Do you have any phobias?

[FuneralCry]

I have an intense fear of ageing. This contributes to my desire to die really, I cannot imagine myself being old and it fills me with dread the thought of living for decades.
I have an phobia of loud noises, as they tend to make tinnitus worse and my ears are pretty damaged already. I live near a hospital so whenever I go for a walk there is always ambulances which fills me with fear. I'm very sound sensitive.
I'm really scared of escalators (the moving stairs in shopping centers) just thinking about them makes me feel sick as I lost my balance on one a few years ago. Luckily I haven't been to a shopping center for years but other people say this fear is irrational.
I guess just staying alive is scary I guess.

I have an intense fear of heights and the sight of blood. Which makes this whole ctb'ing thing harder than it needs to be.

Also I avoid being in public unless I have to. I live in a dangerous part of the city so personal safety is always on my mind.

I am a man who walks alone
And when I'm walking a dark road
At night or strolling through the park
When the light begins to change
I sometimes feel a little strange
A little anxious when it's dark
Fear of the dark
Fear of the dark
I have a constant fear that something's always near
Fear of the dark
Fear of the dark
I have a phobia that someone's always there
Have you run your fingers down the wall
And have you felt your neck skin crawl
When you're searching for the light?
Sometimes when you're scared to take a look
At the corner of the room
You've sensed that something's watching you

Sometimes I would sing this along when drunk. (Haven't gotten drunk in a while, BTW...)

On topic: sudden, unexpected noises.

needles. i seriously just cant. and the very last needle i got was no help.

my little brother couldnt get sick because he wasnt doing too good (hes fine now as far as i know) so i had to get a flu shot. my parents promised me that if i got the shot that they would take me out. i tried, i just couldnt do it. (my stepfather works at a permanent mental health place) he told me that there was a girl and that she had trouble getting to bed but that once she was there she was fine. i believed him. so i let him wrap me in a blanket. he then wrapped me in duct tape. then he sat on me while his friend (that i didnt even know was showing up) gave me the needle. so yeah that was the last one i will ever get i swear i will die before i get another one. (oh and btw they still didnt take me out like they promised. the only deal was i had to get the needle. apparently its just fucking fine to be conniving assholes though)

 

[death137]

I've intense fear of aging, sleeping alone and being in public.

 

[WornOutLife]

When I was 5, I watched the video of this goddamn autopsy of one alien who had crashed in Roswell and I've been scared of aliens which supposedly look like this since then! (even though I have never obviously seen one)

Now, I'm not that scared but I feel really uncomfortable. Even attaching this picture was scary for me lol.

Btw, the video turned out to be fake! I hate them lol.

 

[Dr Iron Arc]

Too many to count, I'm sure there's a phobia for that too.

 

[BlankUser]

Insects

 

[ClownMe]

Spiders.

 

[LONE WOLF.]

Pissed off Mice with Machine Guns!

 

[AJ.]

Yes, I have social phobia and... This may sounds silly, but I am slightly afraid of PT-1000 temperature sensor. I was working with that in school previous year and that was odd.

 

[Meditation guide]

claustrophobia

 

[SelmaJezkova10]

fear of heights and insects, the elevators also make me very nervous

 

[faex42]

Agoraphobia/Social Phobia since age 17

 

[UseItOrLoseIt]

Compulsively daydreaming of losing everything and everyone, of losing my mind and being institutionalized, my folks dying, my ctb not succeeding, the effect my ctb will have on my nephews.

Also, every new situation is a nightmare. The fear of failure is strong.

I have a phobia of everything turning to shit. Real, visceral fear of the future in all of it's forms. Everything is either a bad omen or a fuck up in progress. Between later and now is an eternity of nail-biting suspense.

Also, I'm reeeally afraid of hights. Which is the same thing - you're not actually afraid of hights as much as the bottom.

 

[Deadboy]

I have a serious phobia of talking to others. Verbally is almost impossible if I don't know you. My throat clenches when I try to talk and hurts bad when I try to force a word. Typing is not much of a problem because I feel like it's a safe barrier.

 

[nolongerhuman]

Bees. And cops. A bee stung me for no reason when I was like five and a cop screamed at me for no reason when I was like twelve. I'm also kind of afraid of geese.

 

[nightnightnitrite]

Drowning. Feeling helpless, being choked by water and seeing the air above me sounds scary.

 

[motel rooms]

Very dumb "sane" people scare me shitless

 

[jj83]

I have a severe phobia of roaches. I can't even kill them. I scream and go into an absolute frenzy.

 

[Rayzieka]

Small spiders or dead insects.
Many small repeating holes that small insects could be hiding in.
And children's saliva... they just.. make too much of it...

 

[Shadowrider]

Barbers/hair stylists. I loathe the thought of anyone touching my hair.
Learnt how to shave my mohawk so that I don't have to go through this torture.

 

[OrphicEnd]

Thalassophobia, you're swimming peacefully and something touches your foot...

 

[Nobody Special]

Cancer

 

[Onelegman]

I have arachnophobia

 

[sserafim]

I have a fear of failure. I'd say that it's my main fear. I also have a fear of being insignificant. I want to be successful, special and exceptional, not just average, mediocre or ordinary. I want to be important and significant, not just another one of the masses or just like everyone else. I want to be unique and unironically #notlikeothergirls. There's nothing I would hate more than to be normal. I also have a fear of being independent and on my own, as I'm scared of the real world. Additionally, I have a fear of ageing and getting old. I can't imagine myself being old, nor do I want to. I used to have social phobia/social anxiety but I think exposure therapy helped mitigate it

 

[thenamingofcats]

anaphylaxis

 

[ijustwishtodie]

I fear suffering, any type of suffering. I fear that, if I continue to live, my already immense suffering will be significantly worse due to mere chance. I think that @pthnrdnojvsc knows exactly the magnitude of suffering that a human being could get in their lifetime

 

[eatantz]

I have a deep fear of being stranded in the middle of the ocean
