What's Your Phobia?

Sunken ships. Being near them or even watching them on TV really weirds me out for some reason. I don't think I could ever throw on some SCUBA equipment and go exploring one of them. I don't know what it is but they just are too creepy to me.

I'm not a big fan of ladders or being in high places without some sort of railing/security. When I was 7 or 8, frisbee got stuck on the roof of a garage at the beach. 8 foot garage, told my Dad I'd go get it. As soon as I got on that roof, I froze. Dad had to come up and help me down the ladder.

Also not a big fan of fire, although I'm slowly conquering that one. In 7th grade science class, a buddy of mine was playing with a striker near the gas supply where you hook a hose up to connect to a bunsen burner. Needless to say, the gas wasn't completely turned off, and he hit the striker near the supply and a fireball flew in my direction. I lifted my binder in front of me to block it. Scorched the back of my binder pretty good. So ever since then, matches, lighters and I aren't very close buddies.

And while I'm ok with my own blood, if I see enough of someone else's blood, I get hellaqueasy. And while I'm getting blood drawn, I completely look in the other direction. Learned I can't watch my blood being drawn the hard way...almost passed out on a 5 foot 100lb phlebotomist...

LMAO! Absolutely stellar post. Hardest I've laughed on this site in a while.

And to top it off, Dirtbag missed the whole thing because he's at home watching Friends and hiding from his fuzzy teddy bear.Yours & Dirtbag's posts :lol:

Being handcuffed by a chick during foreplay and then being robbed her.

I'm afraid of running out of booze and pills.
Ahhh...........a kindred spirit.......
AND after reading this thread, I FEAR I will need more of both

I don't like being around sunken ships or in the deep ocean. I'm fine on a boat or ship but as far as getting in, F that. That's where the sharks live and the fish take a dump. I don't like closed in places either, like submarines and airplanes. The smell of recycled air makes me uneasy. These aren't real fears. I can do all of those things, I just don't like to. I probably wouldn't like being in space either.

Zombies have always creeped me out just because you can't kill them without a flame-thrower. But since their not real it's not really a big deal.

It's not a fear per se, but I don't like being in crowded spaces with several other people. Even at meetings, I always need to make sure I'm not sitting between two people

I am the same way. Everyone has to be at least an arm length plus 6 inches away from me. I do not like it when people stand right behind me in lines, sit next to me, or try to get close to me when I am talking.

On top of that I have an unhealthy fear of needles. I have seen bullet wounds and amputations, so gore does not bother me, but I cannot stand the sight of a needle going into the vein.

I also do not like people touching or going anywhere near mine or their own belly button. It irks me kind of like nails on a chalkboard.

That A Bush, will ever be president again!!!!!

I have an unnatural fear of the ocean. I love lakes, rivers, and anything freshwater, but honestly I've had recurring dreams of me dying in the ocean. There's nothing that has caused that, but it does.

I used to be afraid of spiders until i went to Iraq, they have what they call Camel Spiders over there..look it up,nasty lookin basta*ds.



Yikes! I would cry if I saw one of those up close. A grown man crying because of something like that...just pathetic, but it would probably happen.
