Heights, I can be completely frozen with fear when I see I'm in high places.

I'm scared of commitment, and illnesses, especially cancer.

If you by fear mean phobia, then I'm not really afraid of anything, just cautious around potential dangers.

If we mean fear by phobia, and you think you are immune, check this site:

http://www.phobialist.com/index.html

That site amused me for hours, and they are all real phobias, medical terms for fear. Look up this one, Arachibutyrophobia. =D

I don't 'hate' spiders, but I sure as hell don't like them that much. A couple of years ago I almost always freaked out when a spider was near (didn't want to remove it myself and called in my dad [img]tongue.gif[/img] ) but at some point I thought to myself "come on dude, don't be such a wuss" and that's how I came over that particular fear.

Now I'm not too scared of them anymore [img]smile.gif[/img]

Okay, people, I voted spiders, but I AM phobic of one thing that wasn't on the list, which encouraged me to vote spiders, and that is being BITTEN. Even thinking about it makes me quesy and I hunch up my shoulders and shiver and wiggle my toes. I mean, the thought of any animal sinking its fangs into my flesh makes me shiver, and spiders seem particularly likely o do that...I was watching the Discovery channel one night and they talked about a spider in New Zealand that could bite THROUGH a person's toenail, and then they had a "dramatic reinaction" of a women putting on a shoe containing one of those buggers!! AHHHHHHHHH!(shudders)

Oh, and P2K, I'm hairy! Be afraid!

I'm not afraid of spiders, they just give me a chill...like needles [img]smile.gif[/img]

I'm afraid of tight spaces especially if it's in much height, at work I once had to climb a 13 meter tall ladder and get pack of insulations from a shelf (I was working in a factory) and it was very frightening.

Also like you might have noticed in GD... I hate pblic speaking... [img]smile.gif[/img]
