, too.

Those are the biggies! :(
 
I'm not sure if they qualify as phobias, exactly.

I won't go near pools or ponds or pretty much anything like that. Terrified of drowning. When I was a kid, the neighbor kids tried to drown me, and I've been accidentally tossed into a pool twice after that. So I just stay away now.
 
Climbing on ladders. The soles of my feet and the palms of my hands sweat. I don't mind heights, but I climb ladders with great difficulty.

I don't like spiders, I would rather have someone else kill them, though, cuz I don't like the "crunch" sound.

Fingers and doors. Bad combo. I am always saying to people "Watch your fingers!" Even when I don't know them. Even when they are old.

Not even armadillos?

Mine are snakes.. I've had to kill a few around here and I squeal like a lil girl while I'm doing it. *shudder*

Hey, I meant 'startled', not scared, ok? I can be startled as much as anyone, I can be repulsed or made to feel anxious...I thought we were talking about 'unreasonable fears'. I don't have any of those.

Well we wouldn't expect you to squeal like a rhinocerous, would we? ;)

So if an armadillo came up to you now you wouldn't kick it 40 feet away?

Gephyrophobia


the fear of bridges..

I used to get so scared crossing bridges that I would pee my pants. :eek:

How did I get over it?? I married one! ;)
 
I have a rampant phobia of slugs. If you had my nightmares you would know why.

I'm also deeply afraid of people of all stripes.

I'm also afraid of churches and other holy sites. THey make me panic.

I shriek, scream, whimper and squeal... I do all of that when I'm taking care of a snake.

If I saw it in a pet shop, i'd pick it up and play with it, same with snakes. If it dased out from a hole in teh ground and onto my foot again...*PUNT*
 
Snakes
Creepy crawlies
Small animals (gerbils, mice) crawling on me.
Heights.

None of these are so bad that I can't function or deal with them - but they do bother me enough to somewhat impair my functioning.
 
Mine are:

spiders
snakes
mice/rats
thunderstorms
large crowds
public speaking
heights
in certain situatins, the dark (usually just when there's a storm and the power goes out)

I'm a coward, I know.

:p
