| It's not a real phobia, but I am scared of spiders. When I see one, I call my fiancé and make him kill it, even though he doesn't like killing animals. |

| social phobia aka social anxiety plus some level of either homophobia or HOCD due to my religious upbringing i bet i fight them intrusive thoughts daily |
| Losing my own mind, as I've seen this with two of my close relatives already. When I was a kid though, I was afraid of immortality, so much so that I'd run around the house in a panic until I got it out of my head and calmed down. |
 |
| social phobia a bit/situationally fear of rejection some fears are well grounded though. like you should be afraid of cops unless youre rich or u have connections. and you should fear your boss unless you can get another job lined up pretty quick. im afraid of spiders only if you cant tell at a glance if its a black widow or not. only other deadly one here is a brown recluse which i dont think i could ID tbh. idk i generally leave spiders alone so ive never got bit, and whether theres any in my house has always depended on how many insects manage to get in... if hou have insects, you kinda need spiders |

| Fear is a illusion, a defence mechanism to keep you safe. Every fear can be overcome, if you are willing to face your own fears. If you ever overcome your own fear, keep in mind that you had it for a reason. I was kinda afraid of heights, but now since I have a job that has to do with heights, I overcome my own fear. But I always keep in my mind that I keep myself safe from falling down, even though my fear of heights is gone. |

| I have a fear of deep sea creatures, which is apparently called megalohydrothalassophobia. Just looking at photos of things like angler fish make me deeply unsettled. I'm not as afraid of surface water fish, but the thought of touching them makes me squirm. My theory is I became afraid of them because I had to dissect a salmon when I was 10 and hated it. I also have acarophobia, or the irrational fear of small bugs like fleas, lice, or bedbugs. Larger bugs don't bother me too much as long as they're a distance away. For this fear I blame that one SpongeBob episode where fleas infest Sandy's dome. It has multiple close ups of the fleas and it freaked me out. Looking at photos of microscopic creatures like tardigrades freaks me out too. |

| Long post incoming. Thalassophobia (fear of large bodies of water) and Athazagoraphobia (fear of forgetting someone or something or being forgotten) are perhaps my two biggest fears, the former on a more physical level and the latter on a more psychological level. Thalassophobia - So first off, I cannot swim. I can't swim to save my life. I don't know why, maybe it's my small surface area due to my small stature and skinny body or my really dense bones, but when I go into water - even if I fill my lungs up with air - I can hardly float, and I can't keep my head above the water. I've almost drowned 3 times in 6-8 ft deep pools, 3 times in a river (both calm and violent parts) and almost drowned once at the beach. I've practiced every time I've went into a body of water, but I just can't. I've tried many different techniques and methods of swimming, but none seem to work. Hell, I even tried just laying on the water, but I can't keep my head above the surface. So if I fall into any large body of water, I'm dead, there's nothing I can do to save myself. I have dreams where I'm at the bottom of a really deep body of water, and I'm running out of air so I have to make it to the surface. I try to swim up with my arms but it gets me nowhere, so I lunge up with my legs and then try to keep my momentum with my arms, but it doesn't work so I sink back down. This is what generally goes on in these dreams. In my last one, the surface was also covered in plastic, so even if I somehow managed to make it up, I wouldn't be able to make it past the plastic. I can't grab onto it, either. Drowning is a massive factor in my Thalassophobia. The sound of the ocean itself and other sounds that things produce there scares me. The creatures scare me. Some of the world's most dangerous and deadly creatures live in water. Fish like the Box Jellyfish and Conch Snail with venom so potent it can kill you within minutes, creatures with powerful bites or tentacles that can grapple me and dismember me - dragging me deeper into the water or eating me. Looking straight down leads you to see nothing but a dark abyss no matter where you are. If you drown out there no one will ever find your body, you'll be lost forever in the massive ocean. Athazagoraphobia - I don't mind being forgotten by the rest of the world, only by people close to me. Likewise I don't care if I forget about the rest of the world as long as I don't forget those close to me. My biggest problem with this fear is the likelihood of me developing Alzheimer's or some other thing causing memory loss due to a depressing lack of sleep. My mother probably has a chance of developing something similar as well, a thought I absolutely can't stand. Memory loss is something I don't wish upon anyone, seeing it happen is fucking heartbreaking. The dementia-ridden seniors I've seen in living centers are depressing to watch. They're a shell of their former selves, they've completely forgotten what they were like, their experiences, their loved ones, they've lost themselves and their consciousness and are oblivious to it. This is also my main reason why I'm so afraid of prions, which are these terrible, terrible misfolded proteins that cause Creutzfeldt Jakob disease and are incurable. Thinking about "What If" scenarios of any member of my family getting dementia or losing their memory fucking breaks me. I can't stand it. Death is the ultimate form of this, that is, if God and heaven are mere fabrications of man. You die, you lose your point of view, you lose your consciousness and cannot see yourself or anything from your perspective from what is truly you because it (you) doesn't exist anymore. That's why I'm so terrified of it... when my parents die, to them it'll be as if they never even existed. No more thinking or consciousness. That's why I'm so desperate for an afterlife and a God to exist, so I nor no one forgets anything and we can stay together forever. Death and loss of consciousness as a concept terrifies me, but it's the forgetting factor that really breaks me down. Speaking of a loss of consciousness, in a way, Dementophobia is similar. I fear I may lose my grip on reality, and at one point I may completely lose it. In the past I always saw myself as mentally stable as someone can be, but in more recent times I've begun to doubt that. My mind and conscious is constantly bombarded with intrusive thoughts of the most despicable caliber, making me hate what my mind has become and fearful of what my self will do in the future if I don't keep things under control. Luckily everything is only in my head, and those unwanted, unconscious thoughts are never acted upon in real life, and I hope it stays that way so I don't become a horrible person. I'm scared of the future and don't want to deal with it, so suicide as an option has been something I (thankfully never seriously considered but) pondered and found myself becoming fearful of committing for a while. I want to stay sane, so I don't hurt myself but especially anyone around me, and so everything I've learned up until this point isn't lost. Other stuff. Ever since I was a kid, I've been afraid of the dark and of being alone. They're something that was left to us by evolution, since being in the dark or alone was unsafe. But even now I'm still scared of these, especially when both are combined. I'm not as scared as I used to be, although I still find myself keeping at least a few light sources on to minimize darkness when walking down the hallway to the bathroom at night, and running to my bed afterwards. I also still sleep under my covers, and back at our previous home, it was so bad that I would hang blankets to cover the gaps of my younger brother and I's bunkbed (he slept at the top bunk, I slept at the bottom) essentially making a fort around me. Thankfully this is no longer necessary, but for some reason I occasionally get really on edge at night, and I don't know why. |

| Stairs and escalators. I used to watch Rescue 911 a lot as a child and there was an episode where a kid got his jacket caught in an escalator and almost suffocated. Also, your shoes can get caught in them. I hate having to use them in malls it always takes me a bit to get on them. Stairs are more of a people being on stairs with me because I've been thrown down a flight of stairs before. |

| I used to have bad acrophobia. Like, it was so bad I would avoid walking close to the rails if I was above the first floor lmao. It's funny now 'cause I plan to skydive and bungee jump in the future. Nowadays, I just have katsaridaphobia. It's weird though 'cause I don't freak out or anything seeing roaches, but I basically go into "killing mode" if I see one. And I definitely don't want 'em touching me. The roaches I held in biology lab were cute though |
| I have a rare phobia, called "Altocelarophobia." I'm afraid of being in buildings with high ceilings, because it feels like I'm going to be sucked up into air, and then drop to my death. I first experienced this when I was only 3 or 4 years old. While I still have this phobia, it's nowhere as bad as it was when I was young, but if I'm in a building with a high ceiling, and I look directly up, my legs will still tremble a bit. |
 |
| I have "spacial" issues that's a form of claustrophobia. I can be in tight/enclosed spaces... but I generally cannot have too many people around me (hate people standing behind me at that, and whenever I walk into a place I have my back to a wall. I won't sit at anywhere there's a window to my back either), or too many things going on at once like six ppl chattering with a TV on nearby and someone playing a video game. Stuff like that. ---I can handle it for a little bit, but if it goes on too long, (the crowd thing) it makes me antsy and can lead me to having a Involuntary Tourette moment where I'm like... "Everyone STFU!" or "Make a hole, make a hole. I need some space" and I have to get out of that area. I had to handle it in my former profession doing Security Enforcment & Force Protection work for 14.4 years, but I tried to pick assignments to be fielded to posts where I didn't have to deal with too much of that, and could handle my patrol beats on foot or in vehicle or both. It would be from 2016 to 2020 time period where I got stuck with four to eight others (it varied) doing crowd control for night clubs and bars and special events that REALLY tested me. Sometimes I had to let co workers know, YO I GOTTA' JAM MAN. I'm Splitsville... can't do all these people. The worst was doing concerts and parade details with thousands all around and just noise everywhere. I tend to work alone and keep to myself as much as possible. Same in private life. Other than that, I have an on again / off again issue with Vertigo from "heights". I'm not scared of heights as much as being up too high somewhere CAN (not always) create a head swimming effect that makes my heart race and I get nausea. But it's connected to a "Spacial" issue again more than being AFRAID of heights. That's about it. Oh. I hate Cockroaches. If I see them it's WAR and an entire room could be destroyed with me killing them. |
| To moths and fire. Even lighting an innocent match has always been a true challenge to me. |
| I have no phobia so I'm ready to swim in a large oceanic exoplanet anytime. Like Quagsire, I got the Unaware ability. I could work in maintenence on Venus with nerves of steel. So what if the surface is scorching hot? It doesn't surprise me much. I could work as a welder and walk on I-beams without shaking in my boots. I ain't even scared of high voltage and arc rays. You could put me in the wilderness and I would go Far Cry Primal on carnivorous animals. |

| Only people who have more power than me. The type of people who can force their will on me. I try avoid them whenever possible. It is almost all I do in life: avoiding people with power. I hate being told what to do. I always avoid that kind of situations and people that could put me in such situations. In contrast I like people who are more powerless than me. I can rule over them. |

| Gynophobia. I'm not joking. Got fucked up experiences as a child involving women. |
| I wouldn’t say I have arachnophobia, but I sure as shit can’t stand spiders. They freak me out so much. I legit have nightmares about spiders falling off of the ceiling and onto me. These nightmares have been reoccurring for over 10 years now. And a few months ago one bit me 3 times on my arm. I got blisters and the wounds wouldn’t fully heal for over a month. Now I’m left with scars. That’s only increased my fear of the little bastards. |
| i have a pretty bad phobia of heights, anything the same level or higher than the 2nd story in a two story house is enough for my legs to freeze up near any ledges, fences/rails, or the top of stairs i'm also really bad with tall stairs and escalators, oh my gosh i despise escalators even though they're so useful |
| ants they way they move in a line its even worse when their is 2 lines on ants make my fucken skin itch |

1iq-Salty said: Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia (not really but this gave me a chance to write it ) The person who invented this phobia name is purely evil! I can see that person sitting behind a desk, thinking about a phobia name for fear of long words. "Fear for long words, what phobia name shall I give it? Let me think...... Oh, I know Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia." Which is freaking one of the longest words in English. Lol Those people are even afraid to tell which phobia they have. I love it! But anyway, back on topic. I don't really have phobia's. Well I do, but I just go with it. Phobia's and fears are just a illusion, a defence system. I was first afraid of heights, but since I have work with involves a lot of heights, I don't have any fear for heights anymore. A fear or phobia is for me a chance to overcome myself and move further with my life. I'm not a adrenaline junkie but sometimes I love it to go over the edge with something. Especially fears, and I love it so much. I also might get a euphoria feeling from fears. Maybe a thrill seeker would be a better suitable name for me. So, in short. I don't really know what 'real' phobia I have at this moment. Maybe I have a little bit of fear of contamination, for example in toilets. Always opening doors with my ellbow, clean my hands before and after going to the toilet. Touching everything with toiletpaper and not my bear hands. I don't have this at home, my room can sometimes be a big mess and I don't care. But public toilets, NO WAY. So, maybe I have a slighty form for fear of contamination. And this is something I don't find joy in, nor want to overcome. Because it's just disgusting, especially when I see how many people don't wash their hands. And yes, I had this WAY before covid. I'm not afraid of sneezing or coughing people. I don't really care about that. I only have this in public showers, public swimming pools and public toilets. |
