Might seem a bit of a silly question,but what are you scared of?Do you have a fear of spiders or maybe a dislike for clowns?However stupid or small it might be,post your phobias,you never know another member might help you to get over it!
Mine are pretty common ones,I have a fear of being buried alive or being crammed in small places.I also just hate snakes,I could never touch one!
You?

Snakes aren’t so bad… they’re great to hold!! Held a python whilst on a visit to Heathrows animal reception centre! It was great!!
My fears… well… I suppose I’ll join the “I don’t like multi legged crawly things club”! I don’t terminate ther lives with big dictionaries though!! I relocate them to somewhere I don’t mind them being… not heaven 🙂 !

Didn’t somebody famous once say “there is nothing to fear but fear itself…”?
Who was that? And what do they know about it anyhow?

Bet your wife doesn’t know that you have advertised around the world that she terrifies you one week in four…..and why!!!!!!
Oh, and by the way, my phobia isn’t snakes, sharks or spiders – just as well, in Oz we have more varieties of them than just about anybody else.
Nup, my phobia is needles. Hated them since I was a kid and will do anything to avoid having a needle. Dunno what they call that fear – needle-phobia, sharp-phobia, ouch-phobia?

RE: What Are You Scared Of?
The reason for my snake fear is that I was bitten by one (non poisoned one) as I was a kid in Brazil. Now I have tried to overcome that but I can´t even watch them on TV or even touch a picture of them on a magazine. Fears tend to be unreasonable, so no really an strategy to fight them. I get really unconfortable in small and closed spaces. Besides I hate shortminded people who think they know a lot.

Those who are scared of snakes should try and think about it in the day.You’ll find that you are’nt so scared after all.

RE: What Are You Scared Of?
I think it’s difficult to say what you are ‘really’ scared of sometimes, it’s easy to mix up fear with an intense dislike. For instance I dislike spiders, I’m not too keen on snakes (although I have held them).
As for fear, well, the only thing, so far, that really terrifies me is fire. I’m 41 years old now and can still barely bring myself to light a match. I’ve been involved in two fires, both in the workplace, and strangely enough they are NOT the reason I am terrified of fire, it stems back to an incident when I was about four years old. I leaned back against a lit gas cooker and my jacket caught fire. Fortunately I wasn’t burned but it was damned close.
I can also relate to what someone else said about heights. I’m fine and could walk to the edge of a cliff or a building and enjoy the view, but if anyone else is there I get really scared for them and worry about them falling. Weird, isn’t it?

spiders – no problem
heights – not too keen
Frogs – absolutely terrified of them.

RE: What Are You Scared Of?
Spiders!!!
Plain and simply spiders.
How many people have actually been bitten by one. I was and really do hate them but as frankvw said they can easy be defeated with something heavy on the head. That is the fate of all spiders in my house.

RE: What Are You Scared Of?
what scares me ? hmmm HIGHTS .
really hate them , can’t get near to an unwalled high place without having my feet sweting , what scares me more is other people coming close to dangerously high unwalled places .
I once was up to the last story of a 25 story building that was being built , damn I couldn’t come to 5 meters close to the edge , it was terrible , strange enough I was many times on the edge of really high mountains in Istanbul and Boursa ( Turkey ) and wasn’t scared at all .
other than that , I only fear the day when the Israeli leaders will use their nukes againist us Arabs .

Stupid people, they scare me to death (you know, the question, is there a thinking form of life around here?) 😛
And the spiders can easily be defeated… by meeting a big, heavy, dictionnary. 😉
