Your Phobias!
« on: October 25, 2013, 03:55:04 AM »
With Halloween right around the corner, let's talk about what scares us the most!
Everybody post what they're irrationally afraid of. Maybe we can all be irrationally afraid together!
Maybe...

For me, I have Parasitophobia, the fear of parasites. I developed this quite recently, actually. I got roundworms a few months ago and it just threw me into a nervous wreck. Just the feeling of little things inside me and the helplessness I had. It was dreadful. Now, anything majorly parasitic (I.E.  Lice, worms, fungi) just sends a shiver up my spine and gets me very nervous.

I have acrophobia, well reasonably I have to think. I don't fancy rock climbing or roller coasters because of the height.

I also have arachnophobia, but I only fear the black widow spider. So many deadly close encounters that I have to say I've had my fill of it. There's probably other ones out there I don't want to touch either, but it's the closest one I've had to be around.

I have a very significant fear of wasps and dangerous plants. Mainly things that could hurt me that I cannot easily track or identify (dangerous plants look like normal plants and wasps move around really quickly)

I'm afraid I cannot answer this question as I really can't think of anything I'm actually scared of.

^ This, well not entirely afraid, I just don't like being in a situation that is entirely out of my control like that.

I'm horrendously afraid of insects and arachnids, mainly ones that I know are potentially dangerous, but I still don't want harmless ones like moths and bees anywhere near me. I think what scares me is how fragile they are, how you can just accidentally lay your hand on them and they'll be horrifically mutilated. Also, I'm quite afraid of disease of any sort, but I don't think that's "irrational".

0h, and I think I might have mild to severe trypophobia. Look it up...

...or don't.

Kabourophobia, the fear of crabs... No idea why, but they scare me shitless. Just the tought of them makes me nervous, and I feel sick and dizzy just by the smell of cooked crab.

Two phobias; I don't think there are terms for either of them.

1. The cardiovascular system. The thought makes me want to faint. Although, I can stand the sight of blood. I don't understand it, but I know affects me. XD

2. Impossibly large objects. Another strange one, but try and comprehend just how big the sun is for a second; try and squeeze the image into your brain. Makes me sick. >w<

This works for me too, for some reason. Mainly nautical things like ships, though. No idea why. @.@

In fact, I think I'm just creeped out by rusty, old, underwater things like old propellers, anchors, scuba divers etc. It's weird.  XD
