[Mali]

Getting trapped in revolving doors.
Escalators. I can't look down when I go on them, or I get confused and panic.


Your turn. Yes you.

[colordeaf]

I can't stand pennies, or being surrounded by money. For this reason I'm trying to find an alternate line from the one in Slide mentioning said objects.

I can't stand metal buttons either.

[Molotovna]

Odd numbers and germs.

[Haushinka]

Falling. Not heights, but the fear of falling. I could sit on the edge of a cliff and be quite content. But the idea of falling off even a foot high wall terrifies me. I can't drive beside ditches. I could never bail out of a plane. As a child I couldn't even go on bouncy castles.

[caddy]

elevators. i feel like they could stop, and fall at any second without a moment's notice.

the idea of falling off a tall place also does not excite me.

Yes, I have this exact same fear.  I am also afraid of bicycles and, really, anything with wheels.  Cars are more solid, but bicycles, roller skates/blades, skateboards, all make me feel really unsafe.

[yosmark]

Awfull streets at night, to be kidnaped, to die drowned and you know to fail.

If i can´t solve a math, physics or programing problem that i should be able to solve i get all scared but really scared and then i focus in that only problem until i solve it.

[85283-071]

Perceptual entropy precipitated by the dissolution of bright colors into the void of chromatic blandness is my most persistent fear.

I think they call it tanophobia.

[85283-071]

Awfull streets at night, to be kidnaped, to die drowned and you know to fail.

That sounds like what people have told me to expect from Mexico City.

[yosmark]

^ that´s why i am so afraid, it could happen when i go to buy some milk and cookies.

[$ethie]

The dark.

It terrifies me. Before I started taking medication, I had hallucinations, both auditory and visual). This is all the way back to childhood, and they were always more vivid in the dark. My parents and former roommates tell me that sometimes I'll start to scream in my sleep if someone would happen to shut the lights off (I sleep with the lights on), but since I'm sleeping when it happens, I can't know for sure. I had a sleep study done several years ago, when I was having really horrible nightmares, and they said that I was having night terrors.

In my last apartment, there was the door, then the living room, and then the kitchen. The mud room had a light, but the side of the living room nearest the mud room didn't have light switch to turn on the main light. Apparently the builders thought that the light from the mud room would be enough to walk through and turn on the light from the switch on the other side of the room. Anyway, my point is I'm so freaked out by the dark that I got a permit from my landlord (and another from the city) to have a contractor and an electrician come in and install another switch on the other side of the room, at the cost of $600.

In every apartment I've lived in, I kept a flashlight in every room, except for my bedroom. I kept three in there; one right on the floor by the bed, one in the night table, and one by the door. I keep two in my car, and I have a tritium key fob and a pen light on my keys. Oh, and I drive with the overhead light on. Which, is apparently illegal, and has gotten me pulled over twice.

It's a phobia that you learn to live with.

[Bad Kitty]

Moths.

I hate/fear them. Passionately. Maniacally.

I thought tanophobia was the fear of this:

[85283-071]

Oh...eh... I think I have that too then.

falling in love with someone i can never have

jdfu!

[Eden]

spiders... those things just panic or paralyse me...
and really unexpected situation where I don't know how to react

[RaggedyAnn]

hyenas. I'm actually starting to get over this fear, but I still strongly dislike them.
I'm absolutely terrified of getting old.

[Golly Mina!]

Spiders, maggots, worms of all sorts.
Then there's my feet-phobia.
Then there's my fear of being buried alive or dying only to wake up 6 feet under.
Then my claustrophobia, I can't stand being in small spaces, i feel as if the walls are closing in on me (which is also one of my fears).
The fear of my parents dying (which I know will eventually happen).
And I'm not that fond of elevators, either.

[CeeGBee]

Then there's my fear of being buried alive or dying only to wake up 6 feet under.

Doesn't everyone in your country do this?
Or is it just the folks in Transylvania?   [hey, what happened to the vampire-bat smiley?]

No, we still do that, it's just that I've done it so many times and frankly, the whole escape thing is quite tiring (as exemplified by Uma Thurman in Kill Bill).
Yes, Ardeal is the right word. However, Ardeal does not equal Transylvania.
And as surprising as it may seem, I haven't heard that many vampire jokes, so entertain me:D

Oh I got one,too
Three vampires having a drink. Two pop a bottle of blood and start gulping. The third pulls out a used tampon and puts it into a coffee mug.
"What are you doing?" ask the two
"I'm having some tea".
Not that good, but I can't think of any other jokes.

[CeeGBee]

Actually, I thought of that one, but thought in in sufficiently poor taste that I decided not to post it.

[Shakti]

I have the falling one...I've always thought of it as heights, but it isn't really.  I can look out the window of an airplane or down from an enclosed lookout like the Hancock or the Pru.  An open monument like Bunker Hill or Bennington or the Empire State, on the other hand, freaks me right the fuck out.  And so much in Calefornia -- the Steep, not Golden, State, in my book.  So many cliffs!  Gah! Glad to be home!

Does anybody else who has the falling one have it in the third person?  I used to see people letting their preschoolers play near the edge of highway 1 in California and the heart palpitations were as strong as if it were me on that edge.  Hated it, every bit of it!

[Ecstasia]

Traffic.  I hate the feeling of not being able to move or go anywhere if I have to.  Last summer or the one before, we got stuck in traffic and I actually started to cry.  Not one of my prouder moments, but now anytime we hit traffic, I get panicky.

Centipedes.  I've tried to get over it by they're just so freaky.

My #1 fear, though, is sea monsters.  It's not so bad as I've never actually come across one, but the thought of it being a possibility terrifies me.  No one can convince me that they don't exist.  Even if they don't exist as something in Loch Ness monster form, whales and those huge effing squids are terrifying.  You will never catch me on a boat on any large body of water.

[CeeGBee]

Centipedes.  I've tried to get over it by they're just so freaky.

HEY WYYYY-ATT!!!   

Even if they don't exist as something in Loch Ness monster form...

Bite your tongue...

Centipedes.  I've tried to get over it by they're just so freaky.

HEY WYYYY-ATT!!!   

I guess it's a safe bet Ecstasia won't be coming to the apartment for dinner. This place is the Lair of the Giant Centipede.

My fantasy is to breed one so big I can saddle it up and ride it to work.

Stonoshka died, sadly... but Anasazi is almost six inches now. She was less than three inches when I first had her. She'll probably make the eleven inch mark.

Stonoshka, RIP...

[CeeGBee]

....because it's funny when you're frightened...

I dunno if I'd say I'm "afraid" of centipedes, but if that Anasazi there showed up at
my place she'd leave as bug-paste.   Y'all have fun though.

You'd want to be careful to avoid a bite. Anasazi is scolopendra heros (not like the one in the picture). Heros envenomate with a necrotoxin... flesh eating, basically.

If only she had the hardware to get it through the sole of my shoe....

But seriously, is that a native species?  I seem to recall you discussing the origin of your 'pedes,
but not the specifics, nor where (maybe on the "old Box")...

[Strict Nine]

I am bothered by Exit signs on the freeway. I have to fight the urge to take them even when I know I shouldn't. But I suppose this isn't really a fear. Maybe it should go under strange quirks.

I am terrified of getting lost out in the middle of nowhere.

[85283-071]

But seriously, is that a native species?  I seem to recall you discussing the origin of your 'pedes,

Heros is native to the desert Southwest. Mine is of the subspecies "castineiceps".



I would like to also acquire an "arizonensis".



After that, most of my wish list is comprised of Soth American and African species.

[Ecstasia]

There is no excuse for anything having that many legs.

[85283-071]

Those are actually pretty low on the myriapod totem pole, in terms of leg number. Scolopendromorphs have forty-two legs. Some of the soil centipedes and millipedes have many, many more than that. I think the little suckers we find under most logs in temperate climates of North America have thirty legs.. scutigeromorps and lithobiomorphs. They are little. While they are, technically, poisonous, they haven't the venom, nor the biting power, to ever harm a human. Scutigera (house centipede) isn't even that aggressive if it was able to inflict a wound.

They are the only centipedes with compound eyes.

Wow... I never planned on knowing all this.

[i~Totally~DigGiantRobots!]

Moths.

I hate/fear them. Passionately. Maniacally.

Fucking hell I couldn't agree with you more! I HATE MOTHS! And I only found out that 2 years ago when a big fucking giant moth was flying around in my room we finished a damn whole can of Raid on it to kill it, I even refused to carry the plastic bag we put it in when it died at first, then I carried it anyway and threw it in the middle of the street in front of our house in hopes that a car would sqush it, but i squished it myself to make sure... When I went back in the house I felt really damn sad and guilty about killing a clueless little animal, I usually spare the lives of little critters, but I guess that when I see a moth again I'd probably neutralize it again out of plain fear... It's quite sad how their lives mean nothing.. heh.

Heh, Pics of moths are fine, even pretty, but have a big one flying around me and I'll go crazy!

[Indja]

Alsatians and mannequins are probably my top two. Urgh, they scare me so much. I have to run past the dummies they have in shops, it's well embarrassing. And I was walking with this supercute boy the other day, and this alsatian walked by on the other side of the street, and I was literally a quivering, cowering mess, cold sweats and everything. Somehow, think I may have put said supercutey off a bit ^.^

[85283-071]

I suppose you won't be buying a realdoll anytime soon.

How would you react to a living statue?

[Indja]

1. I suppose you won't be buying a realdoll anytime soon.

2. How would you react to a living statue?

1. HELL NO!

2. It was actually a living statue that gave birth (so to speak) to the fear originally - I was about 5, pulling faces at a mannequin in a shop window in the Trafford Centre, and it jumped at me. I shit myself. Actually, literally-speaking, I wet myself. It was fucking horrible.

Lately though, I've coped better with them. I really like them, as long as they don't move until you give them money. Those ones that just jump at you for shits are fucking evil bastards. *scowl*

[Mandolin Rain]

i'm incredibly fearful of taxidermy.
i always feel like a goon when at this kitschy store downtown
that has a few goat heads, a bear head, and a fake lion displayed for sale.
I always end up PARALYZED with fear, even though EVERYTIME i try and
force myself to get past it all. It's a really dumb fear.

[dangerpants]

my boyfriend really wants to take me to the beach.

goddamnit.

I told him to give me a date two weeks ahead... so I can call off work, and start taking my SSRIs again.

[85283-071]

Drowning. Not water, LOVE water. But the idea of being sucked under, unable to breath, and completely surrounded by the constant pressure of the water. Blargh, scares me shitless.

[caddy]

social networking and forums are starting to become a huge fear for me.

ah, and fear of success. nothing worse than making something out of yourself.

[Indja]

[85283-071]

So, drowning in milk wouldn't be so bad.

[Molotovna]

Drowning in jello would be much more difficult, I imagine.

[bec]

belly buttons. for serious.

butterflies
snorkelling
fire - i've never lit a match... or a lighter
the dark (ever since watching that one scene in The Silence Of The Lambs where Buffalo Bill has night-vision goggles. GAH)

No, I think that would be OK. The smell would be a bit weird, but I guess you'd get over it, what with the whole drowning-to-death thing.

That's actually a fantasy of mine ^_^ Jelly or custard, I'm undecided.

Fucking hell.

[bec]

^ pretty much.

but i do have a high tolerance to most of the more common fears. e.g. i'll walk into a room containing 40 freshly preserved corpses (at college) and not care in the slightest. spiders don't bother me. neither do heights, small spaces or public speaking.


in a past life, i was probably on a boat preparing to snorkel in the dark, when a butterfly flew into my belly button and caused me to spontaneously combust.

[Devery]

When I was young, I feared the dark, basements, attics and water spots on the ceiling.  I outgrew all of those (even though I still put basements in my poems almost continuously - so maybe the fear is still there).

I have an unnatural fear of water, which makes no sense to me because I have always been an excellent swimmer.  I can swim two miles in the pool but, despite really wanting to swim the same distance in the lake, I can't do it.  I even gave up waterskiing because I dreaded falling.  I damn near had a heart attack when I fell one time in the weeds.

My second fear is caterpillars.  Those little fuckers are everywhere right now.  They're all over the deck, climbing the outside walls of the house, on the door.  Why do they affect me so?  Like every other kid, at one time I thought they were cute.  Then, one day, I was outside painting a house in a pair of white painting overalls.  I was rustling around in the bushes to paint the bottom of the siding when I felt a STING! in my most private of areas.  I pulled off the overalls and there was one of those little fuckers that had somehow made its way up my leg to bite me.  I was nauseus for days just thinking about it and, ever since, I can't stand even looking at one.  And now, they're having a fucking convention all around me.  I can't even go outside on the deck for a coffee and a cig.  Fuckers!

I have similar fears of the water. I dislike swimming in water that I cannot see through. Every time I've been to the ocean, I'll go swimming, but I'm always extremely paranoid about jellyfish.

And fishflies - or mayflies, as they're also know - freak me out, too. Especially so since I live so close to Lake St. Clair, they get really bad. It is sort of funny though when you go to make a turn whilst driving and you slide ever-so-nicely across the road from the fishfly guts you've just squished out with your tires. When I was in High School, they used to have to shovel them out of the doorways, but they always managed to get inside and all over the lockers. What a bunch of nasty.

when camping I always worry that someone's going to stab me through tent

[Pope Totalfrog]

I am a perfectly balanced individual with no strange fears at all. Seriously none. Well maybe one.....

I do have a gut wrenching fear that we will be invaded by aliens or taken over by our own technology, resulting in a Terminator-like apocalyptic future.

But other than that I am perfectly balanced.

I LOVE blood tests. The way my blood just squirts so flow-y into that tube. And I have a blood fetish so that can explain why. Except it scares me that they take 3 tubes and fill each one up to the last drop. I heard that if you were to cut your vein the blood would spray 6 meters. I've never seen it happen but when they take my blood it just sprays in there like nuts!

I just got back from a canal boat holiday, and my dumbass da made me walk through a pitch black, 500 feet long tunnel. I was SO unhappy.

[shibby]

1. I used to keep my lights on all night, but I stopped being able to sleep. (Something about the chemicals in my brain reacting to the light and thinking it was daytime). It was because my mom's house freaks me out. Ever since we moved there when I was ten.
2. Heights. Not falling.
3. Zombies. It's completely irrational, but I look for escape routes and weapons, just in case. There's an axe in a closet about a yard from this computer, and four exits.

I have a friend who is afraid of octopuses (octopi?), and another friend who couldn't leave her house one night when, two years ago, there was a sudden heat wave in February and all the moths hatched early, all at the same time.

childbirth.

Same here. Pregnancy in general as well

childbirth.

Not a problem. Once you've been born, it's unlikely to happen again.

Suddenly i happen to be afraid of alot of things, for example 5 minutes ago i noticed the room has only one bulb on, i started to feel very insecure music is helping, still i am afraid and insecure; tips or recomendtions?

[Half Mar]

I've got a lot.. I had (or have actually, only now I can control it) a panic and anxiety disorder. I was afraid to leave the house, to lose control, to be alone (still have that, sort of), afraid to have a panic attack which made me afraid to die. I was almost scared of everything which made my life for a long time a complete hell. Thank god things are better now (:

Some fears I do still have; I'm scared as hell for spiders, the give me the creeps. I also hate heights and small spaces, it makes me feel trapped.

Ohh god I get panic attacks. they are HORRIBLE! For the most random reasons too. One time I actually had a panic attack just laying in bed listening to Will. Seriously, I thought I was going to die.

Yeah, feels like dying indeed. And I recognize your story, had the same thing a few times. Don't remember what the songs were, but in a strange way they could give me panic attacks :/

[klingi]

I've got many smalll fears that scare me from time to time...

Here's a selection:
-the idea that my shelf could fall down on me when I'm sleeping
-the idea that the flat I live in could burn down and I'll lose all my (personal) stuff
-the idea not to have enough money
-the idea of not being able to remember important incidents in my life

[Indja]

I get scared that if I'm talking to someone while I'm walking along, if they walk behind me or where I can't see them, that they're not really there and I'm actually just crazy. I also hate using telephones, just in general.

I feel that exact same way!

I also have fears of:
-heights (VERY SEVERE)
-falling, especially but not necessarily from heights
-small places but only certain small places (I'm fine in showers and elevators, but get creeped out in, say, closets, especially crowded ones
-things with too many legs (like spiders and ants) and with not enough legs (like snakes and snails)
-things that are all icky and slimy and/or soupy (like slugs and bouillabaisse)
-things not being at right angles
-odd numbers other than 5 and sometimes 3 and 7
-things not being in order
-and others along those lines.....

[shibby]

Still afraid of getting inoculations. The doctor has always scared me, but it's gotten worse now because I keep getting bad news, or no news at all, which is worse. Having blood drawn gets me anxious because I can't retain iron, and the last time I lost a bit of blood I nearly passed out and had to get two units of plasma. The shots are always the worst, though, the doctor thought I was going to pass out last time.

Oh, and I can't pee in a cup. At all. I need the special plastic thing they put between the seat. They usually reserve that particular humiliation for old people.

[yosmark]

Not knowing something i have to know for a class or something like that.

[lucyanna]

I have quite a lot of fears which is pretty annoying. I fear a lot of social situations and I probably make this a lot worse by over thinking situations beforehand and always assuming the worst scenario (in my head) will be the one to actually take place (i even get a little scared posting on forums). I quite often get the feeling that someone's behind me and when I turn around I always seem to jump a little even when no one is there (it once took me about ten minutes to calm down after turning and walking into this spinning rainbow thing hanging from my ceiling). also rats (after particularly horrible nightmares) moths dogs getting lost spiders the dark (that one's getting a bit better) upsetting people...plus some others

trying to call someone on the telephone and always fucking up the numbers on the dialing pad, and then having to restart all over and over again, and then getting so nervous, panicked and frustrated, that i feel like i have to pee.

[caddy]

ah, i just discovered a new one.

fear of closeness--emotionally or physically.  i just can't get close, and stay there.  the minute i realize i've grown close to somebody, my mind will work overtime, thinking of ways to hurt them.  ~shrugs~  talk about your sadism and masochism.  i'm more than sure that it's a symptom of something, but i don't care to find out.

I can't play chess without shaking and hyperventilating. I guess I'm scared... either that or it's a crazy nervous disorder... I'm like that too with musical chairs! But then again, I'm also afraid of being in cars... even the city bus!

My da's scared of being next to large ships. I'm not even kidding. We were watching the first POTC and you know that bit where they go over to the Black Pearl in a rowing boat? Da was like squirming in his seat at the thought of it. He also hates being on the top of deep water. And he's scared of chickens - says he got "cornered" by one as a child - and balloons. And fireworks. And he hates the smell of hairdryers with a mad passion.

He's a strange, strange man...

I have an irrational fear of stumps, not so much the lack of a limb, but the skin that grows over the end. It really disturbs me. I can cope with it, and it's a horrible thing to hate because I know nobody chooses it. But still. eep.

snoring.
i can't even explain how much it scares me to hear someone snoring. i'm also terrified that i'll start snoring when i'm older. GAH

another massive fear is losing control. i'll probably never drink, and definitely won't smoke or take drugs. i was given nitrous oxide (laughing gas) as a kid when i had teeth extracted, and the experience traumatised me more than my parents will ever understand. how lame.

mostly.  actually, that might be right on the monies.  *looks around at paper.doll and Andy*  nice to know i'm not the only one.  meh.  i distrust human beings so much, but mostly subconsciously.  once i regain whatever consciousness i have left, i realize what's happened, and i try to repairing the situation.  oddly enough, this time around, i haven't exactly done that yet.  i doubt i'll ever even get the opportunity.

I can't leave the house without visiting the bathroom first. My mother made us do it every time (even if we didn't have to pee) we went out, so now it's a pattern/OCD thing for me.

Oh I know! I'm terrified about needing to use the toilet when I'm at my boyfriend's place. So I just take some Imodium (constipation pills) before I leave. I know it's not healthy and it can damage my brain cells, but I just cannot stand the thought of him knowing that I'm in his bathroom, pooping.

I always get scared and irrational whenever I start to feel ill. I immediately assume that I'm dying and have been ignoring the symptoms. Part of my brain goes "I've been trying to tell you for years.. now it's too late. You're dying. Ha."

Headaches obviously mean I have a brain tumour. Bad emotional states mean I'm going insane and will never recover. Insomnia also mean "going crazy". As does sleeping too much. Stomch aches are cancer. Colds are punishment for not eating enough vegetables. Foot ache after walking too much is an obvious indicator of some kind of degenerative musculo-skeletal disorder. Mystery aches and pains = cancer. Period pain = cancer of the ladyparts.

welcome to the sick sad world of Hypochondria.  i has it, too.  don't worry, it really IS all in your head.
ummm....back when i was 12-years-old, i thought having slightly uneven breasts meant i had breast cancer, and i gave up on life.
then i had an uneven period, and thought i have some sort of cervical cancer.
and then i read my mom's medical dictionary, and thought i had acute glaucoma.
then i felt fat, and immediately thought i had teh diabetes, and lost 40 pounds.
then i had horrible irrational fears at night, and thought i was going insane.
then because i thought i was insane, i thought the world was going to end.  literally.  boom.  eh, i was Christian back then.

oh oh!  and aside from that, i was having horrible, horrible bouts of sleep paralysis, so i thought that i was either being cursed by somebody, or that death was upon me.  i literally never thought i'd live past 20-years-old.  bah

ever since then, i've still had troubles with hypochondria. 

[Golly Mina!]

Mind if I join the club? The slightest symptom will get blown out of proportions in my head, regardless how common it may be

[caddy]

yeah, we should totally start a club.  then we could point out each other's symptoms, and somewhere down the road, sick of feeling sick, we could convert to a suicide club.

[nottheonethatscrazy]

I hate cotton balls.
Everytime I see them I imagine someone grinding them between their teeth.
My brother used to shove them in my mouth when I was wee, and it was really icky.

[lashingoutloud]

ceiling fans -- they terrify me.  no matter how many times people say that mythbusters busted the myth that a ceiling fan can decapitate me, i hold on to the fear.  other things similar, also, like helicopters and lawnmowers (i believe there was a scene in that peter jackson zombie flick that terrified me with its use of lawnmower -- or maybe it was a blender).

[heartstringz]

My main fear is of the dark.  I have been terrified of the dark since I was a child, my parents said I would grow out of it and I never did.  I have to sleep with at least a nightlight on, if not the proper light.  If I'm at home in my own room I'm usually ok with a nightlight, but usually if I'm away I totally freak out and have to use the proper light.  I sleep with a torch by my bed constantly, and have to have my door closed - I can't sleep with it open.  If I'm home alone at night I have to turn on all the lights - I can't walk down the hallway in the dark, it freaks me out.

I'm glad I'm not the only one here afraid of the dark, it makes me feel so much better - I thought I was a wierd freak and that no-one else had a fear like mine.

~I am terrified of spiders and snakes
~I freak out if I have to talk on the telephone (although I think this is mostly related to my total lack of self-esteem -I worry that the other people around me are judging me whilst I'm on the phone).  This has got a little better - at one stage I couldn't even use the phone, now I can but I still get all nervous and tongue-tied and panicky.

i was afraid of getting lost, especially when i'm driving in cities. this is probably because i am not very good with directions. everyone says its easy to get un-lost because everything is on a grid, but its not so easy when you start to panic. the reason that i came to get over the fear for the most part is because april and i went to visit her grandmother in las vegas. i had to drive on the strip and to her cousins house everyday. so pretty much i had to drive all over. we even got lost once heading to red rock mountain instead of sunrise mountain, but it was very easy to get home because everything was on a grid. go figure.

also, i think that april is getting me a gps for christmas. so yay. 

oh, a strange fear.
well sometimes, usually at bedtime, because lighting is poor or absent i am afraid to look at april. i am afraid that she will mutate into a beast and try to eat me, or that she'll become possessed and her face would contort into a twisted, terrifying leer. sometimes i look at her and she looks like shes scowling at me, or like her skin is moving around on her face. if im facing away from her, once in a while, im afraid that shes going to flop over, grab me from behind and choke me. usually, i just nudge her with my elbow a little and then she says," are you okay, sweetie? do you need something?", and then i'm okay.

[justinfire]

Mental illness -- well, more being unaware of having a mental illness. Or being crazy and shrinks. Last year, I went through all this hellish family/personal life shit, very publicly, and my college advisor FORCED me to take some therapy sessions at the school. Went once, never again. I'm pretty sure I gots me the bipolar, which i think makes my fear null, but eh. I'm weird. Haha

Failure.

Loss of control. Like I'd spill my guts about things that should never be thought and especially not spoken.

Hahhaah, I'm pretty sure that all guys fear this, but getting an erection at a terrible time. It's constantly on my mind when I'm roughhousing (do people actually say that?) with other dudes. Which would change my status from "bi guy-friend that's managed to keep dude-friends in hellhole, small-minded Nebraska" to "creepy bi guy that wants to fuck everything that moves and has no guy friends."

Which I guess leads into my other dumb fear:

To be ostracized.

I'm heading off to Alexandra Palace tonight. Since I'm travelling from Waterloo station, that trip is an extra hour in addition to getting to London in the first place. I am absolutely terrified, especially on the return journey, of getting lost and I seriously don't want to miss the last train back home. The feeling of being left stranded at a train station with nowhere to go until about 5/6am in the morning really scares me.

I have maps and shit to help me get there and back but still...things could easily go wrong.

[XxavoOo]

dogs. i panic them. u have no idea.
u see, my brother got bitten by a humongous dog (im NOT exaggerating. its head is bigger than mine.). i was right next to him when it happened, and now EVERY dog freaks me out.
i can only accept miniature dogs (really small ones, and they dont have to be angry (no biting))...

other than that, i fear that awkward situation in which you bump into someone, and you try to dodge ghim (u go left), but he also tries to dodge you leftwise, and then u try the right, and he ALSO tries the right, and so on and so on...
it's so ridiculous.

I will vigorously scrub any spot they touch raw if they touch me. They just make me feel so sick. It's really bad.

mustard IS disgusting. blech

I'm scared of open doors, They have be always closed, even better if they're locked and i'm scared of cross the bridge.

[Kinky_Turtle]

Okay, so I have many strange-ish fears and I'll do my best to list them all here:

Wide, open spaces. They fucking terrify me. For a long time I thought this was agoraphobia but that's more a fear of being in a situation where you can't escape or being around people; thusly people who suffer from it don't go outside very often. That's not what I have, I don't leave my house cause I'm lazy, not cause I'm afraid. No, wide open spaces freak me the fuck out, it's like the opposite of claustrophobia. If there's a scene in a movie and there's like a wide field, or (God forfuckingbid) the Australian outback I start panicking and freaking out. I feel like I'd be too exposed in wide open spaces and it scares me. Give me a tiny little closet or a cluttered room and I feel safe.

Really deep water. Probably goes hand in hand with wide open spaces, seeing as the ocean is like the widest, most open space on the planet. But it terrifies me to think of all the murky shadowed things that could be lurking down there. And my obsession with cryptozoology does nothing to appease these fears. It was so bad when I was younger that if I were playing a video game and there was a part where the character had to go in water, I couldn't do it, I'd have to get someone else to play that part for me, haha.

Windows. Or more specifically, windows with no curtains/blinds. I have this insane fear that I'm going to look through a window and see someone/something that isn't supposed to be there. And along with this fear, comes another that is kind of related to it. I can't stand being in a room with an open door if I can see a window in another room through that door. I just can't do it, haha.

Corridors and hallways, especially wide ones. I'm afraid that I'm going to turn to start going down a hallway and see someone/something standing there that, again, shouldn't be there (I blame my sister for that; she forced me to watch, among other horror movies, The Shining when I was very young. God damn creepy twins.)

Someone (who isn't supposed to be there) standing in the middle of a room staring at me when I enter it.

Bathrooms. I hate them, really I do. And shower curtains, I hate them. But not as much as I hate glass shower doors; I can't take a shower in a shower that has one of those.

And one of my more I guess, normal fears is being controlled. I can't handle the thought of someone having control of me.

So yeah, I think that's enough. That's all I can think of for now. ^.^

[ratsforcandy]

When I put in a new light bulb I always get nervous that when I turn it on, it's going to pop, haha. It's not an extreme fear, but I always think it when I put in a new bulb.

[serafinesteppenwolf]

I was terrified of elevators when I was younger. I walked up l15 flights of stairs in a hotel once because I didn't want to ride the elevator. Not only was I petrified of them falling, but I saw someone get caught in the doors once and that traumatized me. I forced myself to get over that fear but just the other night I watched some movie about evil elevators on the sci-fi channel and I feel re-traumatized, haha.

My weirdest phobia is definitely monkeys. I am so afraid of monkeys, and I have no idea why. I never had a bad experiance or anything; I just hate them. They're so almost human-like but yet not human and it freaks me out. I can't even stand people dressed up like monkeys (my art teacher did this once and I almost passed out, especially when he started chasing kids around... yeah, he got fired.)

[Pink Cigarette]

--> glass elevators that face the outdoors. they're just frightening.

--> needles. if you hear some whimpering from the back of the doctors office and think it's a little kid getting a shot, think again.

--> the ocean, but just swimming in it. if I'm on a boat, I'm fine. I just don't like being in it myself unless very close to the shore.

[justinfire]

When I put in a new light bulb I always get nervous that when I turn it on, it's going to pop, haha. It's not an extreme fear, but I always think it when I put in a new bulb.

i get scared like that, too. and when i air up a tire, too. i always think they're just gonna explode.
i look away when i do either of those things.

[Indja]

Balloons. Hate them. Just remembered cos this dickhead at school chased me round with one yesterday.

[justinfire]

Balloons. Hate them. Just remembered cos this dickhead at school chased me round with one yesterday.

i saw a show once where a women was scared of balloons and they forced her deal with it.

[Golly Mina!]

I don't think this is a strange fear, but I HATE SPIDERS!

[Aillecks]

Balloons. Hate them. Just remembered cos this dickhead at school chased me round with one yesterday.

YES. i hate those fuckers.

I hate when people pop balloons! Ugh.

I don't think this is a strange fear, but I HATE SPIDERS!

And yes, spiders.. *shudder*

[Golly Mina!]

I don't think this is a strange fear, but I HATE SPIDERS!

And yes, spiders.. *shudder*

I remembered because I found one in my room oh dear God. Luckily, my boyfriend was there and he killed the fucker. Still, I was so scared, I think I cried a little

[Emilly]

Vaseline. If it gets on my skin I'll just scream, it makes me feel really really ill.

Daft I know, you have no idea how many different vaseline-related jokes people have come up with over the years

[Ms]

Balloons. Hate them. Just remembered cos this dickhead at school chased me round with one yesterday.

Me too. People are embarrassed going out with me in public in case I try and run away from balloons.

I'm scared of toasters. Being in space and being in an air lock and being ejected without a suit (like in Event Horizon). That my town is secretly Silent Hill. Something piercing my eyeball. Someone piercing my throat with a needle. I can't stand to be in the same room as beetles or stick insects. People touching my stuff.

For a long time, to the point where I had to get medication for it, I was terrified that I would walk down a street and people would rape and beat me. I had trouble leaving the house because of it. I'm better now, but I'm still terrified that everyone is watching me.

My other major one, and I can't tell if this is an obsessive compulsive trait I have or a fear, but I have to check my bag to make sure I haven't dropped or lost anything. I've been doing this for as long as I can remember. I used to check my back four times before I left my house and a billion times over the course of a day. If I can't check it, I feel sick and get really really upset.

That's all I can think of right now.

[CookieJar]

I'm scared of open doors. I always close them.

[Andy Pants]

I'm scared of open doors. I always close them.

Metaphor much?

[CookieJar]

No, not at all. I'm scared when some doors are open. I mean, all the doors, car doors(which have to be locked), cupboard doors and so one.

[Five]

I am terrified of Abraham Lincoln. I know. I can't look at a picture of him without wanting to scream and run away. Something about his face terrifies the hell out of me.

[Strange_Jane]

I have a completely irrational fear of roaches...i freak out completely!! scream, raid, heart rate excererates, run away.... I get itchy and have a hard time getting to sleep if i see one at night

[colordeaf]

The very thought of putting my nails on a chalk board is repugnant beyond compare. That and the clanking of change. I love the song Slide, but I hate hate hate that it uses the word "pennies" and the phrase "shakes change in his pocket". Does anyone have any alternative words? I use the "tugs at his watchchain" line from the demo version and "shrapnel" (but how does that explode?).

[Alyss]

Spiders, I guess. Not as much as I used to. Used to hate roaches as well, but I got used to them in India because the flat was full of em.

[the astronaut]

I can't stand on drains in bare feet. I think something's going to... I dunno. Crawl out and bury into my feet. I'm paranoid

[Alyss]

That's not irrantional, that's a dead sensible feat. There's crocodiles down there after all, and rats, and pigeons.

[Pliwood180]

I don't know that this counts as a "fear", but when I hear that someone around me feels really sick or left to go home because they were sick, I freak out. I wash my hands a ton, and sometimes I even feel like I'm sick just hearing about it. I hate it.

Also, ending up working in an office. That one's dead serious too. If I don't end up working with music, I'll go crazy.

[Ashleetalks_toastronauts]

Staircases with more than about 5 stairs.
If I stand at the top of a long staircase, I get this feeling like I need to just sit down and not move at all or I'll fall down all the stairs and not be able to stop.I freak out when I have to walk down huge staircases, especially if they're steep or have small steps.


I also hate crickets and maggots.

I wasn't able to go to the library for about 3 months because it terrified me. No idea why.
But I went yesterday...and felt too scared to leave. I started shaking and had to sit down. And I texted Sarah, freaking out.
It was weird.

Ah, you poor poppet! Come to my library, we'd do nothing to help but we could get you a brew ^.^

Your libraries have beer?!?!?!  Ours has a little coffee shop, but beer?  Maybe your library is better....

Agreed. Though I'm one for classic myself - all dripping in butter and lovely ^.^ With a mug of... um... what's the name of that drink again??


Also, I'm only going to respond to Mrs. Pickles' last post by announcing that I shall never dignify a post concerning Taco Bell with any serious kind of consideration.

[anotfrombamagrl]

I am afraid of the mental illness that runs in my family.
I have suffered alot of trauma growing up and this lead to some extremes in the teens. I'm 27 now. I wake up every morning and try to ask myself if my thoughts and feeling are rational. I question my actions, my likes, how I speak.  I'm terrified that my artistic, free spirited, streak of whimsy and the unsual is really mania. That one day I wont have control, and do things and say things that could endanger me and my family emotionally, phsyically, and mentally. My mother suffers from Bi-Polar. I was diagnosed bi-polar non order specific in my teens, but they say it was a stress related chemical imbalance and not genetic. Therapists tell me I'm fine. This terror makes me question everything. When I know I am ok.....when for years and years, I have raised a son, made art, had love, mantain my house, bills, I dont drink more than socially, no drugs, no life descions that have irreperably set me back, but a few that you just have to learn from. But still, all my family watches me like they are waiting for something to happen...something that says she has lost it.....and when everyone else questions something, I start to. I live in fear that my thoughts might not be my own.  

I live in fear of the fact that my family cant love me for me.....who isn't afraid to be human, isn't afraid to be embarressed (but I still get that way), who embraces life, and doesn't believe in wasting away in mundane existance. I dont want to do anything more amazing in life, than say I tasted it. I love easy, forgive easy, and can have a temper. I stick to what I believe in. I live with intergity, but I'm not always moral in the strict sense of the word. I believe in the power of being naked, I sit outside at night and dream, I learn everything I can (and this can seem like I jump meaninglessly from project to project.....but really, I invest the time and effort, I take it with me as mine, and I carry it, who knows where these strange hobbies will take me, and they make me fullfilled) I dont blow money and am actuallly over shrewd with finances. If I wasn't so broke, maybe I'd have more. I've been to college. I live art and music and creation. I have a love affair with other humans. Nothing is so beautiful in life as the power of people on each other and the power to connect and support and thrive through companionship alone. My child is strong, respectful, artistic, unafraid of himself, respectful, articulate, and provoking....he is six.

I've been okay since 19. Not got it together....thats when you should be dead really, when you figure it all out, cause what is left?

So why, cant my father, step mother, mother, 6 brother and sisters, countless aunts and uncles just except me. I feel like half the questioning I do, is because they question my common sense. So I question my common sense. I'm scared they will never love me as me, and keep seeking to correct this thing that scares or threatens them so. And ten years later, I'm scared I dont know me.....

I'm also convinced I will die via fiery car crash trapped in twisted metal.....this is irrational, possible, but jeez can I freak myself out with some of the traffic out here in So Cal


Anywho. Never actually took the time to write out these thoughts before. There is so much more to it, but I cant find the words in the right way. I hope this made sense......

1.  Indja dear, go to google/image search, enter the search parameter "brew", click [search images]
    Also, I quite like tea.  I like real tea, like for example PG Tips, or Bewley's Clipper Gold, as well as weird
    flavoured concoctions like "Lady Grey" (Oh, and we have this lovely shoppe here, run by a French lady oddly enough, which sells a hundred different varieties of wonderful...)
    Also, if you pour the cream into the cup, then add tea, the cream won't curdle... 
    (...according to a friend who so adulterates his tea.)

2.  Mrs. P, I knew there was something Above Average about you; I should've realized it was Virginia ancestry.  





I think I'll make scones tomorrow....

[GalacticSimian]

I feel like my fears are kind of rational, but everyone else seems to think they're wierd.
All my friends have fears of frogs/snakes/mice/moth etc. I'm not really afraid of any of these — indeed I think they're beautiful. HOWEVER

I have a couple of fears of my own:
Firstly I have long had this fear of parasites. Just the idea of any kind of parasite living inside me (bacteria / viruses excepted, I can get over that) is just totally repulsive and horrible. This fear sort of extended itself to a fear of worms and wormlike things in general. (Leeches too) I nearly threw up in the middle of a museum once because they had tapeworms in jars. =| I'm not too flash hot on centipedes either (watching King Kong certainly didn't help, especially that scene where she falls down the big ravine and there are giant maggots/centipedes/etc. I almost died in the cinema)

Anyway, my other fear is of water, which I suppose it a pretty strange fear since it's like, most of our planet (and most of my body). But yeah, even when I was a little kid, I refused to put my head under water. I'd always take baths instead of showers and Mum would have to forcibly wash my hair. XD. Needless to say swimming lessons weren't fun for me either. I kind of got over it but I still really don't enjoy swimming, and if I have to dive, or even put my head underwater I feel out of breath and like I'm drowning.

Oh yeah, and my third fear (kind of linked to the second) is crocodiles. I live in the tropics and there are honest to god, three metre crocodiles in ALL the rivers here. Even if I go swimming in a pool, or in somewhere else (like in Europe), if I can't see the bottom of the water, I get SO SCARED that something's going to come up and drag me under. Once, I was walking over a footbridge when it was flooding and the water was right up under the bridge. I was so terrified that some massive THING was going to jump up and like, devour the whole bridge underneath me. (Watching "LAKE PLACID" was a terrible, terrible idea.)

I'm weird I know.

[Tiervexx]

My worst fear is being eaten by some sea creature while I am in water that I can't see through very well.

My other fear is dying alone/that something terrible will happen to my friends.

Other than those I'm pretty solid.

Cee, PG Tips is crap - drink Twinings Every Day blend. Or if you're in the North, Yorkshire tea which is blended especially for hard water. GO THE NORTH!

And the interwebz is full of lies, and some of these lies lie in Google images.

No, it's a brand of tea. Foo'. Irish Breakfast?? What's that?

Mmm. My dad just brought me a BREW. Unfortunately, he tends to stir the tea when he's waiting for it to brew, which releases the tannins that make it taste kinda harsh. And he squeezes the teabag after, which has the same effect.

Still, if anyone's bringing me a cup of tea, I'm not gonna complain ^.^

[CeeGBee]

No, it's a brand of tea. Foo'.

I shall look for it in my local Brit-foods shoppe (Yes, there is one.)

Irish Breakfast?? What's that?

Black tea that, unlike many black teas, is actually black when finished brewing...  as in opaque.

Quite good when you need a morning jolt, but don't like coffee.

Still, if anyone's bringing me a cup of tea, I'm not gonna complain ^.^

I'll pop in just as soon as I can afford to travel that far.

I wish we had an American food shop! Oooh, no, wait, it'd be a STORE, right? xD Then I could buy Hershey bars and weird Reeses shit and milk duds, whatever the fuck they are, and... um... well, you know. American shit. LUCKY CHARMS!!!

Irish tea sounds nice. I'll try and find some.

And as for you popping in to make me a brew, feel free - I'm at work tonight, but I'm free for the rest of the week until I go to Oxford on Sunday. Though if you're coming over to England anyway, you may as well fork out a bit extra and come to Oxford - the place is full of bloody yanks, you'll fit right in.

[The Angel Raliel]

im scared of fat. you know the fat on meat? UGH!! eeew. i hate it. especially pork.  if i see it i cut it off, if i touch it i shake and go all funny. its yucky.

They become zombie-like because theyre tripping out and want to enjoy the trip while it lasts. Nothing to be afraid of. They cant hurt you when they are in their own little world. Unless of course they were on acid and thought you were a dinosaur trying to murder them then you should run away.

my brother can't handle the dark. so he leaves the light on, undimmed, and music on, and i'm amazed that he can get to sleep at all.

doctor who. 2 doctor who episodes freaked me out; once, where they were in this storage room filled with mannequins, who promptly came alive and had red eyes. i really hate mannequins because of that. another episode, where there was this dude who hid under a girl's bed, and he was a robot that ticked (made the sound of a clock). he was going to kill the girl. he broke the other clock in the room, so the doctor could hear the ticking, but it came from under the bed and not the clock. i now hate having the sound of only a clock and nothing else in my room at night, especially when it's dark. creepy.

[Cadosynn]

One time, when we first moved into this house, I woke up in the middle of the night. I wanted a glass of water, but this doll from McDonald's was on the floor and I was convinced that it was a moving piece of dog poop. So I crawled to the end of my bed, climbed on the dresser, turned the light on, jumped into the hall, and took off running for my parents' room. I still freak out when it gets dark. Not because it's dark, but...

I'm also scared of the basement.

[CeeGBee]

I'm also scared of the basement.

Well that's only sensible.  Check any horror movie, episode of Ghost Hunters or whatever...

Interviewer: "...and where did the killer chop up his victims and make sausages?"

I'm fine while I'm down there, but I start to panic as I go up the stairs. Something about a lion...

I had a dream someone stabbed me in the chest with a needle to jump start my heart even though I was perfectly fine. Then I fell in love with a girl. My heart stopped as she told me she loved me. I woke up with the sweats and a pain in my chest.

I'm scared of this actually coming true. Maybe.
I am also very scared of dreams that are so realfuckinglistic.

Also Beanie Babies. Fuck those things.

umm, i get really scared when i see people taking drugs and becoming zombie-like. i roll myself up in a ball and cry. and dont talk for hours.

They become zombie-like because theyre tripping out and want to enjoy the trip while it lasts. Nothing to be afraid of. They cant hurt you when they are in their own little world. Unless of course they were on acid and thought you were a dinosaur trying to murder them then you should run away.

yeahh I know why they do it but I just hate seeing what people do to themselves. It's sad. And I hate seeing them inject stuff, cause I'
