• Guest, you're invited to help build our new TBT time capsule! It contains three parts, with some of its elements planned to open in 2029 and others not until the distant future of 2034. Get started in 2024 Community Time Capsule: Blueprints.

Fears?

Small spaces- I am ridiculously claustrophobic. Even being in a crowd with people being to close to me scares me so much I break down.

Bugs- I am terrified of all bugs. If I see one I can't help running away I feel sick and start tearing up because I am that frightened of them.

Public speaking/ phone calls/ talking to new people- All of these make me feel like I can't breathe and just no. I try to avoid these as much as possible.
 
Insects and anything insect-like. I had a mental breakdown after a fly landed on me a few years ago. >_>

Water. I drowned (not drowned to death, just drowned) when I was 6 or 7 and I've been afraid of water since.

Heights. I don't know why I'm scared of heights, to be honest. I'm just so terrified of being in high places.
 
Bugs. Especially spiders and maggots. Moths freak me out with their spastic movements.

Heights.

Water. I can't swim and while I'm trying to learn I just feel like the water is suffocating me and I can't do it.

Social Situations. More of an anxiety thing, but yeah. Especially speaking to crowds or new people or asking a question or calling on the phone or...uh, etc etc. Not as bad as it used to be, thankfully!
 
Free falling - I've had bad dreams about this and it's always lead to me waking up unpleasantly. I guess there's a sort of panic if I don't have a parachute or wings or something to save me.

Mariana Trench - The fact that this is the deepest point in the ocean freaks me out. I'm not the world's best swimmer by any means so if anyone brings this up I end up thinking about drowning in it. ...deep water just really scares me.

Bugs - Super typical but pretty real. There was a cockroach in my bathroom once and I screamed like hell. Also, big moths that are "furry" or have super complex patterns on their wings creep me out too.
 
failing in school/not going anywhere

much pain

and.....
bein' diagnosed with something tht cant b cured
 
Public speaking/ phone calls/ talking to new people- All of these make me feel like I can't breathe and just no. I try to avoid these as much as possible.

That's a pretty pretty common fear, I remember a girl fainting on-stage during a school act. Hopefully, time improves those difficulties.

3) Roaches

Ahh, Roaches, I feel a mix of fear and hatred for them, such disgusting creatures... I know I'm being a bad person for saying that, but I just don't like them.

My fear pretty much just revolve around spiders and roaches... If I find a roach I can't deal with it, they are just the most disgusting thing on the planet to me. Certain spiders freak me out, not the daddy long leg ones though as they are so harmless or the tiny little spiders that are out on my porch. The ones that scare me are the bigger brown ones, some of them can even jump and they are so fast it is terrifying. I found one in my garage before and I had no shoes on when I found it so I was freaked out about what to do, so scary...

I also get bad anxiety whenever I go to the dentist or doctors. I know they're supposed to be there to help me, but I always think of them as evil lol. I always fear something will be wrong and I need to get a shot or a tooth pulled. Plus I just don't like the while atmosphere of the dentist or doctor office as they make it seem harmless, he that just makes me feel more scarred then ever
 
1) Nuclear Warfare. The idea of complete destruction scares me. Being in London, I'd most likely be killed in a nuclear explosion :(
2) Terrorist attacks. Similar to above, living in a big city scares me a little, since there could be a terrorist attack near me.
3) Clowns. This feels a little weird placed under two serious things, but they freak me out.

I also have automatonophobia, the fear of anything that falsely represents a sentient being. Plush animals are fine, I have plenty of those. But if something almost resembles sentience but doesn't (ventriloquist dolls, for example) I get scared.
 
To be honest, I'm afraid of a lot of things (the dark, heights, being murdered, ect) but I think the thing I fear most is death. It's not death itself that I'm most worried about (since we all die anyways), but the fear of dying and being separated from my love ones permanently. The idea of losing conscious and never reuniting with anyone that I've loved is deeply unsettling.
 
In no particular order:
Spiders/Bugs... the only bugs I can stand are inchworms because they're too tiny to make out any real features. Even butterflies disgust me because when I was... 8ish?? my dad's friend gave me a book full of close up butterfly pictures. Like... why would you give that to a 8 year old wtf

The ocean... idk it's just so big and vast and scary things live in the deep lol

The... future... lol...
