a.d.c. Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 I was just wondering what phobias people have on here. I don't know the exact name for mine, but mine is roaches. Only the large ones though. I know it's from a couple of childhood experiences that I've grown up with this phobia. I DETEST them with a passion. I would honestly rather walk through a roomful of snakes, spiders, or rats(they don't bother me) than a room full of roaches(I'm sure many people would disagree). But that's seriously how much I hate them. They are disgusting. Link to comment
SkyFire Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 I used to be deathly scared of spiders, roaches, and small insects in general. I am over it now. Link to comment
Inconceivable Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 I hav ben incredibly scared of donkeys ever since I was five...I started crying two years ago on our gifted biology's class trip to the zoo. The teacher wanted us to go into the petting zoo and do some kind of assignment for school, but I was so afraid because there were two donkeys in there and oh wow...The teacher thought I was just slacking off until I started bawling...It's kinda funny looking back on it...

ayekasong Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 I'm terrified of flying in an airplane. I'm not sure why. I know this is pretty common, and I know it's still the safest way to travel, but I get so anxious I have made myself sick before on flights. It's a real problem too, because I love traveling.

Meow18 Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 I'm very clausterphobic. I go crazy in small places. I even hate elevators. I'm also terrified of earwigs. I don't mind any other bug, but there's something about earwigs that freak me out. I have nightmares about them all the time! Link to comment

Jimbo10 Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 This is a fun site to look at. It is a list of all documented phobias. Some people must have some real problems!!! I don't have any phobias really, accept maybe I am scared of water snakes to that points.....buuurr they give me chills just thinking about them, ewww leeches, soooooo nasty! Link to comment
MetalJoe Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 Well, I have a few phobias. The two main ones are spiders and heights. I'm not sure what it is about spiders as I have no problem with other creatures like them, nor do I have a problem with tarantulas! The heights one is probably more a fear of falling from a height than anything else - I love flying and I'm fine on chairlifts or cable cars. Link to comment
raggamuffin Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 I have a fear of falling and a fear of lizzards i hate the spooky little creatures. Even when they are dead i hate them. Link to comment
arwen Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 Well, I am scared of spiders. But also their resembling flying family, I don't know their name. They look like thin spiders with wings, or really large musquito's although they don't bite. I am not fond of snakes and worms either. But I as I live in the North and don't have a garden, I can pretty much live my life without ever being confronted with them. 8-[ Once I had a spider at the outside of my window. This is the window that my desk is placed in front of, so whenever I would look out of the window, I would first see this stupid spider. I lived with closed curtains for a week, daily checking if spider was still living outside my window. Then I realized I was 24 years old, and should be ashamed of myself. Which didn't really help, because in the end I went to my next door neighbour who was glad to do a manly thing for a pathetic girl. He grabbed a long stick and opened the window next to the window that was the home of spider. He ruined the cobweb and spider fell down. He never came back and I could enjoy my view again. Just for the record, in most other respects I am a really normal girl. Ilse. Link to comment
Meow18 Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 Thats a funny story ilse. I once saw an earwig in my room a couple years ago and I refused to go in there for a long time after. They are only out for a couple months during the year. So I slept on my sisters bedroom floor. Then a couple nights later I saw one in her room, so I freaked out and so I then slept on my brother's bedroom floor. I just hate those things so much. Link to comment
SummerBreez Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 I have arachnophobia. Any variety of spider will send goose bumps down my spine and make my skin crawl. There is something about the way they look,,,the way they crawl, the way they spin webs to snare their prey. Ooohhh,,,just the thought mortifies me. Link to comment
Iceman26 Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 Clowns. I hate clowns. I socked one in Pomona after he kept shoving balloons in my face. Being in Circus Circus in Las Vegas is like a living hell for me. My uncle's good friend was killed by a clown who was a serial killer. I am also slightly claustrophobic. Link to comment
Emotional Posted February 17, 2005 Share Posted February 17, 2005 Bugs crashes drowning burning... Flying stinging bugs fake police officers Since the movie "clowns from outerspace"...And Puppet Master" Ive been afraid of clowns and puppets they are just scary... Umm...a lot lol Link to comment
arwen Posted February 17, 2005 Share Posted February 17, 2005 What the deal with clowns already! I am not 'scared' of them, but they freak me out anyway. Aren't they supposed to make children laugh? I think Stephen King really ruined that. Link to comment
EmptySoul Posted February 17, 2005 Share Posted February 17, 2005 I hate ladybugs. Not to the point where I faint if I see one, but being around them makes me start to feel really uncomfortable, checking my hair to make sure they're not in there, makes me itch, etc. And growing old. I really really don't want to. I want to stop at about 23. Empty Link to comment
