Phobias?

Recommended Posts

Probably at least the phobia of medical needles. Those things are my worst enemy because I tend to faint or at least form disgusting mental images and burst in tears before or after an injection. Fainting occurs most usually after that though. I can't even remember when was the last time I didn't faint!

 

Natural waters too, but I can't call that a phobia exactly. Especially swimming in a natural body of water when the bottom isn't visible is enough to make me jumpy. If even lakes have such an effect on me, I can only wonder how oceans would be.  :blink:

Bugs, creepy crawlies, what skitters in the night, slitherers, slimey wimys, whatever you call'em and whatever they are. They do NOT agree with me. I find them facinating from a distence! Close and personal. No. no. no. no. No way, no how, I doubt any  amount of money or stupid gear I'm in, that is off the table of suggestions right away. I don't care if they don't or won't bite. Still no!

Oh, Flamingoes freak me out :') I wouldn't call it a problem as I've never seen one in real life. I probably wouldn't run from one but I wouldn't really like to stand next to one. 

 

I just don't like the legs >.>

I have only three main fears.
-heights

-dark water

-losing my mind

 

Most people fear things like bugs and spiders and snakes, but I have no fear of that kind of thing. I've frequently picked up spiders the size of a quarter just to look at them closer. xD

I used to suffer from submechanophobia (fear of man-made objects underwater) and arachnophobia (fear of spiders).

 

Now they don't bother me in the slightest. ^^


"I could have been happy above if I'd never donned the copper carapace and dipped my head beneath the waves to hear the muddled man-made sounds. Distorted and dreamlike droning. The whir and thrashing of a distant propeller, the tumultuous thundering thud of fogbound freighters. Mud underfoot, no sights, except the grasp of a diver's trained hand, dreaming of distant lands knowing all the while this is what I love, not the blue skies and wondering faces above. Canvas, rubber, brass, copper, and glass. Leather and lead, mud and sweat, heaving around in dark, damp depths seldom seen by most yet talked about by all. As if a sunny, happy place where mermaids and seahorses play and chests of gold are lain bare, untarnished by salt and time for all to grasp who are bold enough to go below..." -"Deep Sea Diver", Steven L. Waterman

Eternity is my biggest fear, anything, even if it's good, that might last forever, seems extremely scary to me, being stuck somewhere FOR EVER, knowing there is no release, no end at all, seems absolutely horrifying. 

Oh, and spiders. I usually jump when I see them.

I don't necessarily have a phobia, but my little brother has Trypophobia, which is a pathological fear of holes.

 

Fun Fact: Felix Arvid Ulf Kjellberg, or Pewdiepie, also has Trypophobia and you can watch his video on him trying to overcome his Trypophobia and utterly failing. I had my little brother watch the video and his reaction was hilarious. :D

I have a phobia that i dont like to sleep in luminous rooms. The room must be completely dark for me before falling asleep because i can see very well in the dark as well :)

I used to be afraid of pretty much every animal out there. Now, having had cats and a dog, I'm not scared of them anymore at all. I also hate needles, but not to such an extent that I'd faint from them or something. I just really want to keep them away from me. Lastly...I hate roller coasters. I love heights, but being in an uncomfortable car hurtling towards the ground really, really sucks. I hate that feeling of freefall, and I hate the G-forces. Never going into one again.

Used to have ergophobia. The very thought of working had me considering just retreating under my duvet.

Fear of being inadequate. Fear of making mistakes. Fear of being unprofessional. Fear of losing trust of my employer. Fear of socially distancing myself as a result of being an introvert and having Asperger's as well as preferring solitude, and other fears that combined themselves into this one umbrella. Though, that fear is dead, and have been for well over a year.

Hmm, is it possible to have an irrational fear of having people trust you too much?
