Thread: What are you afraid of?

I'm afraid of my really bad night mares since I get hurt everytime I have one. Woake up with a 2 foot gash in my leg after haveing one once

Walking barefoot in murky water

I only fear fear itself.

Fear?

Anyway, spiders. Freaking hate the little things.

Anything that i have no control over off. Like being locked somewhere and knowing there is no way out.

Spoiler for These things.:

Little things which you cannot see coming, like stupid insects, ALL OF THEM, every 9 quadrillion species of them, stay off my propertay!

I would much rather deal with coyotes and things which are large and cannot sneak under darn doorways and into your bedroom to say "hello there" "waiit no don't kill me ahhh!" :squish:

darn bugs. I hate and fear them, but I squish them with fury, bwahahaha

Socializing.

And blowing up balloons. Not balloons themselves, but the act of inflating them. I've had too many explode in my face when I was a kid.

By the way, the word "balloon" is fun to type.

lol Guerilla I completely understand!

I'm afraid of roaches- ESPECIALLY the flying wood roaches.

I used to be majorly afraid of porceline dolls- or any kind of large doll. I no longer have any dolls, so it's not much of a problem

I'm afraid of swimming in oceans or gulfs. I'm afraid of what could be hiding in seaweed and I've been stung by too many jellyfish.

Hmmm... Traveling makes me extremely anxious. I'm afraid some sort of large scale disaster will strike and I'll be separated from my loved ones and home.

I fear torture, and I fear being afraid, which is just one reason I have never watched a horror movie.

ELEVATORS!!!!! I have a nightmare about being stuck in an elevator/ elevator string being detached/ elevator going too fast/ too slow/ stops and lights go out/ being trapped in an elevator shaft is more common, every week. I could go on, but you get it.

I'm afraid to so much as look at them.

I used to be afraid of elevators. Every now and then I still have nightmares about them.
When I was 7, we lived in Puerto Rico, in a huge apartment/condo and the elevator always got stuck in between floors. And usually when I was by myself. The doors would open and I'd be staring at a wall and for some reason that always scared me.
It took me a long time to get over the fear, but I did.

What better reason to own a flamethrower right?

I once had a egg of spiders hatch in my room. I wouldn't sleep in my bed because at one moment I saw 10+ baby spiders crawling all over it. They were everywhere and it was horrible!

Any sort of insect/bug/thing-with-more-then-4-legs.
Top of my list would be...
Hairy Spiders;
Jumping Spiders (seriously, I swear they jump 5 metres... );
Spiders that run exceedingly quickly...
Those spiders that look like sticks... http://www.idilium.com/Australian_Wi...casting-24.jpg
Spiders that are bigger then a freakin' house; http://www.spiderzrule.com/spiderpho...spider%203.jpg
Those spiders that have big asses... http://ibexinc.files.wordpress.com/2...dow-spider.jpg
Funnel Web spiders;
Overgrown Centipedes; http://www.ipm.iastate.edu/ipm/icm/f...-soil-A1_0.jpg
BIG moths... http://birdaz.com/blog/wp-content/up...r-2007-156.bmp

I swear to god, I am never searching 'spiders' on Google Images again. Never.


I also have this irrational fear of walking into people when they're walking in the same direction as me in public spaces... It makes me feel... Anxious.

EDIT: @The Silver Bullet- thanks so much for that... Curiousity got the better of me and I clicked it... -shudders- xD

Haha, Sorry but I had to share that one, they look more menacing than black widows .

Also, I have a small fear of waking up buried alive. You would be down there all alone with limited air and space. Not to mention all of the other creepy critters that would be crawling all over you.

interesting i have the same thing with traveling, I went to LA a while ago and had terrible fear of a big earthquake and didn't feel safe till we crossed back over the san andreas fault.

omg swimming in big open water terrifys me, I have a fear of big open spaces first off, like beaches and deserts and I hate being outdoor unless theres alot of big tall trees or something to cover the skyline and make it seem more confined, im sorta anti-claustrophobic, I need to be in closed spaces to feel safe, odd ?

NOT to mention sharks! jellyfish...yuck seaweed and nasty stuff

I swim in pools!

This happened to me too. It was awful.

Says she who posted five links to scary bugs. -shudders-

The list of things I'm scared of just goes on and on... Spiders, heights, the dark (if I'm alone, or with someone else who's afraid)... I'm also slightly claustrophobic.

I know this sounds cliché, but I don't have anything I'm scared of. If you look at everything, when it comes down to it, what kills you kills you and if it happens there isn't much you can do about it.

Though I'm all that would fall apart in a scary enough situation .

I forgot to mention bees. Bees are scary. And wasps, and in general anything else that buzzes.

Death. Brain damage.

spiders,yellow jackets.

scare the shit out of me

Drowning/burning (whether I die or not)
Planes (I love them since they take me where I wanna go, I hate the idea that I'm waaaay far away from the ground with no chance of survival if anything goes wrong.)
Bees and anything that resembles a bee. (creepy little flying demons.)
Losing sight/hearing (I'm an artist who's obsessed with music.)
Ever having a kid. (Don't wanna be pregnant, don't wanna adopt, I don't wanna take care of another human.)
Not being able to travel outside the country again (addicted to travel.)
Oh and being unaware of what I'm doing. I've never used drugs or alcohol or anything, and I'm scared of ever having to get any kind of surgery done cause they'll give me something that makes me loopy, and I won't know what I did or said in that time.
