phobias

[Bsergent]

I hate butterflies or moths...

AMEN! I don't feel so weird anymore. I have never in my life liked moths. I freak out when one is near. The bigger they are the worse I am.

My boss kids me all the time and tells me that I am scared of everything on the planet. I hate bridges. Driving across tall ones freak me out. I refuse to walk across tall bridges such as a swinging bridge.

I do not like frogs. They are scary and ugly. My sister's pool last summer got a couple of frogs in it and I thought I would "wig" out.

I too do not like clowns. However, latley I have gotten better with this matter.

I don't like snakes at all...i totally freak out and run in the other direction. little to my knowledge (thank god) we had one living in our kitchen when i was in high school for about a week!!!! i saw it one day outside by the back door and ran down to the pool screaming. My mom was like...should we tell her, and of course my dad always up for a good time was like Yeah!!! so they said that on sunday my dad heard a movement in the papers and paper bags in the kitchen. he went and looked but didn't see anything. then thursday, yes sunday to thursday, my dad came upstairs from the basement and it was sitting in the middle of the kitchen floor!!!!!!!!!!! he went outside and got a stick and guided it out the door (he's really afraid of snakes too)!!! OMG could you imagine if my sister, mom or i had found that thing!!! we would have had to move!!!!!

I also had a panic attack in the statue of liberty. i just kept thinking, what happens if this metal breaks and everything falls down, or something catches on fire in here. I always think like this...what happens if this roller coaster breaks and i fall and get hurt (only started going on those a few years ago)!!! i usually have to drive to be in control with certain people because otherwise i am afriad of getting into an accident and getting hurt, chalk this one up to being a pedi icu nurse and seeing all those kids who crash their cars, and my dad being a fire fighter and fire protection engineer.

I was soo busy ranting about the spiders, I almost forgot the other two things that scare me senseless...and I think someone else said this as well--deep water--or at least deep water that I cannot see the bottom--I am terried of going out in deep water if it is not clear enough to see whats under there! oceans or lakes, either one--I hate it! and the other, not really terrifies me, just makes me very uneasy and queasy is knives or razors or anything that can cut me! if I see a scene in a movie involving a knife or someone getting cut--it makes me physically ill--I can use a knife just fine, but it I start to imagine or visualize being cut...*shudder* it makes me dizzy! heaven forbid I cut myself ever--I freak out! the littlest paper cut sends me to to the medicine chest for bandaging and I will keep it bandaged waaay longer than necessary because I can't stand the sight/feel of a cut....!

Fish. I hate fish. I like them if they are in a tank and in movies (I love Finding Nemo ), but being in the water with them totally freaks me out :rolleyes:

Oh ya, fish in the same water as me would FREAK me out!!! Oh, speaking of fish and water, I am also super paranoid of seaweed touching my body when I swim in the lake!!!!!

Thats hilarious, you all just reminded my of something else I am super phobic about! I will NOT go in water that I cannot see through. I will not swim in lakes, oceans, rivers, ect. I hate fish or any water dwelling creature that you cant see that might choose to touch, or eat you at any given moment...any you dont even have any warning cause you cant even see it in the dirty disgusting water!!!! Now how stupid of an idea is it to go swimming in dirty water?!!??!

Common sense tells you not to swim in water that you cannot see what is swimming with you, right? I mean, for all you know, there could be huge monsters or giant man eating fish under there!!!! Nope, not for me. I will stay on shore and lay in the sun, thank you very much!!

Wasps and bees. I was stung a couple of times when I was a little boy and had adverse reactions. I've been stung a few times since then and I did just
fine, but I still shy away when I hear one buzzing around.
