Do you have any real fears?

Do you have any real fears?

Spiders?
Clowns?
Heights?
Road signs?

I don't think I have any real fears apart from maybe women! (They are really scary)

I've a truely horrible and irrational fear of needles, particularly blood tests, or those things that they put in your arm while you're in hospital.

I actually go weak at the knees thinking about them.

I hate them. Truely hate them.

I've had to spend some time in hospital recently, and been in and out for tests etc and each time is like torture. I was in for a week and had the thing in my arm for the whole time (was nil-by-mouth in case I needed surgery) so they had me on fluids. I didn't move my arm for the whole week in case the thing fell out and they had to put it back in.

The nurses practically had to hold me down so the phelbotomist could take blood.

Surprisingly I'm okay with vaccines!!

The bits of roads that go under bridges...it's just freaky, it's supposed to be water.

Have a load of fears! Mainly afraid of heights, insects like spiders and wasps, falling/tripping, getting ill, whether people be talking about me behind my back, fear of what other people think of me, fear of the unknown! Fear taking risks sometimes but dont fear change I be scared but thrive on that fear. I Fear reptiles and some animals and some water creatures.

When I was 5 my dad thought it would be funny to hold me over o'connell bridge by the ankle and pretend to drop me. So the fear may stem from there.

This happened to me too only it was in Cork. What the hell were they thinking??

Dentists.
Had a really bad experience about 15 years ago, have only been back to the dentist once since then because I was in so much pain. And even still that dentist had trouble with me, I was hyperventilating and started shaking so much he could barely do the procedure. When he finished I became hysterical and he couldn't let me out of his surgery for about half an hour as I had to go through the waiting room and he didn't want his other patients seeing me:eek:.

He told me there and then that he wouldn't be able to treat me again, that I would have to go to a specialist dentist that would knock me out. I need to go again, but I keep putting it off.

I also cannot stand sponge foam. It's the feel of it, it makes me break out in a sweat and start hand wringing if it's near me and I have to touch it. I usually have to lift it with something.

Jellyfish, clowns, and my greatest and most stupid fear is of the dark. 26 years old and it's getting worse if anything!

Can't believe nobody has said it yet! Here goes....ehem:

'There is nothing to fear but fear itself'

Spiders when they creep up on you. Dont really mind them as long as I know where they are. Not good with heights either or small spaces.
Heights isnt an irrational fear though. Its there for a good reason.

DEFTLEFTHAND

Being buried alive. Iv had horrible nightmares about this happening over the last few nights.

I'm absolutely irrationally terrified of dogs......no matter how big or small they may be!!

I totally avoid going anywhere near parks or fields were anyone might happen to be walking their dog...I've occasionally crossed to the other side of a road rather than walk to close to one of them!!

Even thinking about them now has me in a sweat ha ha ha!!

Temptamperu

Im afraid of moths, wasps and rats. Or that someday scientist will combine the three too make a super animal that can hunt from the sky scratch your eyes out and sting you all at the same time.

In fairness though I'd say it was funny. Could be where Muichael Jackson got the idea to do it to his child!

Bears

Sharks

Tigers

Lions

There seems to be a theme here .. big feckin teeth to eat me!!

I was living in Canada and was out one night having a smoke, cos nobody in Canada smokes! A large bear strolled along the road about 10 feet away from me and I look at him/her, he/she looks at me ... I carry on smoking he/she carries on walking...

Only when I go back in the house and I realise that there was a bear on the road very near me does the fear hit me... didn't go outside for ages after. I would make my friend drive right to the door to pick me up.

A tiger would eat me and it would hurt a lot.

A lion would eat me and it would hurt a lot.

A shark would eat me and it would hurt a lot.

I'm afraid of big (or barking narky) dogs also.

Never had the pleasure.. thank god

Wasps, mice, people in big foam costumes like barney or the teletubbies, and ketchup. Ketchup really freaks me out and its EVERYWHERE! The smell, seeing other people eat it, even seeing the crusty bit people leave around the top of the bottle, holy god I hate it so much. Not too fond of flying either as my first flight had horrendous turbulence and the big fat guy beside me was hyperventilating and gripping the seat infront of him, I woke up from my nap and all I could see was him, I thought we were going down.

No, wasn't funny, espeacially when he pretended to drop me,

Bear in mind, 5 years old, upside down, looking down over water and an english prick going "whoah" "whoah" moving me closing to the liffey.

Da Shins Kelly

Really, really don't like people touching my shins (seriously), and I have a very irrational fear of breaking them or having them hit by some sort of blunt object. The idea of it makes my skin crawl, and I can't be in situations where there is a slight possibility of that happening (my shins being hit). I don't like people even touching my shins, really freaks me out.

I also don't like heights.

Wolfe Tone

I afraid that a moth will burrow its way into my ear while I'm asleep, thrash around the place waking me up, and necessitate a 4am visit to the hospital to have the fcuker removed (still alive and struggling) .... again
