Hey. I was just wondering if anyone had any real phobias. I have two: Belonephobia (the fear if pins and needles), Claustrophobia (fear of tight places), and grasshoppers... I don't remember what that's called. And they are real. I went a psychiatrist for the pins and needle one.

i dont like big crickets. i get an infestation of them in the downstairs of my house for about a week every summer/fall, but they usually come out at night. once it hits 10:00, you cant stay downstairs in my house anymore during those moments. theyre like frogs, except bug. you get close enough to one and it fucking teleports, it jumps so fast and far.

Death and heights. Others I'm still quite comfortable with them, but not necessary means i like them... like bugs... >_>

I have a mild phobia of spiders and of drowning. Heights make me a little dizzy, but it's not too bad.

Agreed. But I like spiders. Nothing against'em.

But I can't stand roaches. I kill evey one I see.

The Fear of Blood Tends to Create The Fear of Flesh

Heights and spiders, although not so much now.

My wife: teh roaches. Makes me kill 'em all, even if they're really tiny.

I get really nervous around agressive dogs, but I love soft and fluffy ones. That seems more like a rational fear, come to think of it...

Uh, I'm kinda scared of zombies, but that's pretty rational too! If you met one, would you be freaked the heck out?

I have a defective fear of blood. I call it defective because it doesn't always work, and it's not exactly a fear. I get lightheaded when I see something gruesome or when I cut myself slightly... sometimes. To be honest, I don't really know what sets it off. A doctor once told me the name of the thing I have (can't remember it) and said that there's nothing I can do about it. There's no face-your-fear cure for it. Interestingly enough, once I've seen something that's made me want to pass out and "survived" it, seeing it again will have no effect on me.

I've got a mild case of arachnophobia
but i may have an extreme in phobia of being in a place that has absolutely no ventialation, or movement of air. it's not exactly claustrophobia, even though being in a tight space without ventilation would probably make me destroy that room and everything around in reach with my hands, but it just gives me a feeling that i'm choking on or drowning in the non-moving air.

Lets see... I am afraid of heights, (whatever you call it), and I am bothered by insects and other vermin.
