Well i thought i would start this thread to see how many people out there are like me..

Me personally, im terrified of BALLOONS. Yep you read that correctly BALLOONS! i dont know where it came from but ive been like this my entire life. There's a video somewhere of me at my !st birthday, and i refuse to go in the room because it had balloons in there.

Even now at 17 i cant stand to be in the same room as a balloons, i just freak out.

My other fear's over the years have been: Wedding cakes, puzzles, crayons, logtrucks, sunbeds, marshmellows and now also driving. I freak out everytime i get in a car. Im starting to get over it though.

So if you have a random fear that everyone else finds pathetic, JOIN ME!

Bridges.

I'm not nearly as bad as I used to be, thankfully. They used to scare the bejesus out of me. Now I'm only mildly afraid of 'em.

Bees.

I was stung by one when I was in third grade, and I've been deathly afraid ever since.

heights.
rats.
pitch black places.
the bathroom mirrors in my old school.
clowns.

Welcome to the random fear group! You are not alone...
Or maybe we are.. i duno.

Its funny how one thing someone is terrified of while someone else loves them. Such as bridges. I love bridges

omg if you say you like clowns i will freak

-Dark room's
-All white bathrooms
-Closed in area's
-needles or sharp obejects
-Things over my eye's
-Heigts or bridges(especially the one's that go ove a sea)
-Clowns
-Anything that crawls really especially those bastard snake's (even though they slither)
-Cockroaches
-Bugs
-Riding ontop of animals like horses,camal's etc

Na im not a fan of clowns either! Their freaky as shit.

And dcluver12: Needles?! I freaking love needles! Tattoo's piercings, blood test. LOVE them all

Yea i've never liked them! I know i'm a wus

A lot of people hate needles though.

Balloons on the other hand, people just find pathetic. But i seriously cant help it

That's okay everybody has a weird thing that scares them. Like me not like to ride on animal's is pathetic!

I kinda makes me wonder: did you fall off a horse or something when you were younger to make you scared of them?

I've got a slew of fears: the dark (even as grown, married woman I have to have a nightlight), fire (I can't even light a match and I won't use a gas stove), large dogs, heights (no window seats or even looking out the window in an airplane), roller coasters, going into a pool or water more knee deep (I'm convinced I drowned in a previous life), any and all horror movies, and the strangest of all -- making phone calls.

Holy shit im the same with phone calls! I never answer the phone and if i really have to ring someone ill txt them first and make sure they answer. If someone else answer's i hang up

Ugghhh... Random fears!

Alrighty heres mine:
Clowns. Im petrified of them. I can't watch them on the telly or look at them in magazines! As far as i'm concerned they are the devil in disguise!

Under the sea Even Finding Nemo gets a little difficult to watch!

Egyptian Antiquities I didn't realise this one until I freaked out in the Louvre in Paris last October. I totally showed myself up!

China Dolls I won't enter a room that has these in...!

I am terrified of really, really, really small elevators!

1 CREEPY CRAWLERS
2 CLOWNS
3 CLOSED ROOMS
4 SEEING OPEN WOUNDS(I FAINT)
5 MANIKINS

Spiders, heights, bridges with water underneath, and the dark. Funny thing is, being a Paranormal Investigator, we do it at night, yet I'm afraid of the dark. Go figure! LOL

Well, no offense to anybody...

1. Mexican Shopowners from Tijuana
When I went to Mexico once, all these crazy shopowners kept chasing my family around trying to get us to buy stuff.

2. The color Pink

3. Other peoples feet

4. The movie Jaws

and..

5. Charles Manson
If I see him on TV i freak out!

It's weird -- I can answer the phone just fine, but I can't make a phone call to someone I don't know, like even calling for a dentist appointment is nearly impossible. It really hurts my work because I have such a hard time just calling people up out of the blue. This is why I absolutely LOVE email -- I make most of my business contacts via email and set things up that way (it's easier to reach people via their email anyway.)

The only people I can call without thinking about it are my mother and my daughter. There are some family members I can't even call, like my brothers or my sister-in-law and nieces, and not because I don't like them or anything.

I have no idea why I can't make phone calls -- I think it's innate shyness, low self-esteem, a fear of being rejected for some reason. I went almost 2 years paying for a service I wasn't using because I was too afraid to call the company to cancel!!

Oh, I just thought of another really, really weird one -- astronauts in those white space suits with the glass ball helmets! Freaks me out!!

Yep, i have fears as well, so here i go!:

Heights: wow, really bad fear of mine... seriously, at the "Idol" concert, i didn't realize what the term "nosebleed" meant...until i sat up there. i started hyperventilating and shaking at first, and my parents thought i wasn't going to make it through the concert...but i did .

Needles: holy crap...i literally faint everytime i have to go to the doctors...its just really bad, im glad none of you have to see it, b/c i would be insanely embarrased

Driving: i am constantly pressured to drive (i'm 17), but i seriously can't even gather enough courage to even put my foot on a pedal anywhere. i wish it would go away, considering i need to get around by some sort of vehicle for my job/ college...i just don't think im going to be able to do that anytime soon

Feet! I can't look at them. They really disgust me and thats including my own!

I have a deathly fear of peacocks. Even peacock feathers scare the crap out of me.

I have a fear of having my back to the door whenever I'm in a room. I always have to be able to see the door or I freak out!

Big, fat, hairy rats! UGH!!
Cockroaches
Heights (kind of)
Bullfrogs!

I'm disturbed by E.T.

I get mocked sometimes by my family and best friends for this but I am flat-out serious here.

No i for whatever reason just don;t like them. I think it's cause i'm afraid of falling off.

Okay i thought of somemore

-Being by myself in a house while watching Scary movies. Cause my house creaks!
-Being in a pool with water above my neck-And that's because i almost DROWNED TODAY!!!!
-Rats
-Hair on the floor

I used to be the same with the hair on the floor, but after working in a motel for 3 years im kinda used to it. I have to pull it out of plug holes all the time.

I see alot of fears here.. Yet none from balloons?? Surely im not the only one!

I think you may well be the only one Stef!

I thought of another:
Birds I hate them... with a passion, horrible little fluttery things covered in feathers! *shudders*

Well i really don't like those air ballons ride. Cause i'm always afraid that there going to fall on me.

Oh, I have some
Some are weird, so I've been told, but whatever

`heights
`clowns
`insects
`needles/injections
`operations
`flying
`planes
`large boats (I freaked out during Happy Feet when that huge boat came on the screen)
`being smothered (I can't have anything over my face)
`mirrors
`closed spaces
`windows at night
`dark hallways
`the dark in general
`spiders
`open closets
`having my back to open doors
`failing
`ending up alone

The list goes on :/

How could I forget this one!
It's that bad that at 29 I still have to take someone to hold my hand!

(I think I may be a bit of a freak! I'm a nice one though!)

You guys are remiding me of things

-Anything over my face
-Closed Spaces
-Big Dogs
-Spiders
-Mayo
-Bee's
-Woods or forests
-A big test
-Stairs. (I have them in my house and i'm always afraid that i'm gonna fall)











I know!!!!! I make my Mom hold my hand when i get and injection at the Doctors!

(Your not a freak )

Me too because Stairs are another fear of mine.
I have fallen down stairs (in public) so many times that I panic if its a massive flight of them.
Not good when you are trying to desend from the Great Wall of China. It took me 40 minutes to walk down them and I was freaking out the whole time!!!

At 29 Needles is a silly thing to fear. I should be over that one by now... lol!

I would have been freaking out to. My brother has falling down stairs countless of times. And my Mom broke her ass on stair's. So i hate them . That an i always feel like i'm gonna fall

I'll 'fess up to the one that has gotten me teased the most (I posted it in the phobias thread too) - frogs and toads. Big ones, little ones, it doesn't matter - I don't like frogs or toads. Everybody has made fun of me for years, and I know it's irrational, but I can't help it! When we were younger either my brother or my cousin threw one on me and ever since, I've had this phobia.

I don't think my fears of heights, flying, snakes, and drowning are all that random. Oh, but I am afraid of roller coasters and other fair rides that take you high up in the air or spin you upside down. I like those that stay on the ground and go really fast, but no thanks to being upside down or high in the air, or both. I wouldn't feel safe.

Your not the only one who hates forgs and toads i hate them! My friend love them tho

Mine is really weird and I always get made fun of for it. But I am terrified of fish. I don't like to look at them, touch them, eat them, even be near them. I won't swim in a lake, pond, etc. if there's fish in it because I'm scared one will touch me. I hate when they look at me. I was at the zoo once and a fish looked at me and I ran and cried. It's really stupid, but I really hate them.

My ex-boyfriend was afraid of cold soup....it used to make me giggle. He could stand it in the can, but i had to put it in the microwave for him....silly boy.
Personally, I'm afriad of going to sleep and never waking up....**shudders**

Cold soup? I cant say ive ever heard that one!

The only food fear i really have is marshmellows, when i put my hand in the bag and it has that flour stuff on them. I feeling makes me shudder!

OMG!
How could I forget.
George Bush. He is so stupid that he scares the living hell out of me.

DCWORNNERD1 ^

I need to get out of the Fangirl thread more often This is a fun thread and some of your fears have really surprised me, especially the cold soup one LoL

Here's mine:

-Bees (this is one of my worst)
-Spiders
-Clowns
-Ventriloquist Dummies -shudders-
-I'm afraid to make phone calls, too. And I won't answer the phone if the number on the caller I.D. is one I don't recognize.
-Porcelain Dolls
-Driving on freeways (the heavy traffic and high speed scares me to death after my car accident. I had to have my sister drive me to the Idol concert Sunday because you have to take the freeway to get to the arena.)
-Deep water
-Flying
