What do you fear?

[Bozos of Bones]

Nothing, and I mean nothing freaks me out more than spiders. Arachnophobia I guess, but when I see a meaty little eight-legger with the little hairs an the butt and when it's coming towards me, slowly, not fast, I somehow just freeze. I know that if I squish it, it will no longer come at me, be no threat(altho it isn't) but I just can't bring myself to do it. Dogs, wolves, snakes and all the other stuff I feel completely fine when around, not jittery, scared or anything, but spiders turn my blood cold.

Better watch that temper. It may land you in more trouble than you can handle. [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

Erm... mild arachnophobia I guess... I don't freak out or anything... And I could touch or hold them if necessary I think... Just if I see one on the desk or wall or somewhere... I have to watch it... until I either kill it (though I don't really like doing that...) or I or it move far enough away...

Knowledge is power they say, so just why would I want to let potential adversaries know my weaknesses?

But seriously, I have this weird fear of heights where I'm compelled to stand/sit/lie down really close to the edge of a really high, sheer drop and look down at the bottom. A nudge or even a change in wind could send me plunging to my death, that's how close a look I take at it. Just begs the question, am I facing my fears, or do I have some kind of death wish?

I have a fear of not being there to protect my children and my wife. Its probably a form of paranoia...but for example I'll worry that if I move too far away from my toddler and he's too close to the curb in the front yard, that he might run into the street and be hit by a car.

Everytime I hear of an accident on the radio traffic reports that's on the highway my wife takes home from work, I worry that its her and the boys.

Every time the cats run around like horses downstairs in the middle of the night, I worry whether it really is the cats or is someone breaking in...which usually drives me to get up and check the whole house.

I'm scared of hurting people, I guess. I'd rather not, anyways.
This reminds me of a good joke, though.
Girlfriend asks this guy what he's afraid of:
B/F: I dunno, what are you most afraid of?
G/F: That you'll find someone better, and leave me alone...! What are you most afraid of?
B/F: (Instantaneously) Bears...
LMAO!!

Fears? Wasps... Nightmares. I hate nightmares, even the ones you have a vague control over. Because... They ruin the day for you. I have a fear of asteroids crashing into earth and volcanoes, due to a nightmare... And 'Life Support Machines'. Another nightmare caused phobia. Drowning... Dying helplessly, being under too much pressure - physically or mentally. Needles... Confusion, frustration and not being able to do anything about it (Helplessness again). Being autistic, I hate being 'in the dark' in important social situations.

Oh, and whenever I am close to an edge high from the ground... I get this overwhelming urge to... JUMP! JUMP LASS JUMP!!!! *Shivers*
