also, police. yes its cops. i dont know why. ive never done anything That bad in my life. but three times in the past week a cop would follow me on the road and i would have a full blown panic attack. on one of these times i had to pull over and catch my breath it was so bad. i saw one come in where i work the other day and i froze on the spot, i couldnt even speak of move anything. after the cop left i just stood there until a coworker touched me on the shoulder and scared the crap out of me. i had to go to the restroom and sit for a while to cool down.

its weird.

I'll bet no one else has this fear

Owls... They scare me, with their big eyes and turning heads.

When I was a kid I actually had a nightmare of the owl from Mr. Dressup. You know, the owl that was a painting but was "alive". At first it looks like its sleeping but when Mr Dressup talks to it its eyes freaking open! That was scary to me when I was 5! Its not a major fear i have, its just the weirdest.

I'd have to say my biggest fear is loneliness, I don't like doing things alone, even simple things like shopping, or even going out to eat. Hell I don't even like working by myself.

How is it that no one has mentioned nuclear bombs? I mean, they're NUCLEAR BOMBS, people!

Maybe it's just me, but I've had recurring nightmares of nuclear devastation, mushroom clouds, fallout shelters, radiation poisoning, and just general nuclear bomb terror all my life.

Also centipedes. Seriously, they're just little fucking monsters from hell with an unholy quantity of legs. FUCK THEM.

Ticks. Me and my cousin went out into the woods to do some filming. When I came back, we found ticks all over our body, I found one in the most terrible place as well. I flip out every time I see a tick.

You all have no idea how much I want to gather boxes of insects, needles and throw half of you in a amall room surrounded my stairs with no lights whatsoever and place the rest on a cliff fifty feet above ground with maybe a zombie or two... thousand and a couple clowns. :p

Yeah, I have a tendency to exploit people's fears to an extent just to see the reaction. Granted I never go too far or if someone is deathly afraid of something I'm likely not to bring it up. I may like to tease but even I'm not that jerk.

Anuhow gess it's my turn; strangely enough I have outgrown all the common and even weird fears I once had. I use to have a decent fear of zombies and horror movies. I think I was 12 or so when I watched Resident Evil and it scared me for days, which started me sleeping with the TV on at night... a habit I still haven't shaken.

However over the years I convinced myself it was pointless to fear something that basically meant "you are fucking doomed if it exists." The problem I have is my imagination is so incredibly vivid it can create an exact design of anything. I've been wide awake and my mind has created what seems like a zombie walking toward me every so slowly... detailed to the very core. When you're mind has done that with people you know (mother once even) it can really creep you out; although like I said I ignore it now. Still one of the main reasons I avoid horror movies but I'm far from afraid of them these days. Amusingly enough I spend most of my time surrounded my darkness as I have a weird dislike of the sun and prefer only a little light.

Not afraid but generally uncomfortable around insects.

My biggest fear however would be living a life of mediocrity, amounting to absolutely nothing in life. I once had a brief dream of my life in this type of scenario (ten years ahead) and it shot me awake instantly. First time I've ever in my life been woken up by a nightmare. I'll also admit when I cannot analyze something (like my future) I tend to get anxious.

I have a fear of my throat closing over and suffocating.

Also, of being being dependent on medication or stuck in a hospital.

I have a strange, irrational fear of people touching my belly button. It just feels like they're actually poking inside me, it is not nice.

Needles. Not sure what it's called, but I nearly (unintentionally, believe me - it was purely reflexive) knocked a doctor unconscious when he tried to take blood.

I've since manned up by forcing myself to watch each and every injection I got. So, while I certainly don't enjoy the damn things, I can at least get them without flipping out.

I may sound like a freak for this but... I get scared (well, feel really uncomfortable) when I zoom into the middle of the ocean on Google Earth etc.

I'm afraid of horses. Very afraid. I guess it could be called hippophobia or some crap like that.
I'm also afraid of Zombies and of calling my teacher on the phone. I have no idea about the phone thing. I'm just afraid of it.

While not quite a fear, salamanders creep me out big time. They are the most disgusting things ever!

My only weird fear concerns Courage the Cowardly Dog, remember that show? There was this one episode that had a giant, glowing white, live action head whose eyes and mouth were completely black and it just suddenly appeared on the screen with no warning. That is the scariest goddamn thing I have ever seen in my life, no matter what anybody says.I won't even watch the opening of the show anymore because there's a chance Mr. Head could pop up.
Holy shit, I remember that show. I was always freaked out by "Retuuuurn the slaaaab... Or suffer my cuuurse..."

Anyway, I was terrified of theme park mascots as a kid. The guys in the big cartoon animal suits. And since their job was to go around and hug children, I became extremely nervous whenever one was near, and tried to hide myself behind the nearest pant leg.

More recently though, roller coasters. I am deathly afraid of roller coasters. If I somehow get forced to ride one, the wait is usually just as bad as the ride itself. The anticipation causes more nausea for me than the actual ride. Which isn't to say that I don't absolutley scream like a girl when I'm riding the thing.

I just realized both of my fears involve theme parks. No wonder I don't go there very often.
