Phobias

Well I have an irrational fear of hiccups, not in the way you might think. Like I've heard stories of people who get the hiccups for like extremely long amounts of time, about up to two years! And as soon as I get the hiccups I'm certain that I am going to be the next victim for them, living my life with tiny burps that take every piece of sanity.

Another thing, I don't know if it qualifies for this, but I am extremely scared of getting skin cancer from not using any sun block. Again, I hear stories of people having to get chunks of flesh taken out and other unpleasant treatments. So every time I go swimming, to the beach, or just an outdoors day, it is SPF 50 sunblock every 2 hours.
 
ive never had any real problems with fear but last time i blazed i had the worst panic attack ever..
 
I get panic attacks when I'm driving and by some chance I'm in the middle of a 3 lane road and two people are on both sides of me. It freaks me out so bad, and it doesn't even matter if I'm driving or not, I'll get freaked out if someone else is driving.

I also get really afraid if there's a ton of people around me and I get claustraphobic.
And once my boyfriend was trying to tickle me so he sat on me and held my arms down and it scared me to death to where I almost cried.. It was weird :/

yeah i get the people claustrophobic feeling too


i also have arachnophobia and a fear of heights. and i faint whenever i see a lot of blood. :/
 
Bugs. I'm okay with some, like butterflies or moths or lady bugs, but others just give me panic attacks. I'm too freaked out by them to even kill them. ;-; Recently we had an ant infestation on our kitchen counter, and it freaked me out so much that I refused to eat anything made on it for a while. I made all the food that didn't require a stove or oven on the kitchen table. Just the other day, while changing my room a little, I went to the closet in my mom's office to grab a lamp and there was a giant fake spider behind it (it was one of those arts and crafts projects kids make at school, made from a black foam ball with those fuzzy tubes for legs—trust me, doesn't really even look like a spider), and even that freaked me out and made me yelp. I had to wait a while before finally gaining the courage to grab the lamp and run to my room. ;-;

I don't know what I'll do when I move out on my own; I think my phobia is really severe. In college, I really hope I have a roommate who isn't afraid of bugs like me.
 
Heights (love rollercoasters though<33), insects (oh god the butterflies horrible face ogod ogod).
 
I have a fear of exploding microwaves. Really, I do. I know it's weird, but every time I put popcorn or something bigger than pizza in the microwave, I move away from it for fear it shall explode. D:
 
I have a fear of certain types of butterflies.I am perfectly okay with normal butterflies, it's the one's that look like that they have eyes on the ends of their wings that really creep me out.

Katsaridaphobia- is a fear of cockroaches
Potophobia- is the fear of alcohol
Pharmacophobia- is the Fear of drugs
Verminophobia- Fear of germs

and that's pretty much it.
 
Fear of being in open water alone. And fear of sharks and other big fish. And just so ya know. Dont go skinnydipping in some parts of this state if you have this fear. Hahaha because these fish have been known to attack peoples "man parts"... :p HAHAHA!

I have quite a few: heights (went up to the St. Louis Arch and just about died), needles (very mild), being buried alive (it comes and goes), dead butterflies (just seeing a dead one makes me flip out), and the fear of throwing up (I haven't thrown up since third grade).
And I'm not sure if it's really a fear, but sometimes I get into this "way" and being left alone suddenly freaks me out.
 
The only thing that scares me is the small chance that I'll live my life without doing what I want to do in the future.
 
I can't stand being up too high. I get dizzy, and I feel that if I even stray too close to the edge, I'll fall over.
