What Is Your Fear?
 

What freaks you out? Is there some kind of creature or thing you are scared shitless of?

Mine has to be bees, wasps, hornets and white tail spiders. Other things that freak me out are beatles (especially the jumping ones), cockroaches, and moths.

If there is a trend of certain things I might make a poll.

Roaches scare me to death, it's the only thing that will make me squeal like a little bi*ch on sight.

Driving in heavy traffic makes me panicky too for some reason.

Honestly?

Loneliness. (are we just gonna talk about bugs or real fears?)

And flying cockroaches, can you imagine if flying spiders existed? the thought alone makes me paranoid.

It can include anything. I get scared walking outside in the dark. I'm afraid someone will grab and murder me.

If we're being serious I don't really have any big or irrational fears. Unless off-and-on social anxiety counts, I'm pretty much fearless.

No beer.

**** that ****.

Getting Alzheimer's. That's one of the most heartbreaking diseases to have, even with cancer there's a chance you could beat it, but with Alzheimer's you're fu*ked.

I don't know many people that wouldn't get social anxiety every now and then.

I'm afraid I can't do that Dave.

I'm desperately afraid of being in a car accident, fatal or not.

Men make me nervous (not as much as they used to) if they're tall or leering.

I'm moderately afraid of getting cancer. I'm genetically destined for it, but my sister appears to be at higher risk.

I have an irrational fear of blindness.

And abandonment.

I'm really kind of nervous about 90% of the time and usually for no good reason.

Going deaf.

What?

Being tied down to someone I can't escape

Was that an intentional funny?

nah being tied up is one thing, tied down another

plus I've always secretly been able to escape being tied up, no dude has managed it successfully and they don't make child sized handcuffs

Thats what oversized zip ties are for. Challenge accepted.

Being forever alone.

no I can get out of those too. I'm like a slutty Houdini

@fred

The fear that someone will hurt you, and there will be nothing I can do to prevent it.

.

I fear contact, I dislike hugs. Being really close with a human creeps me out. I need to keep my distance.
However, my biggest fear is being diagnosed with a long-term sickness. Deafness, Cancer, Mental sickness.

Even from loved ones?

Yes, I touch my mom on the shoulder when I see her off, you native speakers call it pat I think.
I don't know how to explain the feeling when somebody hugs me but it's like I'm defenseless and constricted.
I can't deal with the warmth of another body and the external action. Once in school a classmate hugged me and noticed I was shivering.
She even confronted me. This was one of the worst and most embarrassing moments.

Mmmm, interesting.
srry i don't mean that in a wrong way but i have a niece who is like that, she has autism though.

Do you get an overwhelming feeling when hugged?

i don't mean to pry, but is this something you want to get over or is it something you think you can never change?

Ah, I have no Autism diagnosed. I've been traumatized and have been to psychotherapy for 6 years in middle-school without diagnosis.
Both my parents are mentally sick, but I am not affected genetically, however I have in comparison to my sister apperceived the happenings, violence and melt-downs.
The thing is I'm naturally shy but I managed over the years to speak to people and nowadays I can do presentations without issues.
I have no idea if and how I can work on overcoming my fear because I can hold feelings back but not erase them.

This is rather embarrassing but I've got emetophobia. For anyone that doesn't know what that is.. its a fear of vomiting.

@Silenzio

I see.

I hope you overcome it though, it's ok to be shy and be reserved but it's another thing to fear intimacy.

I won't pretend i know what is like for you cause i really don't, even though im not a hugger i don't have a problem hugging a stranger and in a relationship im very affectionate.

I can't imagine ppl missing out on that feeling of physical affection.
If you can't hug someone how can you ever kiss them? physical affection is what bonds ppl beyond words.

i hope you don't feel im judging you, i just don't want you or anybody to miss out on that.

Sharks and Bears. I'll never go camping in the deep woods of the UP because I'm terrified of bears, and I'll never swim in the deep ocean because sharks scare the **** out of me. Yes it's irrational and rare that they attack people, but idgaf.

No other fears otherwise.

Doing the ****ing laundry, apparently

Fabreeze > 3-4 days or so of booze and sweat stains, right?

Edit: and what appears to be either blood or tomato sauce?

Getting old. Genuinely feel panicky when I think about it.

Being jailed because of a clerical error.
I keep my termination of probation/ parole paper work in my glove box of my car, 5 years after my release.Should the cops,and or government try to round me up like cattle.

I don't like even like going in up to my shoulders at the beach. Giant fish that eat you. What don't you dumb ****s understand?

I miss those commercials. They kicked the Budweiser frogs' asses.

Thats right O' Swimmerus Minimus. They still crack me up. I was laughing pretty hard just a minute ago when I posted that.

Authority.

oh my god :laughing:

these commercials were so excellent.

losing my eyesight...

****ing pool vacuums dude.
And deafness.
