| | | Do you have a phobia of anything?
Do you hate being in lifts? Are you scared of sheep? Do you hate school?
Share your phobias here. Whether its stupid or serious - we wanna here it.
Anyway to get us started off - i have a huge fear of a weird cactus in one of the classrooms at school (m1 for anyone who goes to shs). Well just to fill you in, it has huge leaves, kills you if you touch it and is covered in fibrous dots. It looks disgusting and makes me feel repulsively sick.
Here are some pics of some other cacti that make me feel sick.
Anway, feel free to post about your phobia. Oh and if anyone knows the name of my sort of phobia please tell me. |

I have an unreasonble fear of spiders(If I see one I start crying and shaking and hyperventilating and then I probably wont go into that room for like 2 day afterwards)... thats my most normal fear though
my other more strange fears are... well... strange.
I have a fear of being in an Elevator with more than one stranger... If I'm in one with one stranger and It stops before my floor and another stranger gets in I will seriously get off on that floor and look for stairs until I find them and go that way.
I have a fear of being murdered out of hatred... I mean wrong place wrong time I'm okay with. Like if I just get caught in crossfire thats totally cool but of some one hates me enough to plan/try to kill me that really scare me which is why I tend to be super nice to everyone.
My favourite one of my weird fear is my fear of stairs with gaps in them. Im not afraid of hights or anything but I am deathly afraid of the stair that have gaps in them.. looking at them makes me feel sick and if you try to get me to go up them you might as well just tell me to go home because its not going to happen.
Oh and I dont like Tapioca its gross and kinda creeps me out when I look at it

Hogwarts RPG Name: Rishi Kapoor First Year | Film Addict! | ♥ Suraj Sharma ♥| TIGRESS! EXTREME arachniphobic. Actually, I have a fear of all insects and such that's really serious. I can't even kill them because I'm afraid it's either going to jump on me, or send an army of insects to attack me, no joke. I also have a fear of being in the dark with my dad's radio station on which talks of political topics and such. Really scary.....I keep thinking aliens are coming after me. Haha |

I fear spiders, they make my heart pound, and my body shudder. No matter how big or small they are, I can't go near them.
I also have a huge fear of heights, which I would love to overcome as it stops me from doing a lot of things I'd love to do. Not fun! Silly phobias!

I'm afraid of heights. Sometimes I'm not but when it comes to bridges or an elevator, I start to squirm and get nervous.
I DO NOT LIKE ROLLER COASTERS. I do not enjoy them. I hate that feeling you get in your stomach, and I feel like I'm weightless...I don't like that. It makes me feel dead or something.
I'm not afraid of spiders, but they creep me out. They're so ugly and squishy looking. Ewwwww. I hate going outside in the summer, and they're all over the place. Sickening.

~I hate bugs... they're ok but they're just so small...
~I hate spiders... I'll kill them if I have to but usually I hate to do so (I had to once cause my friend has an even worse fear. I said there was a spider on the door frame of her pantry and she screamed bloody murder and ran to the other side of the room. I killed it and brought it to the toilet, the whole time saying 'ew' over and over cause its like, a dead thing in your hand...)
~I hate darkness. Actually, that's a bit much, I just don't like it. I've been trying to get used to sleeping in the dark (yes, as a near-15 year old I still have a nightlight of some form). Not working...
~I like small spaces, but I have to feel the walls next to me, so I'm slightly claustraphobic. If it's a closet that's fairly big, I just freak out. I need the walls there to know. It's my mom's fault for that actually  Just cause she's have some sort of wall of blankets around me as a baby I like and still like to be in small spaces that have me feeling both walls or sumthin somehow)
~So I basically hate large open spaces with barely any people. It just freaks me out...
~If there's a phobia for uncles, I have that! One of my uncles just bugs and scares me. I can't really say why we hate each other without offending others (possibly). It just has to do with... how I look...
~I've started to have a slight fear of heights! I used to love being up high and looking down at everyone, but I only like that if I'm in like... the CN Tower (I haven't been to the Space Needle yet... Ha, I've lived 2 hrs from Seattle for 3 years and never went to the Space Needle), where you're enclosed and you're looking down, but if I'm on like, for example from when I was at a high ropes course, I'm on a wire or a platform with no walls high above the ground, I start to freak out (not horribly. I made it up and across one thing when I was there in 7th grade, but this one kid once made it twenty feet up a ladder to a climbing log thing that takes you to the top where you jump off it, on a wire, to a trapeze, called the Leap of Faith, well.... he made it to the top of the ladder and started freaking out and crying... 6th grade, good times...)
~I'm scared of clowns... they're so... happy-go-lucky and stupid, they just scare me. I don't mind being at a circus or near one, but it's just a freaky thing to me)
~I don't like being in an elevator with more than 1 stranger... especially if I'm alone, but that's rare cause I go on trips with my family a lot...
~I can't stand to see someone giving someone else a needle! It's just... seeing it break through skin makes me like, nearly faint. I have to look away when having them cause of it. and ESPECIALLY if there's blood involved (like, drawing blood).
~Speaking of which, I don't like blood much. I'm used to it cause of having a minor (really minor) blood problem with clotting (just a few minutes longer to clot than others), and my nose tends to bleed randomly during the fall (during certain years), but I just can't look at it for too long if it's a bit, but if it's like, at a hospital, I'd faint (and my mom's a nurse which makes it kinda funny...)
~I don't like snakes! They're ok, I won't scream and run if I see one, I just wouldn't wanna be around them my entire life or for too long... especially if its poisonous. I don't mind being around them if I have to tho...
~And I don't like crocodiles! They can kill you or break a bone or something...
~And I HATE swimming with fish! The little nimmos just creep me out actually... and the bigger fish. It ruined a 'dolphin swimming' event thing once... thes fish liked to follow the dolphin so I was like, really scared the whole time I was in the tank with my mom. The dolphin kiss was nice tho (got the pic of it kissing me and me kissing it  )
~I also hate walking in the mucky stuff underwater... especially if you can't see it! You never know what's below...
~And I totally despise bees! I've been stung as a 6 month old baby (TWICE!) and then when I was like, 8, and then when I was like, 11...
I used to scream (for a few years I'd scream bloody murder, then it went normal) and run, but now I just run... I got stuck at my school for two hours cause of my bee fear!
~And.... weirdest of all... I'm afraid...
Of my feet.
Yes, my feet. It's my toes. They're weird, my big ones have that bone thing where it curves in slightly... and I can curl them in, but when I do that my 2nd toe follows and when I try to stop it both toes have to be uncurled. And one foot, I can curl the big toe andpush it out so its straight out.. and it cracks. I've got double-joined fingers and toes.
I have picky fears  And lots of 'em for that matter...
It's weird

^oh wow. That's a lot of fears!
Urm I'm not sure if this is really a phobia but...
Well when it's humid and I'm in a small room I kind of feel like I can't breathe...It happens in cars in which you cant open windows sometimes too....I guess it's a form of Clustrophobia but I'm not too sure.

I am scared to death of dogs. Any size. I won't go near them! Even if I'm safe in an enclosed area and I hear one barking from somewhere, I'll jump.

That's a lot of fears!
 I know, and they're really picky too... like, slightly claustraphobic yet I like the walls next to me... mainly that stuff Oh ya, I'm also afraid of barking dogs. I mean, I LOVE dogs overall, but I HATE it when they bark! I was once biking in behind a ravine owned by the government with my friend from the States (I'm in Canada), and we saw a road down the trail we were on. I heard barking, so I was like, 'Oh, it'll be fine...' (trying to convince myself), so when I get close enough to a wall-like thing next to a cement block between me and the road, I turn around. My friend suddenly is like, 'Look out behind you!', so I looked behind and this white dog that's like, not a small dog but not a medium/large dog has its teeth bared as its barking at me and chasing me down the trail. Of course, I scream and drag my bike (my friend said it was smart to use it as a protective wall and how she would've dropped it and ran, I was like, 'I used it as a protective wall?').
Used to hate dogs as a little kid (got run over by a golden retriever as a 2 year old and it licked my face. It took me until I was like... uh... 3 to get over it thanx to my old beagle dog)... not I'm just terrified of their barking.
Mainly big dogs... little dogs I HATE cause my neighbour's dog is one of those smaller dogs and it's like, 8 and won't shut up once it starts barking. It has such a penetrating bark that when I heard my friend's grandma's dog barking, I was like, 'Heavenly barking...' cause it's that bad with the neighbouring dog.
And this little dog, a toy dog, made me run when I was out walking once cause it was like that white dog, bared teeth and it was following close behind.
There's too many big dogs in my area now... I saw this big black dog across the street once and when it saw me it started running towards me, but the chain stopped it. I jumped and ran a few steps...
I love my dog, she almost never barks (if so, not at people, just when chasing animals). She's so easygoing...

Spiders, ardtonophobic? I can't spell it, but can't do it. Looking at pictures I freak, ask anyone in my sci class, they all got a laugh out of it.

| Haunted Lollipop ☛ Powerpuff Girl I have this horrible fear of dead fish stemming from some 5th grade trauma with a science experiment. Ever since I've always managed to look at fish tanks only to discover a deceased member of that community. My "fish fear" has gotten better since then, but I still get the willies thinking about it. |
