Xtreme97 Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 Spiders +1. I hate them. I also have a fear of onions. Seems rather strange but I cannot stand the things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E1ticket5 Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 I'm freaked out by... 1.Fire Alarms (Can't foucus when I know there's a Fire Drill) 2.Spiders 3.Surgery (The idea of having someone cut into me freaks me out.) 4.Roller Coasters* (I'm trying to get over it. The scariest thing I've been on is ROAR at SFDK or Revolution at SFMM.) 5.Throwing Up (Why I'm afraid of roller coasters. I hate nausea, the stomach pains, and feeling like I can't breathe.) *I'm going to West Coast Bash, and I'm kinda freaked out by what's on for morning ERT. But, i'm sure i'll do fine.

galindoverhere Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 ^^ Don't worry I used to be a HUGE chicken on roller coasters also, but I got over it once I rode X2. I'll be at WCB also, so I'll see you there!! O.K. now back to my phobia... it's getting lost in the middle of nowhere! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MayTheGForceBeWithYou Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Used to have some ophidiaphobia after a run-in with a massive python when I was in South Africa in 2004. Being 11 years old getting bitten by a 12+ foot long snake was pure unfiltered terror. Can't believe I've pretty much gotten over the fear after going through something as traumatic as that.

The49er Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Dogs, SOPA, high-up seats in IMAX dome theaters, college, marriage, dying young, X2, and SEFK are a few examples. Oh, and airplanes, laser eye surgery, tanning beds... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imawesome1124 Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Even though I don't have a driver's lisence, being in the car at night in an unfamiliar place freaks me out. Even if my parents or whoever is driving knows the way around I still get uneasy. Actually, thanks to a bunch of night terrors I've had, driving in general makes me uneasy.

cal1br3tto Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 high-up seats in IMAX dome theaters I think the back row to offers the best seats in the house. I feel it maximizes the sensation of flying, though I can't be certain since I never bother with other rows! Then again, at my local theater you must exit to a high indoor skybridge, so sitting low wouldn't help in that regard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coasterkid124 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 I don't have anything that I'm afraid of. If anything startles me I'll attack it. That goes for people, animals, etc. I can't do haunted houses for that reason. I'm not afraid but if something scares me my first reaction is to throw a punch. I'm not too fond of elevators either. Again, I'm not afraid of them but I don't like how in the case of an emergency you can get stuck in them. I'd rather take the stairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerstlaueringvar Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Mantis(pun intended) Pretty much all kinds of insects especially cockroaches. Spiders and Scorpions are my nightmares too. Japanese creepy horror movies scare me much more than the Hollywood ones with bloody scenes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike541x Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 I think my biggest fear is being buried alive. Even with new technology and medicines, I still fear of waking up after I've been put to rest. Maybe I'll just get cremated so there's no possible way of it ever happening. Heights used to be a major fear of mine but I feel like I'm starting to get over it. They never bothered me on roller coasters(obviously), but in certain situations they freaked me out. Hell, the first time I went on the Eiffel Tower at Kings Dominion, I was terrified to even stand near the rails to look out. I stayed as close as I could to the center as much as possible. Now a days heights don't bother me as much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerstlaueringvar Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 I'm not afraid of height at all but when I stand at the edge of somewhere really high like the top of a skyscraper or a cliff, I always feel like some magic force is trying to pull me towards the edge. It feels so strange that now I'm trying to stay away from anywhere high if there's no safety device. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imawesome1124 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 My current biggest fear is having a child of mine die. That's just the most unthinkable tragedy possible, and it doesn't seem like something anyone can ever recover from. I know it's statistically almost impossible to happen to me, but accidents can happen. I would not be able to live if that were to happen to me. Honestly, even though I really really want to have a kid, this fear is giving me reservations about it just in the slim chance it could happen.

gisco Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Mild Claustrophobia. I got stuck earlier this year in a small service elevator with three other guys on the Scandi trip. I was experiencing some anxiety but kept it together. Only stuck about 10 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcjp Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Mantis(pun intended) Pretty much all kinds of insects especially cockroaches. Spiders and Scorpions are my nightmares too. Japanese creepy horror movies scare me much more than the Hollywood ones with bloody scenes. I would say that some insects (especially spiders) are my only mild phobias. It's always interesting when I spot a spider with my grandfather next to me as I immediately want to kill it but he doesn't (and doesn't when I do it at all).

boldikus Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Also mild claustrophobia here and then a really random and unreasonable fear of being poked in the eye by tree branches LOL. Anyone Ive told makes fun of me, I don't know where it comes from but its a very real (albeit weird and funny) phobia I've always had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcjp Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 ^That actually happened to me a few weeks ago. I really don't remember how but I got pocked in the eye by some random tree branch. I was lucky as it was fairly soft (for a tree branch) and it hit me not in the center of the eye but more to the side. Still, it was pretty nasty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nrthwnd Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Death by lava. Seriously. Or by an earthquake, too. Fearful of either. And Vancouver is (apparently) way overdue for a major earthquake, we keep being told, year after year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
