It's like a combo of OCD and Phobia. I have heard of people being afraid of spheres before, actually. suprisingly, it was on an episode of that old MTV show "date my mom" where a person goes on a date with the mom of the person that they could potentially choose, to learn about that person. one of the moms told the guy that her daughter had this fear. he was freaked out by it. I think he chose another girl because of it, which just shows how shallow the MTV culture is (but that's off topic)

Oh, well I have a slight OCD, everything has to be the way I had it or I get mad. I get mad when my little brothers even take a step in my room or when people touch my things without permission. That's the reason why at the age of 14 I have more stress than some adults, I geuss I would fear having a heart-attack at my current age because of my stress. I have some annoying little bros.

I can't really think of any at the moment - except one.

Needles. I hate needles.

Oh, and math is something I fear aswell.

Math? I absolutely adore math....Much better than History....eeeew history

I'm afraid of Jellyfish, they creep me out so much with their tentacles and the scars they could leave. Death isn't that scary because I believe in reincarnation and we'll come back in another form.

I can't tell you how many times I've been stung by a Jellyfish. It is always in the crotch area too. But I never really liked them. But It isn't really a fear of mine. Although it is completely understandable to be scared of them. I can understand why.

not hights.. but falling of something really high, which is strange 'cause I used to love climbing stuff like buildings and trees.

Argh.. I hate being cliche, but.. I really do fear losing the people I love!

I also fear not being good enough for someone and disapointing certain people.

Phonophobia-Fear of Loud Noises

Enochlophobia/Demophobia- Fear of crowds

---------

Athazagoraphobia- Fear of being forgotton or ignored or forgetting.

Dishabiliophobia- Fear of undressing in front of someone.

Haptephobia- Fear of being touched.


The top half I am actualy diagnosed with, while the bottem are things that I may have, or think i could have.

Edit: i forgot one for the second list >_>

Gephysrophobia- Fear of crossing bridges.

reincarnation is something I think about all the time and it freaks me out that I may have been somehting else before this life and not know it, I wouldn't mind being reincarnated if I remembered my lives before. I mean I could've existed since the beginning of time, in my next life I might be a tortured animal and have no memory of this life.

Dolls. They remind me of little dead children with smiles on their faces. They freak the h*ll out of me. Oh, and for some reason, I am terrified at the thought of some giant thing (usually humanoid) crushing everything in its path. You can't escape something like that.

Memory is existence though, so if you can't remember it, it probably never existed/happened which is why I don't believe in reincarnation (That's the mortal way of looking at it, maybe there's a spiritual way but I don't see it (yet?) ).

I'm just afraid of death because I don't know what happens afterward, it's something I'm so anxious to know about. We fear death because it is something we don't ever experience, and when we do experience it, we're not conscious so we have absolutely no idea what it is like, we can't grasp the idea because it is so far out of reach, even in your wildest dreams you can't imagine it.

yeah but i have forgotten completely until other people reminded me of it. does that mean it didn't happen?

I fear of dying young, unnoticed, and unsignificant in the world. I have the most ambitious dream for people to remember me decades after I die...

I'm absolutley terrified of needles and gay guys (no offence to anybody that happens to be gay). I don't know why but they just creep me out. And about the needles, I don't know whats up with that. I can watch someone get their leg cut off without cringing but as soon as someone puts a needle in someone's body I flip.

I fear spiders. Just something about them just make we want to panic...

Losing my husband.

I had a fear of TV's for a few months after watching The Ring. Well, no. I only watched the first five minutes of the movie, but it was enough to grant me a fear of TV's for a while.

I have always had a fear of being buried alive, burned alive, or dying a slow and painful death as well. But that's normal.

Oh, and I had a fear of moths when I was little.

"Little" meaning "younger"; that's quite rational, in my opinion.

I'm afraid of severe heights, and darkness when in unfamiliar places.

Oh, and those freaky people that are scared of everything. Yeah, I have a fear of people with lots of irrational fears.

Homophobia is so gay.
