I was scared of dogs until I was about 16. Fairly straight-forward, since I was bitten by one at a young age.

Right now... I have the wonderful combination of a fear of making phone calls, and having to ask people things (more or less. It isn't so easy to define exactly what these two fears actually are, but they're pretty messed up when then they happen to me.)

Needless to say, for such 'small' problems, they really mess up my life.
Any guesses as to which fairly critical activity most frequently causes trouble?
If you said job hunting, you get a cookie. But unfortunately, you can add to that list (at various times in my life), shopping, ordering takeout, making a doctor's appointment... Etc.

Yay for stupid problems that completely ruin your life...

I used to have a phobia of needles, but that was before I had to get surgery which forced me to have about 6 in a row.

Did you know all phobias and fears are linked in someway to death or Necrophobia and once you don't fear death then you won't fear anything.

Fear of being in buildings with great heights to the ceiling, like plane museums and stuff, I just can't take the big rooms.

I used to be afraid of heights, but after i started skiing i got over it
now what i'm scared of is those syringes, when my mom was trying to use one to burst and infection on my toe i was whining and running away from her
If that whole ordeal was on youtube, it would get a lot of views

I'm afraid of heights to a certain degree. I don't panic out like some people do (I've seen that shit, not funny I tell you), but when I look down a ledge it just feels some force grabs me and tries to pull me, it feels very hypnotic. There is a certain word for "a little acrophobia" but I don't know what that's called in English.

In alphabetic order;

Agoraphobia (Fear of open spaces or of being in crowded, public places)
Anthropophobia (Fear of people or society) *Partly linked to my Angliophobia
Aphenphosmphobia (Fear of being touched) *Partly linked to my Angliophobia
Atychiphobia (Fear of failure)
Catagelophobia (Fear of being ridiculed)
Gelotophobia (Fear of being laughed at)
Katagelophobia (Fear of ridicule)
Ophthalmophobia (Fear of being stared at)
Rhabdophobia (Fear of being severely punished or beaten by a rod, or of being severely criticized.)
I'd say most or all these are because of the Social Phobia, rather than specific conditions.
Do you have these diagnosed?
No, but I experiance most of them daily. Plus I can link most, if not all, of these to previous events in my life.

I seriously don't like the dark. It really fucking scares me. Like a ton. I can finally walk through a dark house without throwing on lights if I have to, and know I sleep without a light, but it still scares me some. I suppose it's irrational to say the least, but something about darkness really gets me.

I fear having my arm on fire while being attacked by flying spider-clowns
(YOU'D BE SCARED, TOO!)

I also fear having BO while in health class (I sometimes have gym before health and I keep forgetting to bring my own and to ask people before they leave.)

I also fear transformers 3 and remakes of old movies which where good before they where made into 70% cg movies (stop making more!)

I also fear having underwear getting stuck on my sweatshirt (seriously, I check before I leave in the morning and in my third class of the day.)

Lastly, I fear the forest behind my house at night when I am taking the garbage out (If I am not taking the garbage out and/or it's not night I am ok.)
