Fears and phobias

We're all scared of something...

Don't worry about joining this group, it's nothing to be scared of.
We all have them - fears, justified or not, of reasonable or silly things.
Share and explain your fears and you may find that you are not alone - whether it be the usual fear of spiders, heights, enclosed or open spaces, mice, cats, dogs, birds - or maybe the less common fears of clowns, buttons, feathers, feet (ok, I'm not scared of feet, I just don't like them); whatever it is that sends shivers up or down your spine, this is the place to let it all out.
If you know the technical term for these phobias or fears, tell us - we can learn a new one every day!
If you know what started your fear or when it began, give us the details - it may help us to understand it and you to overcome it.
You never know, we may be able to offer some advice. If we can't, then at least we'll feel a bit better knowing that there's someone out there more scared than we are.

I'm afraid of failing my kids.

sometimes get lost in my own thoughts.

I try though, but yeah, that's a fear...

I'm afraid of mirrors in the dark. When I was in elementary school, everyone said the bathroom was haunted and you could see "Bloody Mary" in the mirror. Okay, I've never gotten over that. I'm afraid I'm going to see something in the mirror that's not supposed to be there. God, I'm such a baby!

I thought for the longest time I would die today.
I know that sounds weird & macbre, but in late August I think it was, I was looking in my planner & all of a sudden I was like, "ohmyshite. I think I'm going to die on 20 September."

Don't ask why.
Anywho.
I told Flea & she couldn't stop laughing.
She just looked at me & said, "If you die, can I have that statue of yours I really want?"

O_o.
I get no sympathy anywhere, aha.

........& I have no idea why I just posted that for the world to see. :/

when I was a small child, I was afraid of Halloween masks, all kinds of scary ones.
When my mom would take us to this certain grocery store, I always had that sixth sense that I knew where we were and that those damn masks would be there.
Of course I would start freaking out and get all squirmy.

When I was about 15 or sommat, I wouldn't sleep with my back to the window. I was scared out of my mind that someone would come in and rape me. Seriously, & when I did turn over & fall asleep, I had a full length mirror on my wall so I could see the window in the reflection.."just in case."

Luckily I've gotten over that..

I was going to post this in my Savage Chickens group but it reminded me of how when I get a really bad headache or my vision goes blurry, that I have a brain tumour and I'm going to die:



joking aside - it really does worry me.
