ok now im sure some ppl have some ones they dont want to share, but everyones scared of something so cmon!!

i'll start with one.... cockroaches bleh i hate them!! especially the big ones with wings that can fly after you. in north qld they get so huge, there was one in my house that was about 10cm! icky

Candy_Cat31 Jul 2006, 2:01pm

yeah i'm no fan of them either :S

But... i have a fear or phobia of such but i freak out a bit when i hear screeching breaks.. makes me jump everytime. This is cause i was hit by a car 2.5years ago was the only sound i heard upon impact (other than smash and *thump*), so it tends to freak me out a little :S just a reactionary thing...

march E31 Jul 2006, 2:07pm

Growing old. i cant stand the thought of it. old people freak me out.

Dragoon31 Jul 2006, 2:07pm

yeah once you've been in an accident it would b scary! i was in one when i was 16, and still get edgy in cars sometimes if they dont feel very safe.

also dont like massive crowds much, but strangely feel safe in a club/at a rave! maybe cos im with like minded ppl!

yeah the thought of your body rotting away while you are still living and breathing doesn't appeal to me either

KandiRaver31 Jul 2006, 2:23pm

besides the normal fear of cockroaches, spiders and bugs in general...

i have a fear of large bodies of water (weird i know!) i refuse to go anywere near the ocean and i never go swimming... i'm not even that keen on spas.

i have a fear of fish/water mammals... trust me there is nothing scarier then going swiming with dolphins!

i have a fear of large animals... elephants, horses etc. i doubt i could ever ride a horse, and i had to have my photo taken with an elephant one time in Bali... i almost had a heartattack i was so petrified!

i never understood people's fear of dying, could you explain what you mean by that?

like do you have a fear of being murdered, or what it would do to people that you left behind, or do you have a fear that you will miss things or is it just a fear of no longer existing?

I'm not mocking you i just want to understand.

*hides toes from kirsty*

My fears...

SNAKES - even tho I lived with a 9foot carpet python for 2 years, they scare the shit out of me. Comes from being bought up on a farm i reckon.... we were bred to 'see a snake, kill the f***er' *shudders* also doesn't help that my $2.5k quarter horse was killed by a snake bite *cries* actually come to think of it, I'm not a fan of any reptile.

HEIGHTS - not a massive phobia, but a phobia all the same.

MY BACKYARD AT NIGHT & BEING HOME ALONE - with all of the bollocks happening around my place of late (Rob's car stolen on one occasion, our two back sheds being ransacked and them attempting to steal my car on another, then a stolen car being dumped and torched down the side street on another occasion - all within 4 weeks of each other) I'm absolutely pertrified of being home alone. One strange noise and I shit myself

as for the backyard, once the sun goes down, I refuse to go out there.

another huge fear of mine... outliving my son. That scares the hell out of me

I don't know really how to explain it..a while back I used to have panic attacks cause I was really sick and thought I was dying and ever since then it has scared me...I think also having a fair few mates die so young has made me realise I don't want that to happen to me aswell....

Yeah I know crappy explanation!!

Nah, that's cool... i kinda understand. My friend just died he was 23... and even tho i've been throught that, i'm not scared of dying at all. But i do "worry" about how it would affect those around me if i did.

.princess.r31 Jul 2006, 6:16pm

i am scared of being by myself, ad being kid napped. always feared when i was little that it was gonna happen.
Mice scare the absolute crap out of me, along with other creepy crawly little things. I also have a fear of spiders climbing into my mouth when im asleep.
Im scared of big trees, that there gonna fall on me or they just look scary.

incognitor31 Jul 2006, 7:15pm

im scared of flying insects... i know it sounds stupid... but bees and wasps terrify me,

flys dont... u can tie hairs around their necks and keep them as pets

but generally anything thats flying and an insect creaps me out big time

Sangr31 Jul 2006, 7:16pm

I'm scared of standing at the edge of a cliff.
I hate Magpies coz they swoop me...just me in particular but I really really want to pat one.
I hate the thought of losing my legs. I love dancing and walking EVERYWHERE...they're my life blood.

Dalliedogr31 Jul 2006, 7:46pm

DeLr31 Jul 2006, 11:24pm

legs....? hmmm its not a fear for me.. its close to a reality the way my knees are.

dying??? flat line n the operating table count??? been there done that...

flying insects??? only when they land on me

spiders , only when they are on me. had a white tail drop fromt eh roof one day about an inch long landed on teh colar of my shirt and crawled down onto my neck. since that day.... *shivers*

i love the ocean and surfing and sailing and skin diving even tho ive lost two mates to white pointers and nearly one to a bronze and have had a couple closer calls myself

My fears hmmmm i have never really thought what freaks the hell out of me i'm not real keen on spiders but i wouldn't say they feak me out or anything. I guess one of my fears would be hurting someone i care about or loosing someone i care about that would be horrible. One fear i have is not being able to help a good friend that might really need it at the time, i'm very protective of close friends and family. I really don't live in fear of much actually....... thats just me i suppose just happy and care free as long as i have my family and good friends which i do i can pretty much deal with anthing else

LadyKr1 Aug 2006, 12:38pm

Hmmm... my list isnt as long as it used to be- thankfully

Clowns- bring on MASSIVE panic attacks- i just start screaming like a crazy b*tch, dont know why
Cars/Driving- I hate being in cars, its only fairly recently ive been able to go in them without being sedated. i freak out when poeple are speeding, tailgating, not on their own side of the road or pretty much anything really. Im not as bad when im driving but i hate to drive with a passenger so whenever someone else is there i always make them drive & proceed to nearly die of stress in the passenger seat

Moths & Butterflies- im fine iwht spiders, snakes & rats but moths & butterflies freak me out to no end. if im in a room with a moth ill actuall panic to the point of passing out

Bunny Rabbit ears for tvs- weird but theres just something about them thats not right!!!
Being Home Alone at Night- im scared of getting raped, beaten or murdered or having someone hurt my dogs & me not beinng able to stop them

We live in a crappy neighbourhood & scott doesnt get home til about 10 so its a real problem

I've noticed alot of people have a fear of clowns! (i think there were to many childern watching Stephen King's It in the 80's!)

But i must admit i have a fear of Clowns too! not as bad, but i get sweaty palms and sometimes start to hyperventillate!

(i have a singlet top with "can't sleep ... clowns will kill me" written on it... so true for many of us!!)
