Is anyone here phobic of anything? I recently read an article in the paper which had people with the weirdest phobias; from bedsprings to windows! I found this very interesting because most people are phobic of confined spaces or insects or animals!

Aracnaphobia...to a degree...only the big ones...that look...mean...

That, and I really do not like the feeling of getting stuck. I can live with tight spaces...but when I get stuck in one...I may panic...especially if I cannot move and a big spider is seen!!!

I'm a tiny bit claustraphobic - Don't mind being in a confined space unless I'm crawling (caving or laying network cables under houses) strange eh!

I agree with Larry. Spiders give me the creeps! Not all of them mind you, just ones that are about two to three inches in diameter, black colored, or the horrid tiger stripes, that make webs right where your head passes through in a doorway, that are quick as lightning. Yikes!!!! That is the creepiest part to me, their speed!.. They could run up your body and burrow and hide underneath your clothing within seconds! AAAAAHHHHH!

Get it off me! Get it off me! Oh... sorry... really bad flashback there, I'm OK now, carry on...

LOL!
I LOVE SPIDERS!

I dont know if anything I have could be strong enough to be considered a phobia but I hate fish. I hate swimming in the sea (you never know what you might step on, not to mention that whole Jaws thing ).. and yet I love swimming. Im a wierd guy [img]smile.gif[/img]
I dont get claustrophobic because I'm strangely at home in confined spaces..
I dont know if I think of anything else I'm shit-scared of I'll come back.. hrmmmm..
