Yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I shall fear no evil, for I am the meanest *BLEEP* in the valley. Ok, ok, I'm a little creeped out by spiders. And maybe public speaking. I'd actually like to run for President, but standing in front of all those people makeing speachs would be a real gut twister. But seriously, there are some weird phobia's here.

Yeah I seen weird phobias, occasionally Muary would do a show about fears and I tell this if your afriad of jello and the way it wiggle you need to be in a white coat.

As for fears you could say depending on my mood these three fears are basically one in the same Gerascophobia, Chronophobia, and Thanatophobia.

Fear of getting old, fear of time, and fear of dying.

Individually they don't do anything to me but together they can really screw with my mind, and especially when I go through my bouts of depression they make me the weakest. Yeah I joke about getting old in the forums and stuff and to people I talk to MSN, but with the way my mind works its hard to beat it sometimes and it takes days for it to finally pass before I am back to normal (well normal for me that is)

And no waving a clock in my face won't do anything to get me going nor talking about it so don't bother trying .

Although I don't consider it a fear because I can when I need to an that is talk in front of groups, I dread doing it but sometimes miracles happen and I can get through it just fine.

Of course if I were to browse through this website on list of phobia's I bet I could connect a few more to my name.

I got one Postaphobia - fear of posting on forums

Yeah, I've noticed that I have a ridiculous fear. I joke about it a lot but it manages to ruin my life during Christmas times (when its shown on TV) and when I browse around in video game stores and DVD stores. My phobia is of Steven Spielberg's E.T. I can't help it, if I see it, even a small action figure or toy I freak out and in worst case scenarios I burst into tears, though thankfully it's getting better now, but I'm trying to conquer my fear :)

fears and stuff
Phobias

I have a terrible fear of needles/surrenges and scaple knives

Like just even people discussing about stabs or tiny cuts makes me get kind of sick to my stomach

In school, we were watching this movie about meth, and it kept showing them stabbing their arms with needles and I had to leave the room

I also have an extreme fear of ladders and ferris wheels
Like I'm not afraid to be on a tall building but for some reason I can't go near those two

Even those tiny kiddie ladders you use if you're short (like me) and I just FREAK out man

I don't like spiders or tight spaces but I think I just don't like them they're not scary enough to be phobias ya know?

Claustrophobia: Fear of crowded areas or small places.

I have the worst fear of small spaces.Crowded areas isn't that bad for me, as being from one of the most populated countries on the team I can handle a mess of people XD. But the fact is that some times it gets hectic and if I were to have been born in America without the exposure I had before, I would probably be afraid of crowds too. But the main subject of fear in my eyes is that of small places. Now this may be hard to imagine, but picture you being trapped in a small opening in a cave, with no room to move, just a dim bit of light that is soon taken away with a few more falling rocks. It's not fully the fact that I couldn't move that scared me, but I would hate being hopeless and bound to die a slow death. Not very cheery I know, but hey the topic is about phobias.

---

Now I have another one that I can't seem to find a word for it but I'll use:

Necrophobia: Fear of death or dead things.

Firstly, I am not afraid of death to myself more than the next person. It's just an end and I agree that I'd have to leave some time or another, I won't hide the fact that if I am doomed to die, I wouldn't panic, I would just ... die O_O But what I fear is other people I know dying. It's not so much the fact that they were killed or stopped breathing, it's the idea that they no longer exist. When my grandma died, I spent nights thinking about how someone I could just picture in my head would not NEVER exist in the same world as me. I have a very hard time dealing with permanence, any type of decision that is irreversible draws a sense of hesitance in me, and death is the granddaddy of all permanent decisions. I also had a hard time when the likes of Eddie Guerrero and Chris Benoit left us, God bless their souls, because I could not get over the fact that they would never be. Hard to explain yes, but it's true all the same.

Ornithophobia: Fear of birds.

I am afraid of all types of birds. I can't honestly say I can live in the immediate presence of any type, species or gender of bird without being unlimitedly uncomfortable. Why? I hate the idea of birds, I hate the fact that they are these little things with winds that flap so wildly and hit against each other. Now I'm not saying I hate birds, they are fun. Birds = great. Birds + Me = Doom. I think this started when at my home (India) birds used to enter and fly around. I used to be petrified by them just hovering over me. This became even worse when I saw dead birds. The splattered guts and spread out feathers disgusts me so much that I am regretting making this post as I type T_T. Now say this fear of birds dead and alive was portrayed in degree by the amount X. My fears became Googleplex(X)^2 when my friend ran over a bird while he was driving around in a parking lot. Never give a sophomore the keys to a car, and never let someone morbidly afraid of birds sit by when you run over one.

*shudder*

Has anyone seen the new Indiana Jones movie? It was interesting because I went with two friends and all three of us had phobias of something in that movie. One of my friend's is afraid of bugs, you should have seen him jump from his seat during the gigantic ant scene. LOL. Another is afraid of snakes. 'nuf said. And I am afraid of aliens. I know that doesn't sound like a legit fear, but I think I must have been abducted or something. j/k?? I'm not one of those crazy people who go around wearing aluminum foil on their heads. But for an example: A couple years ago, I got off work very late. I was living with 2 roommates at the time, both asleep. I turned on the TV and started watching a movie that was on TV that I had never seen. It was "Signs". I was not expecting the scene where they were watching the news and running behind the kids was an alien. "Its behind!" AAAAAH. I jumped up screaming and ran into one of my roommates room and woke them up. LOL. I have never lived that one down.
