Do you have any Phobias?

I am absolutely terrified of snakes, can't even look at a picture of one without breaking out in a sweat.
 
Spiders and driving over big bridges - if I'm the passenger I'm alright, but I won't drive over them myself. Especially over water. :eek:

OMG! I've just cancelled our trip to Jamaica LOL! ;)


Can someone tell me what Carnies are????? :confused:
 

I don't have phobias, as in not able to look at pictures and such. But I don't like spiders, and mosquitos turn me into a raving lunatic. They love me and I make it my mission to make sure there are none in the house. And I know when they're there. I'll hear that little buzzing noise in my ear. :mad:
 
I am TERRIFIED of closed spaces!!!! I hate elevators and airplanes and anything else where I think I'm going to lose air. I also greaty dislike the sight of bugs especially those spiders...ya know in Indiana Jones when they go into the tunnel and see all the bugs, I think I would have had a heart attack and just died, but first would have ran out of the tunnel cause ewwww, wouldn't want them crawling on me after I'm lying there. (I'm pretty weak)
 
Fire.. (Isn't that a hoot with my DH setting himself ablaze while smoking with the oxygen on??)

Drowning..

Rats..

Having anything over my face - or being in a very small closed up area where I feel like I can't breathe.. (Like if I had to crawl under my bed to get something..)
 
Closed in places for the most part. An MRI machine in particular. I yelled for them to get me out! Needless to say, my appointment was rescheduled and the doc prescribed Xanax to take ahead of time.

Elevators.

I have a fear of being trapped in a car that is going under water. My parents recently got me the escape hammer!!!
[color=0066ff]I'm terrified of drowning and that is one of my biggest fears. Once my mom and I were in rush hour traffic going across a bridge and it took everything in me not to freak.
I'm also claustrophobic and so I'm scared of suffocating.[/color]
 
HEIGHTS!!!! :eek: :eek:

...which in turn leads to a great dislike for:
~ Elevators
~ Flying
~ Suspension Bridges

:(
 
Well, I think I am stranger than all of you. I can handle spiders, snakes, heights, bridges, et al but the one thing I am terrified of is .... snails!!! And they know it. Sometimes I will open my front door and one will be stuck to it, sending me screaming into the house (I never see them on anyone else's door, just mine). My son thinks it's hilarious and gladly removes them for me (for a fee). Have no idea where this phobia came from but it makes me mad and I keep telling myself I will get over it but I don't. I have a close friend who is afraid of wood...I have to remove the little toothpicks from her sandwiches and if you want to see her really freak out, take a wooden spoon out of the drawer.

People are sooooo funny!

I laughed so hard when I saw this tears are still rolling down my cheek:teeth: :teeth: :teeth: I feel the same way I avoid carnivals at all cost.
 
Roaches (the worst - one of the main reasons I moved out of Florida. When I'm going to Florida I worry about maybe I'll see one, maybe one will get in my suitcase and come home with me, etc. Its pretty bad!)

Grasshoppers

Heights - no roller coasters for me!

The bridges that open up in the middle for tall boats to pass through. I have had a TON of nightmares in my lifetime of driving over them, not being able to stop and they are open, etc. Avoided them by leaving Florida too! (I'm sick I know...)

Going to the doctor & dentist (maybe not a total phobia but I put it off as long as humanly possible)!
 
I've just about overcome my phobia regarding dentists. My biggest phobia now is snakes. I can't even look at a photo of a snake :(

I have no desire to seek treatment for this either.

LOL! That's too much. I get plenty of snails on my windows. They look pretty gross, but they won't hurt me.

Snakes...and

<font size=7>Those STUPID HIGH RISE Bypasses- intersection
in the middle of every "frickin' FRIG" intersection in every major city!!!!!!!</font>

I swear, they're at least a half a mile HIGH!!!!:( :( :(
(and you always have someone behind you who wants to go 75 mph!)


BTW...about 12 years ago, I DID have an accident on one of these,
and I've NEVER been the same since!:eek:


And I love Space Mtn, ToT, RnR, etc....
