Anything that genuinely scares you

[TheSupremeLeaderOfChaos 1,189]

I hate needles, but that's less of a fear now than a major, major dislike.

 

My true fear is not of water itself, in fact I love to swim, but being relatively close to shore in a tributary or other small area of a lake and not being able to touch the bottom. In the middle of the lake, I'm fine, but when I get close to shore, and I can neither see or feel the bottom, I become terrified and I hyperventilate.

 

I didn't even realize I was afraid of this until this summer, when I panicked in the water when my dad asked me to swim to shore to tie up the boat. You learn something new every day!

 

I'm also kinda afraid of physical pain.

[Sommar 1,289]

My biggest fear is falling. Not heights, just falling. I can't go rock climbing or climb on a tall latter because I don't want to fall and hurt myself. I've done that many times before and I certainly don't want to repeat the incidents.

[Lunia 332]

My biggest fear are deep waters as they hold the unknown creatures and plants that can kill me in an instant or just hurt me. 

[LittleMac 3,084]

I have a few fears:

- Drowning. I hate submerging in water and drowning would be a terrifying way to go.

- Failure. I'm constantly paranoid about messing up because I feel it hurts others just as much as it hurts me.

- Dying. As in, dying before my time like in an accident. I don't even want to think about how that would affect my family...

-clowns

- bees

- fear of failing

- certain horror games

- hornets

- wasps

- yellow jackets

- loved ones dying

- me being in pain

- loved ones in pain

[Tom Snyder 4,111]

My anxiety and bipolar don't help me in that regard, any sudden loud noise makes me jumpy; but watching a horror flick doesn't.

[Magic Note 2,738]

Let's see:

 

Drowning. Self-explanatory.

Hornets/wasps/yellow jackets. Their stings are very painful to deal with.

Heights. Don't need to explain.

Failing. I could go on all day/night on my fear of failing.

Anyone in pain/those who are dying that I know.

Death. I don't think I need to explain either.

Needles. I am genuinely afraid of needles. 

Change. If something very little changes in my life, I don't know how I'll handle it.

Anxiety/fear. I think these two go hand-in-hand for me. Anxiety issues causes me to be more afraid of anything than anything else.

 

edit: I forgot one.

I have two major, realistic fears:

1. Wasps and bees (THE WASP MENACE > THE BEE MENACE. THOSE WASPS MUST BURN)

2. Needles. In my arm. Or anywhere in my skin. Injecting stuff or withdrawing stuff. *passes out (again)*

[Tan 91]

the future scares me. Go to school and look around. . .  these animals are going to be ruling the world one day. I cringe at the thought of the monkeys from my generation becoming politicians and other figureheads in positions of power. It's like a train wreck though, despite my fear of being caught in the collision, I cannot look away and am awe struck waiting to watch stuff burn. . .

[P-Jay 1,987]

roller coasters.

 

but im working on that fear.

[Venomous 18,813]

I have an oddly specific fear of large fish

[Pastel 7,627]

Death, sometimes I can't sleep when I think too much about it...

[Justin_Case001 4,855]

Spending my entire life alone, which looks like it will probably be the case.

[I used to be a stranger 7,989]

Black Holes. The most terrifying thing in mathematics.

[Mothra 541]

I can't deal with squids, they just creep me out so muchm cant go near them. And king ramses from courage the cowardly dog, been scared of him since i was like 6

[Steel Accord 6,658]

Oh plenty frightens me. I can't stomach most horror movies.

 

I don't fear murderers, knives, guns, or what have you. The end of the world? Please, doomsayers have been predicting the end since the beginning, nuclear fire is no different than brimstone or flood water. Just another device for the narrative of humanity's self destructive nature, an amusing cautionary tale but nothing more. Humanity's biggest threat is the greater universe beyond Earth not our own failings.

 

As childish as it might seem, I fear the Devil. Or Satan, Old Scratch, Iblis, the Prince of Darkness, whatever one calls it. The thing that truly scares me is the Parties What Slumber. The evil that works in the world with people as it's tools. Their works are not so grand as far global annihilation goes, but are the personal kinds of demons. Those that delight in the pain of others and wear their suffering as a badge of pride. It is those that I fear. Not the murderer, the bully.

NOPE people I have to live with everyday. All these studies being for nothing and leep living a life with no future and being condemned to failure and stuff.

I hate most insects as they creep me out, especially spiders.

[Clawdeen 12,109]

Tornadoes, death, severe injury/illness and lightning 

[Twitchy-Tremor 281]

Needles and holes. 
 

I could watch people cut their arms off in saw but the lady got pushed into the hole full of needles made me cringe so much!!!!

[Iforgotmybrain 3,505]

Deep water, objects in water, empty swimming pools. All of those really creep me out. Like the thought of swimming in an old deep quarry or something and diving down and accidentally touching some old machinery? Nightmare fuel. I'd probably drown if that ever happened to me IRL because I'd have a panic attack while under water. If you've ever played Subnautica that game is genuinely one of the scariest games I've ever played because it taps into those fears so well.

[Stone Cold Steve Jobs 22,410]

Carnies.

Circus folk. Nomads, you know? Smell like cabbage.

Small hands.

To further elaborate: vile, cruel, violent, sadistic, psychopathic, narcissistic scum; and oppression, which was the miserable life I was cursed to live back then

Dentist drills, you NEVER forget those sounds  

[Retro*Derpy 3,081]

Spiders. Hate them to the core, I have a special dust buster with an extreme reach to deal with them. Gross things
