Do you think I could just leave this part blank and it'd be okay? We're just going to replace the whole thing with a header image anyway, right?

Fears and Phobias

Some of my phobias:

Spontaneous Human Combustion
Needles
Dogs
Flying insects such as wasps, bees, hornets, horseflies, etc
Throwing up
Death
Getting deadly diseases, pathogens, cancer, etc
Static electricity
"Germs" (because of fears of throwing up and deadly diseases)

Fears:

Large predators that are (near) impossible to stop when they're trying to attack you: Lions and tigers and bears(oh my!), wolfs, sharks, etc
Sharp objects and getting cut
Being shocked by electricity.
Heights

Re: Fears and Phobias

Were all your phobias actually diagnosed by a doctor, or are you just really afraid of them? In other words, can you see a picture of a dead person without any bodily reaction (ie, not just going "ehhhh"). As death is one of your supposed phobias.

I have no phobias, and basically everyone has fears so I won't even bother.

I asked my Psychology teacher about phobias, and she says that a fear of SHC is a phobia, and about whether something is feared rationally or not. I [EDIT I'M AM UNSURE OF WHETHER OR NOT I HAVE HAD PANIC ATTACKS] I have had panic attacks from fearing SHC, throwing up, and deadly diseases.

I am afraid of needles irrationally. When I went to the dentist to get a filling, I couldn't stand needles, so I didn't get an anesthetic, even though the pain I could potentially get from the drill could be worse than the pain from the needle.

I cannot go into a room that has a wasp, bee, etc in it, and I leave immediately, if I see one, and don't go back into it. Flying insects are small, very fast, and hard to see. The moment you take your eyes off of them, they could end up next to you in a matter of seconds, and one movement of your leg, or your arm could land on them and I'd get stung. I can't do anything without knowing where they are, so I'd rather go to another room and do nothing, than continue playing a video game that I was in the middle of.

With "germs" it may not be as bad as other things but I still thing it is irrational. Whenever I touch anything that could potentially be dirty: something on the floor, something from outside, something in the bathroom, dirty dishes, a place with a lot of dust, I wash my hands immediately so I don't have to worry about the possibility that I will scratch my nose if it itches, or if I forget about touching something dirty, and I eat before washing my hands, because I am afraid of throwing up.

I'm not saying that I'm not afraid of anything, I'm just saying that I can't really think of something I am afraid of.

and when I was 1-5 I was scared of mirrors because I thought that my reflection would jump out, kill me, and assume my identity

Re: Fears and Phobias

fear of death is a natural survival instinct and not a phobia. i have an unfortunate case of hemophobia. i need to leave a room when someone's bleeding from more than a scratch or else i get nauseous. it sucks because i can't really watch zombie movies without getting sick even though i want to.

Re: Fears and Phobias

A couple of my fears/phobias are arachniphobia (I can't stand spiders), acrophobia (I just have an EXTREME fear of heights), fear of the dark (I feel like something is going to pop out of nowhere and torture meh in the dark), fear of GIANT Rats (OH GAWD NO), fear of blood (can't stand the look of blood), and fear of Goldfish (I feel like they're going to become evil and will take me away, no joke).

Re: Fears and Phobias

I get scared to death when I see an elevator. I could classify that as my fear.

I do have a phobia, and it's diving. I like water, swimming, drinking, but diving is impossible for me to do.

Re: Fears and Phobias

I actually don't have that many fears, but here are some:
The destruction of my technology (such as the annoying crack in my laptop's screen getting bigger).
Food that reminds me of vomit.
Glass breaking.
Fire.

Some of the common fears from early childhood, I have gotten over, such as fear of ghosts, the dark, and heights. I used to think of the mythical ghosts as something that actually exists, and is always evil. Now I think of them as those   psychological illusions caused by rumors, imagination, and hoaxes. I used to think of the dark as pure evil. Now I think of it merely as the absence of light. Used to think of great heights as, well, if you fall you'll die, now I know the correct way of landing at relatively short heights so I'm not injured, and I know that at greater heights, well, I wouldn't be there in the first place.
It's interesting to note that as one get's older, they lose some fears but gain new ones.

Most the the fears that I have, have gotten less extreme over time.

Lol, all I needed was, "Yeah, I'm pretty sure they're phobias, not just fears."

Your... Your avatar... is bleeding...
My fear is of the thoughts that fill my mind.
The ones that won't let me fall asleep at night.
Thoughts of doing something wrong without even knowing.
Thoughts of regret even though I thought I did the right thing.

And my worst fear is my hallucinations in the middle of the night.
This topic Is a great illustration of my... insanity.
