What is your worst nightmare?

AllForIt

Explaining what my worst nightmare is on boards.ie

Omackeral

Sitting in a bath full of baked beans while wearing a school jumper and biting the sleeve.

Mr.Crinklewood

Popeye the sailor man getting beaten up by Brutus whilst being in control of a yacht on which I'm a passenger.

The only other person on board willing to captain the yacht is Enya, however she is watching the Hot House Flowers and the gig goes on for hours

Thankfully the auto-navigation cuts in and we dock at a lovely Island

Wasps.

Being buried alive in anything, sand, snow, the earth.
Being in outer space, the thought of just endless space terrifies me. I feel the same way about the ocean, I'm okay with the beach because land is nearby. I'm not afraid of water or anything, it's just the thought of the endless space of the ocean. I also really hate really clear water, where you can see all the plants etc growing from, what looks to be, the bottom of a river. Because, again, the endless space just scares me.
Sharks, even though I have never encountered one in real life.

Bumping into someone I went to school with. The conversation generally goes like this.

"Ah man howya' doing. Are ya well?
"Ah long time no see. I'm grand yeah. How are you?
"Good yeah. How are you?
".....I'm grand........thanks. What's the story with you anyway?
"Ah not much just working away. You know yourself. What are ye up to these days?
"Ah not much just working way. Same as yourself. What are ye working at?
"Ah just a bit of I.T. What about yourself?
"Ah just a bit of media. How's things anyway?

CPTM

Waking up without being able to move. Staring at my girlfriend beside me wishing she could see my paralysed state, so that maybe she could shake me from the horrifying grips of sleep. But she doesn't see. I'm trapped there and I'm completely locked in. Heart racing and head feeling like it might explode. And forgetting my phone when I go to the toilet.

Loosing my child. Not sure id recover from that.

You were taught by your Mam?

Always write down where to you left them and you'll be fine.

I always look at the likes of Jamie Bolger and Sarah Payne's parents and wonder at how much strength it must have taken them just to get up in the morning. I don't know how I could keep going through that kind of grief.


Flippant (but still deadly serious answer) beehives or wasp nests. I have a deathly fear of malignant flying insects with stingers. *shudders*.

Never be hasty.

Happened my Mam about 35 years ago in Dunnes. They had security close the doors but 20 mins later no sign.


Turned out I was under a checkout that wasn't being used eating a block of margarine.

So, check there first.


Or the fridge aisle...near the butter....

I forgot to add, going to the hairdresser. The stupid "are you going out this weekend?", "any holidays planned?" chatter is my nightmare. I hate small talk.

Being left with no pain meds ..like now.

All the others have already happened in my life and I have coped. ...This one persists.

Some of my worst nightmares have already come to pass. You think you will never survive but you do. You think you will fall to pieces and life will never be the same and that's true but you do survive. These days it would be something happening to my dad or I'll health falling on us.

Being buried alive. Being alone in a room with a giant spider.

Having to wait a whole year for the final season of game of thrones ☹

Being diagnosed with dementia/alzheimers and spending the last 10 years of my life in a nursing home.....

Zero Point

Used to be an actual recurring dream from time to time -being in a head on collision with an artic before I learned to drive but I always managed to swerve in time so go me!

That's probably me you see sometimes being a cheeky driver jumping lanes on the motorway but try not to judge as it's just my dream resurfacing at opportune moments

I've lived it. My absolute worst nightmare was losing my parents, who also were all that was left of my family. Last year, in a space of 4 months, that is exactly what happened. Oh, and I got kicked out of my apartment, found myself with a significant amount of debt (that I could luckily get rid of) and came within an inch of losing my job as well. At times, it seemed that the dark times would never end, but rest assured they do. There's always a light at the end of the tunnel.

On the plus side, I'm far less scared of dying now than I was before all that kicked off.

Being curb stomped.

Serious stuff : children and/or husband dying.
house burning

Lighter stuff : having to dress up and go pretend at a garden party with lots of rich, posh and important people that I would need to impress for some reason.




Spiders on me, in my bed.

Dying of cancer. I could deal with the chemo/radiation/doctors etc but the end stages are horrific. I saw my mother go through it and it's not like in the movies where they hold your hand and tell you they love you. She wanted to die at home so the hospice pumped her full of platelets and arranged for it to happen.

The physical deterioration is rapid and brutal. She went from needing wheelchair assistance to use the toilet, to using a commode, to having a catheter in a couple of weeks. Each deterioration took away a part of who she was. Her final weekend was just awful. She couldn't speak or communicate with us and could only grunt and groan. What made it so awful was that we knew it was just her body failing and not her mind

She was one of 6 siblings and 4 of them have died from cancer, 3 within the same year and in their 60's. I've had nightmares about her death which were horrific and my biggest fear is that I'll end up like her - wasting away, knowing that I'm dying and I hate it.

The prospect of losing my mother was my greatest fear. She was a heavy smoker and as soon as I learned how to read, I became intensely preoccupied with the words "Smokers Die Younger" on cigarette packets and advertisements. I didn't know what cancer was, but I had very vivid nightmares about her dying from it. I remember one time, when I was around 9 or 10, crying myself to sleep because she had bronchitis and I had convinced myself that it was lung cancer. She did eventually die from lung cancer, but not until I was 30. Her illness and death were more peaceful than I had imagined, but the loss was and remains worse than any of my worst nightmares.

I don't really have any 'worst nightmare' scenarios anymore. Apart from paper-cuts in improbable places.

that story about you fearing your mother was going to die because of her smoking, would make a great anti smoking advert.
