I'm highly intimidated by the color yellow...

Don't really know why...

I'm paranoid of people. It's a medical thing.

I have a phobia about... damn near everything. I also have a peeve about not examining things that are strange. I've ruined a lot of pants that way.

I have many phobias, arachnopobia, acrophobia(heights), and a fear of ceiling fans, which has no name :D
In regards to the ceiling fan: all the time? Or just when they look like they're going to whir down and wreak total devastation on you and the room because of what looks like faulty installation (but can't be because it happens with every single damn fan i've ever seen)? If the latter...i can see where you're coming from.

Anywho, I have a really intense phobia for anything insect, entomophobia, wherein anything from a hissing cockroach to the tiniest ant can make me panic. Even typing it freaks me out a little. I started having to go to sleep with the television on to keep me distracted, lest i have an episode where i convince myself i'm being swarmed in my own bed.

Strangely enough, the same phobia doesn't transfer to arachnids. I haven't before, but i think i could let a (non-poisonous) tarantula crawl on me without a problem (in fact, that sounds like a welcome respite from all this talk of bugs). I'm even cool with scorpions, besides that whole stinger thing they've got going on. I can't say the same for bees and wasps, though.

I have an insane phobia towards heat, coming from a condition in my genes that makes my body temperature lower. Thus, something that for you might just be under burning temperature feels like it burns to me.


Cruel irony? I'm a Spaniard. And I have to work all damn day long in the sun.

I have a kind of empathic vertigo, where I can't stand seeing somebody going near a high drop.
Also, normal vertigo, but I like to think that's normal.

Going outside and/or talking to strangers. It's kinda gotten out of hand, I should get to fixing that. I've quit jobs over it :L

In a less serious sense, then doctors, surgeries, anything hospital related. Just creeps me out.
Amen to that. My TV pretty much serves as WILSONNNNN! for me.

I have a couple of odd neuroses, especially in the washroom. For instance I have to use a multiple of four pieces of toilet paper. And I cannot, cannot touch *any* surface of a public bathroom with my palms or fingers; I use my knuckles mostly.

Other people generally to be honest. I'm always scared of hidden intentions and I get paranoid that they're going to screw me over. It increases the more close I am to someone, probably partly because I feel more vulnerable to being screwed over.

Edit: Oh, and I'm scared of my own intentions as well generally. Like, now, I feel really into this girl, but I feel like I'm going to fuck it up and I feel like I want to date her just so I can use her. It's weird as hell.

I hate the feeling of Chalk, Dust, or dirt on my fingers and in my finger nails. It's not that I avoid getting my hands dirty but if I know I have to work with Chalk I shudder. Maybe the feeling of putting my nails on a Chalk board?

Sandwiches. I've hated them since I was like, three.

I suffer from severe paranoia when it comes to bellybuttons, too. I feel like mine is going to untie or something and my guts are going to spill out.

You should play Silent Hill then. It should creep you the fuck out.
