What's Your Biggest Fear?

[cheezMcNASTY]

I have lots of fears, but moths are definitely my biggest. Here are fears that I have that I can think of right now (in no particular order):

Mottephobia- Fear of Moths.
Hydrophobia- Fear of Water.
Pyrophobia- Fear of Fire.
(Don't know the name of it)- Fear of Escalators.
(Don't know the name of it)- Fear of Fireworks.
Thanatophobia- Fear of Death.
Coulrophobia- Fear of Clowns.
(Don't know the name of it)- Fear of talking in front of large groups of people.
Dentophobia- Fear of Dentists.
Belonephobia- Fear of Needles.
Sinistrophobia- Fear of Left-Handed things or objects to the left side of the body.
Duotriophobia- Fear of the number 23.
BearsinRedDeadRedemptionophobia- Fear of the Bears in Red Ded Redemption (Traumatizing experience xD).

Yeah, i'm easily scared by a lot of things :L.

are you sure it's not just an phobia adapted form of cyberchondria? because some of those thing are extremely common fears among people, kind of erasing the "irrational" aspect. especially dentists, needles, death, fire, or water (if you can't swim). i know TONS of people who fall into all of those categories, they seem almost like the norm.

Well, some are irrational, but there are some for which I have reasons. Water, because I almost drowned, escalators, because I got my shoelace stuck in one and feared I was going to be sucked into the mechanism and killed (I was 9, okay?! :L) and fire because, well, I got burned :L. But I doubt it's cyberchondria, or any specific form of it.

that still leaves needles, dentists, and clowns. clowns don't realize that they look horrifying to a child, and are ironically geared towards entertaining their most fearful target age group. everyone hates/is scared of clowns in one form or another.

everyone is either scared of or hates the dentist. it's pain that everyone (with decent dental hygiene) experiences at an early age and associates with the dentist. needles....shots. need i say more? i wouldn't call any of those irrational unless you literally were petrified by seeing a needle, dentist, or clown. if they make you uncomfortable, even if if slightly excessive, i don't think you should have to call it a phobia.

do you feel a bit more fearless?

 

[MissAlbion89]

They don't make me uncomfortable, they actually really scare me. My friends made me watch the movie "It". Not good times for me :L. And we had to get injections in school last year, three HPV ones (to protect us against cervical cancer), and a booster for stuff like Diphtheria and Polio, etc. I honestly felt like I was going to faint. But dentists, i'm not actually too bad with anymore, but it sucks that they don't still give you stickers like they did when I was younger :L.

Well, it's not actually left-handed people, that's just the description it gave me. It's more left in general :/.

Yeah, I got that. I tried to make a joke. xD
Oh well...

Hm, my biggest fear... can't think of anything particular at the moment. Doesn't mean I dot have one, though; I just don't know what my biggest fear is. >_>

 

[MissAlbion89]

I can be really dumb at times xD. Hmm, we're going to have to figure out what it is .

 

[SelfAppointedGunslinger]

My body goes paralyzed when I'm lying in bed sometimes, that gets Me pretty scared.

 

[Shirosaki]

I use to get drowned by my teacher

Your teacher is a serial killer? More importantly, how did you keep coming back to life!?

Lately, I've been nervous about going to sleep and not waking up.

Dying? If you never woke up, how would you know that you are asleep? That you were ever alive? Are you alive?

 

[HobbeBrain]

Like Cheez, I have [FONT=%value]Ichthyophobia. Fish creep me out, dude. Also, I have a fear of Clowns, I don't know if that has a scientific name. And the dark, but only in a place I'm unfamiliar with.[/FONT]

[quote="Skorm's Boss, post: 438540"I'm claustrophobic[/quote]

Oh yes. I am also *sigh* mildly claustrophobic. Not that bad, but I really freak out when I go in a lift. Four phobias... it's not looking good for Hobbsey
