I think I am afraid of unusual fears. There are only five things in the world I am afraid of. If anything I'm a pretty brave person. I'm not afraid of death, standing in front of large crowds, or the usual things. I might just be stupid, I dunno. I was a dumb kid who got hurt a lot, so pain isn't a huge concern of me. Even surgery I don't mind. I had brain surgery and I wasn't concerned about it until I got into the operating room, but by then they inject you with tranquilizers so you don't freak out and try to run away. xD It was such a nice feeling. They could've cut off my arm and I wouldn't've minded.

BUT these are the things I AM afraid of:

One: walking into the bathroom only to find out I walked into the wrong one and I have all these guys staring at me.

I'm terrified of it. When I use a bathroom in public I stare at the sign for a few minutes, making sure it's the right one.

Two: Bears getting me. I almost got attacked by a bear when I was camping in Sequoia national park in California. Let's just say there were bear scratches on the car by the end of the night. e_e

Three: Somehow getting into deep water. One time I was snorkeling at Catalina Island off the coast of California, looking at these cute little red and orange fishies. The water was like six feet, a fine amount of water to be in. But then a current or wave or something pulled me out into the deep water. They have this huge drop off, from shallow to at least sixty feet of water. In that water are these huuuuuuuuuge kelp things that stretch up from the very bottom. Once I was out there I imaged this giant sea monster getting me.

I'm not afraid of sharks, no, those are fine. I can punch them in the eye and they'll go away, but unknown sea monsters swimming up from the unknown depths? No, no, no. No! DX Noooo!

Four: Bigfoot. I don't care if people tell me he's not real, there is a CHANCE he's out there. You never know, they didn't officially recognize mountain gorillas as real until like 1902. K, he's usually in Washington, so I'm never going into the forests of there. xD If I do he'll find me.

Five: Being in the bathroom when someone breaks into my house. What if I'm on the toilet and someone breaks in? Hope the pants I have on have my cellphone in my pocket? That's why I always lock the door, even if no one is home.


So, what are you afraid of? Dieing? Getting a horrible disfiguring disease? Burning alive? Spiders?

I'm afraid of Spiders, Heights, Small Spaces, Dying, Being Burnt Alive, Going Anywhere On My Own(im shy), Getting Some Desease, My Parents Dying(i'll never be ready to loss them and i think if either of 'em died i'd end up in some sort of home)

Water. Just being in water, period. I cannot swim (AGH. I don't really see a need for it, though), and I am terrified of drowning. When I was little, I slipped off the dropoff in my friend's pool, and the image is still in my head of looking up at the water... I dunno, I can't explain it, but I'm traumatized from that moment.

Wrist cuts. Oh lord, if anyone so much as touches my wrist, I will punch them in the face. I hear about the whole 'emo' shit, and it just gets in my head. I'm terrified of being cut on my wrists. Just typing it now... UGGGHHH... I shiver. >.>

Flip Flops and Spagghetti Straps. I like to keep myself covered up. I don't like wearing flip flops because they show my feet. Plus, I just feel like they're going to snap in half and I'll be left without shoes all day.

@AcidDrop- Heights I can understand. I don't like some heights. The idea of breaking my spine is not a fun one.

@Dorkfish- (love your user name, by the way. x) Do you like corn dogs? xD ) D: I'm sorry you fell in a pool! You're missing out, I love the water. The flip flops and spaghetti straps I can see too, because I like keeping myself covered as well. e.e

My worst fears would be.
Losing my most loved one. (Most important[I love you Sundey])

Going insane: Insanity can be scary, violent or just different. But if I went insane then I wouldn't be me. yet I would be me, but not the me I was. I don't like that idea at all.

Going brain dead: Brain dead... This is a pretty big fear for me since who you are, how you act, what you know, how you think, they all connect to your brain. And that me would simply vanish and I'd be a husk of what I once was if I was brain dead.

Nothingness: (I believe in god and heaven by the way)

The simple end of my existence upon death. Your life now, here being all there really ever was .That last breathe you released was your end. Your awareness nonexistent because you are nonexistent. You simply stopped being one day.

Imagine for me closing your eyes and submerging into darkness. Become nothing but that darkness then lose yourself to that darkness and let yourself vanish entirely.

You cannot think because you have stopped being, so let that go.

You cannot talk, laugh, or smile because these parts of you are six feet under.

You are not aware you could ever do these things in the first place.

You are not aware because you cannot be aware without existing, and that has ceased.

These are a few of my fears.

I'd like to clarify That I do not fear death.
Nothingness at the end of your life, and death are totally different.

@[email protected] Yeah, nothingness would suck. I believe in heaven and all that, so the idea of nothingness... doesn't sound fun at all.

Insanity, well. I think you're more afraid of loosing your memories. It's a very frustrating process, that's why Alzheimer patients go through that very angry phase.

I believe that after death, you regain all your memories and go into a state of perfection. You can't hang around in the eternities not knowing who you were in life, is what I think. ><

My worst fears are:

Getting Cancer or any other Disfiguring Disease: I once hyperventilated just because I thought about cancer. And I don't like the way I look right now already. So, I would not want to be disfigured.

Stage: I'm fine with being in front of large groups, and saying my own thing, but when it's a line that I have to say, or a song I have to sing, or a song I have to play, I shake like crazy. I can give a speech, as long as no one else has ever heard it before. Then, I can ad-lib like crazy. And it's not that I can't memorize things, I'm pretty good at memorizing things. Stage just scares me.

Being alone for the rest of my life: I want a guy. I will not be a cat lady. 'Nuff said.

Not having my life in order when I need it: I'm really...uh...I'm one the people who...I'm one of the really good students who are supposed to do amazing things in life. But right now, I'm freaking out because I don't know what I want to do when I graduate, I don't know what I want my major in college to be, I don't even know what I want my senior project to be.

Death: Now, I don't necessarily fear dying, or anything like that, but what I do fear is that I'll fight with someone I love, and then they'll die. Or I'll be mad so I'll say I hate them and they die. Or I just don't tell them I love them, and then they die. So, I always have to make sure I tell my mom I love her before I leave for school. The other day, I didn't, and I was freaking out all day. But really, I'm fine with dying myself.

I do alot of freaking out.

EDIT:
Needles: I can sit there and get a shot, but afterwards, no matter what, I start crying because needles scare the crap out of me. It especially sucked when I had to get surgery on my mouth done, and they had to give me shots in teh mouth and drill and cut in my mouth and wouldn't let my mom stay with me.

I deleted the part where I feared losing my mind to make it shorter. That was where I was gonna put in losing my memories and who I was.

I really do fear being something that I don't feel I am through insanity.

Me and my husband watched a show on the tv where there was this lady who was a forest ranger type deal and she was keeping track on this guy who was trapping illegally and then the guy got upset with her and went after her. He was trying to get into her cabin and then she heard him screaming and begging for help. When she went outside to find him she saw him hanging in a tree bloody and torn apart. They think it was big foot that did it. :o scary.
Anywho, I am scared of pretty normal things.
Being cut open
Being alone in big crowds
Being alone in general, I have nightmares were I am alone in white nothingness sometimes and wake up feeling like I didn't get any sleep
Being upside down
Eating a spider, I've been told they might go into your mouth while you sleep... and we have Godzilla spiders in the cellar.
The telephone. I cower at the thought of having to call someone or someone calling me. <3

One of my greatest fears is falling. I can do heights in a plane or roller coaster, but if I'm not secure or know that I might fall, I'm freaking out.

LOL Larry, you have the weirdest and funniest fear. XD I am dying at the washroom one, BOTH of them because honestly, i fear the same. Actually the first one happened to me. I walked into the wrong bathroom that one time, but luckily no one was there to surprise me... XD
and also, when someone breaks in and im in the washroom with my pants down OR naked. D; no.... i always always lock my door. and deep ends, lol lets not go there. id die if i go near it. i do not know how to swim. i have a feeling that id die drowning. -shrugs-
but being afraid of bigfoot, lols thats funny, no offense. it makes sense and all but there might be a chance of it not existing at all.
now as my worst fears are mostly emotional related like:

-losing anyone i love like any of my family or friends
-being alone for the rest of my life
-seeing babies or children die
-seeing anyone die in pain
-dying alone. D;
-causing someone to die or any sort of pain
-DEATH, i may be still afraid of death because i dont feel like ive lived my life or told anyone i love i love them or asked people i hurt for forgiveness. i guess im afraid to die because of the pain i will cause my parents, or to have the thought of never seeing anyone i love. im afraid to not exist anymore. -spazz-

uhhh other than those.... >.>;

-i am afraid to fall on the train tracks whenever i am waiting for the train
-i am afraid to get stuck somewhere dark and i am alone.

and a lot mooorrreee.... yeah. 8D

*ahem* SLIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIPPPPPPPP

Anyway, I've got two major fears.

1. Failing. I can't bare failing myself, or other people. It's so painful, and I end up getting uber depressed.

2. Nightclubs. It's the people... and the lights... and the sound... and the booze... and the people... and the sound... and the lights... and people... Did I mention the people?

Hm, since I am a bit on laziness right now to do any homework, I will list a few.

1) A future that is just down the hole. I am not a perfect student. I no longer get As like I did last year and I suck at science and math. But, I fear that this will be my downfall. I will never have that pretty interior designer duplex I ever wanted. I will never have pretty clothings and the nicest car. Etc, etc. I mean normal is okay but I want the pretty life. Yes, I am extremely materialistic so just know that I won't have that scares me.

2) The dark. Believe or not, whenever I have to go downstairs or back upstairs in the middle of the night, I pretend I'm the angel of light and no dark creature can get me so I won't be too freaked out. ._.; Too many horror movies...

3) Dying young. So many things to do in life and so little time to do it. If I die I find that quite sad...

That's all I can think of at the moment. >< And other common ones like drowning and heights...

Fish: I'm afraid of fish, even though I'm at the pond whenever I go to the park. (I live next to one tho, so it's alot) And with that I'm allergic to them.
Friendly People: Sorry, I has mental problemoes. You shouldv'e seen me at the park the other day, a girl just a bit younger than me walks up and says "Hi what's your name?" and I ran all the way to my house, cuz I didn't want her to find me.
States around the Gulf of Mexico: I really can't expain this one but... yeah.

@larry the snail: yeah... i went up the eiffle tower once(i can't spell but that famous tower in france xD) i totally freaked out, i was so scared that i would fall over the edge that i had to stand in the middle!

My fears would have to be...........

the best character in a book ending that is my worst fear, though sadly it happens alot.

Staying up past ten-ish I don't know why, but ever since I turned (i think it was nine...) I just couldn't fall asleep without me knowing that someone else was awake in the house. It seems to be going away though.

Five: Being in the bathroom when someone breaks into my house. What if I'm on the toilet and someone breaks in? Hope the pants I have on have my cellphone in my pocket? That's why I always lock the door, even if no one is home.

Same. :ninja:
I'm not really afraid of breaking and entering...s? Because my dad has a rifle in his room, I have some air soft guns, and some assassins knives. (They're like curled)
But one of my fears is being killed in my sleep.

Five: Being in the bathroom when someone breaks into my house. What if I'm on the toilet and someone breaks in? Hope the pants I have on have my cellphone in my pocket? That's why I always lock the door, even if no one is home.

Similar
I have the psycho fear. I do not wanna be killed in the shower. It always freaks me out when I shower at night, so now I only shower in the morning. Hopefully Norman Bates likes to sleep late.

Going potty and having other people hear ><

Losing Seph (my boyfriend)

Or a bridge collapsing while I'm on it

I'm afraid of worst case scenario
Makes no sense to most people, but I can usually always get out of a bad situation. Its when there is no possible way to get out of a terrible horrible situation where I will really freak out. So far, I think its only happened once haha

Spiders: I am actually terrified, in college part of my course is handling the animals in the college. I didn't have to hold the tarantula, but just the thought of it being in the room sent me crying and shaking as far as i could get away from it against a wall. I cry, shake, start hyperventilating, throw up, and i lose the power to speak.

Storms: Again, another thing that leaves me shaking and crying. I have to hold on to someone tightly otherwise i actually break down badly.

Cars & roads: Not really that big of a fear but if i'm either getting in a car and traveling, or crossing a road, i tend to visualize my own death.

The dark downstairs in my house: When the downstairs is all "shut down" and everyone's gone to bed, and i need to go down, i start panicking. I cant turn my back on anything... and normally this is when my cat jumps out.

Older fears?: I used to be afraid of the toilet. xD I used to think a croc' would come up and bite my butt. When i sat on the toilet, i constantly looked DOWN the toilet to check nothing was there... and when i flushed, i ran as soon as i clicked the flushy-thing. xD

Seph- I wouldn't worry about anything like that until you're very old.

Sforzando- x_X A lot of people don't like needles. I can't... understand it. Is it the pain they cause of something?

pchanpiggy- I have someone I know named Pchan! x)
See, that was Bigfoot. e.e He's out there.
Oh, and telephone! xD I'm kinda that way too, but only when it's ringing and I'm waiting for someone to pick up. I have a mini panic attack inside me. I always hope the person I'm calling picks up and not someone else.

Clorissa- When you were little, on the playground things at like Mcdonalds and stuff, were you afraid of the rope tunnels? The tunnel part that had those squares and stuff. I was TERRIFIED of those. @[email protected] It was too high and it wasn't stable.

Nesseh- xP I'm glad someone else shares my fears.

Marionette- ;D Hey darling. I don't like nightclubs either for the same reasons. Any strong smell like alcohol or sweat hurts my head.

Sadistix- x_x Just remember that if you think you're going to fail, you are going to fail. If you tell yourself you won't, you eventually won't. Stay positive always helps. I used to be a straight A student, but recently I've been praying for a C. A few years ago that would've seriously depressed me, but now... I'm grateful for it. xD

Lethargic- e.e I don't like those states either. I hate the south.
Aw, but friendly people are nice! D: Do you know why you're afraid of them, or is it just one of those things?

Aciddrop- Lucky, I've never been there. >< I heard France smells though.

silverkitty- You'd love living with me, then. XD I can't fall asleep before like 11.

Ninja- @[email protected] I wouldn't like guns in the house, but I can understand why you have them. I always figure that if someone breaks in I'll be able to lock myself in a room and call the police.

Lain- XD You always make me laugh.

Sundey- xP I used to be afraid of the first one too. I hated public restrooms.

Xethgnur- My worst case scenario would be being in the bathroom (after accidentally going into the men's restroom) when someone breaks in. I somehow run away to outside, and when I'm outside a bear tries to get me. I get mauled but run away, then Bigfoot comes and gets me. As I'm running away from him I come to the ocean and start to swim away. But he can swim so he comes after me and I get to deep water and a sea monsters comes up from the sea floors and eats me.

@[email protected]
I pray it never happens.

Romantiik- My neighbor has a tarantula. x.x
The toilet, I'm fearful of that happening too, but instead of a crocodile it'd be a giant snake. e.e It happens in Florida and stuff you know.

I dunno. Probably the dark. Being alone. Being a bad person.


And Bigfoot lives up here in B.C. We call him Sasquatch, though. 'Cause Canada is weird like that.

I have a couple of random fears, though none are irrational. I can place a rational reason to every single one of them. Though that goes to say, some are ridiculous. For example I have the age old fear of clowns. But not just any clown, any circus like clown. It cracks my friends up that I am a Juggalette and periodically to concerts and gatherings paint my face. However, I am scared of Circus like clowns because of the circus when I was a child. I was left alone at the ringling brothers circus for a moment while my aunt went to go get snacks. I freaked out and wandered off looking for her. The clowns at the circus make rounds, around to interact with the kids and one noticed I was looking around crying. Before I knew it he was in my face trying to ask me questions and grab my hand, the minute he reached out for my hand I freaked out.

Another one of my Fears is Raw Eggs. I don't fear the egg itself as I do the membrane. That clear translucent goo leaves this feeling on my skin I can't shake and it bothers me enough that when someone is doing like a egg tossing contest or something resembling I walk far far away. I can't handle that slimey stuff on my skin. I just cant, the feeling leaves me ill. It has to be a texture thing.

Terrified of vacuum cleaners.
Every time I see them I feel like it will suck me up and I will never escape.
e_e;

Terrified someone my be hiding behind the shower curtains, closet, under the bed, etc.
I always check no matter what.

&
I'm terrified of being outside at night.
Basically the fear of the dark.
