   Your phobia?
  For me:1. Fear of needles.2. Arachnaphobia.3. Fear of snakes.4. Fear of EXTREMELY dark places.Anyone else care to share?RapidArp   | My Game Collection | Gamers of the World Unite | My Journal | 
  I have no problem with dark places, I feel like the darkness is something warm that protects me  (I''m serious).The only big phobia I have is Arachnaphobia.I have other wories as well, but they are not phobias, they are normal.   Height Map Editor | Eternal Lands | Fast User Directory;  1. Arachnophobia, but a bizarre variation; it is only these creepy little jumping spiders that pop up from time to time.  Literally.  They scare the hell out of me.  Then I SQUISH them.  Altogether agood way to deal with a fear.2. Acrophobia.  Dealt with this one by taking up a habit of hopping out of airplanes.  3. Demophobia - this is the kicker for me; when there are too many people for me to keep track of I get really agitated. ;  Wide open endless bodies of water. I went fishing on Lake Superior once on a day with light fog. All I could see was water around me and I started flaking out. On trans-Atlantic flights, I close the window blind and bury my face in a book. I will never take a cruise. In relation I am also terrified of drowning. ;  I have a fear of listing fears.AAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! ;  Claustrophobia, kinda.  Many tight places don''t really bother me; it''s when I feel I don''t have the power to get out, usually combined with fear of harm, that does me in.  In the right (wrong) circumstances, I completely lose it. ;  Really really deep water, where you have no idea what is down lurking in the depths under you and you cant see it.  Like the big ocean shelf thing where it just abruptly drops down into nothingness.  Also really big motors underwater are freaky(like dams, boat engines, etc..). ;  1. Submarines. I always feel like they''re gonna sink.2. Drowning, explanes the above. 3. Being in very clear water with goggles and you looking underwater, it makes me feel like a shark is just gonna come out of nowhere.4. Bees, being fataly allergic to them, I bet you can understand why. There''s no town drunk here, we all take turns.Velocity Gaming Force;quote:Original post by Naaga  Claustrophobia, kinda.

I can't eat or drink after people.2. I don't use public bathrooms, because I can't relieve myself in the presence of others.   [edited by - Yawmain on July 30, 2003 2:24:44 AM]
