I'll second LeQuack but I don't do bugs or heights very well Mice I don't care about, snakes are cool - let me see a flea on my cat or a spider on the wall and I go bonkers
Hudson wrote.. Anything that looks like a lotus seed pod, those crazy frogs with the holes in their backs that their young live in... it's horrible. Destroy it all. Now you got me thinking about these bloody frogs.. Disgusting..and No i don't want a picture.. phobias oh yeah.. Having a spider crawl in my mouth when im fast asleep with my mouth wide open..
Spiders..deathly afraid! Tinnitus of corse or just of it getting worse.. Crowded and clustered small places i get panicky cause of my anxiety.. Lately loud noise even though it doesnt hurt my ears i still try and protect them.. Doesnt help when im at work everyday and always SOMEONE drops a big metal pan on the floor and scares the shit ouuta me.. So far so good tho lol
I am claustrophobic and HATE being locked in tiny places. Hate lifts - I am practically holding my breath until the door opens back up; I also don't like toilets that I can't get out of. Airplane toilets are the worst. I can't STAND being in them and have to have someone else stand outside to make sure I am okay.
COCKROACHES OH GOD IT'S LIKE SATAN'S LITTLE MINIONS LMAO! Also snakes, snakes are pretty scary and disgusting in my opinion.
I have something called selachophobia. Just looked it up It's a fear of sharks. I think I saw jaws when I was too young. It's a fearful fascination.. And I tried to overcome it once by swimming in a reef shark area. Saw two of them, got terrified and almost ran out of the water. I'll never do that again.
I am claustrophobic. Cannot ever drive through/ under a tunnel, must always drive the long way around. Cannot go in the loop when going on a train. Also the fear of getting old and not being there for my children.
My sister is claustrophobic...Mine is spiders haha. Sorry to hear she suffers, hope she gets better. And yeah, heights are scary!
The closest thing I have to a phobia is the fear of going to bed at night because I have to remove my implant and I have a fear of putting on my cochlear implant. Bear with me. I can deal with spiders, heights (no bungy jumping these days but it would be fun), snakes, rats, and etc. But going to bed means removing my cochlear implant and being semi-crushed with tinnitus + the discomfort from the odd but necessary way the implant was surgically screwed into my head with the other crap that had to be atypically done as a result of the surgery. It ties into my being not at ease putting the implant on (uses a couple of small magnets) because over a short period of time, the pain level (it is not discomfort but pain) grows tremendously. I had it off for 3/4 of waking hours yesterday ... couldn't tolerate it anymore. This meant blasting tinnitus. Knowing pain will happen that's not preventable = fear and phobia. I don't obsess about this and I have no fear of anything else. Call this strange phobias (an irrational fear ... these really aren't irrational) and it's out of the ordinary but, so am I.
I used to have spider phobia ... as an 8 year old they put me on retaline ... it gave me phobias and also I started to see shadows on the walls in my room ... pretty crazy stuff ... i would get into catatonic states when I saw spiders as a kid. Now it`s all over - i pick up a huntsman with my hands ... But i`m starting to develop a bit of agoraphobia at the moment ... get very uneasy in public spaces - but that is linked to my tinnitus because i just can not escape inside myself from the massive amount of sensory input.
I hate escalators... Going down is doable.. Up forget it...I have to have someone behind me.. I feel like I am going to fall backwards....Driving down steep hills bothers me also...we just retired to Tennessee from flat Michigan and driving here is very stressful for me...also have agoraphobia... Wide open spaces make me feel off balance, like a big empty building or say a gym standing in the middle...If I have something to hold onto it's better...I get a shopping cart even If I get two items in stores...my tinnitus is loud buzzing and high pitched... It is very debilitating to feel this way...
Government. Getting a letter from the state or federal government causes me to break out in cold chills and I get very anxious. Also, crowds. I've never felt comfortable in large gatherings. I'm a hermit at heart--it seems to run in my family. We'd all be recluses if it was possible. It's not, of course, I have to go to work and I have to be with people but I'm happiest with my spouse, family and close friends--but not all together.
Horses. I got kicked when I was a kid and have been scared s!&tless of them ever since. I always think they're going to attack me and feel totally out of control when I ride them. Which I rarely do. Oh and I'm phobic about that horrible test ENTs do when they snake that incredibly long scope up your nose and down your throat. I have to take a Xanax before I'll let them near me.
