I have a very strange phobia. I'm afraid of balloons - mostly when they pop in your face :angry:Â Â Many of my friends have arachnophobia, but thankfully I don't. *I actually think spiders are kinda kool...*Â Oh ya, and I think I've also started developing claustrophobia lately :hehe:
-
OMG!!! I have balloon phobia too!!! I knew people hated it, i have only met one person with it... well, one of my teachers mothers has it.
-
I'm clauserphobic and I also have arachnophobia, I'm scared of popping the balloon, more than it popping in my face. I just get scared of the sound ^o^
-
im scared of balloons full stop. i also have metatheiophobia; scared of change.
-
Wow! I'm so glad that I've met other "balloon phobia" ppl :hehe: At least I'm not alone :)
-

so you can't change from pen to pencil ? or seat to seat ?
-
I have acrophobia XD so afraid of heights >_<
-
i freak out when i see bugs~~well, not really dramatic, i juz freeze all over and pray that the bug crawls away mainly coz i dont dare to kill, i juz cant kill an ant, i'd normally blow it away~~thats an easy way to florida~ :D
a spider? i'd cap an empty gel bottle over it and release it outside my home.
a flying bug? i'll run about the house like a maniac trying very hard to avoid contact wif the bug.
a roach? i'd screem for my mom/my dad, if they are not in, i leave the whole room to the roach (i'm bullied by a roach!!!! HELP~~!!!!)
-
so you can't change from pen to pencil ? or seat to seat ?
no, not that, i'm scared of BIG changes... i don't like changing classroom seats, like seating plans, but i can stand them... it's big ones... like people moving... dieing... etc...
-
I suffer of a weird acropohobia >.< I'm not afraid of heights.. I'm afraid of falling from a high place ^//^ heheheh... ahhhhhh, and I tend to suffer claustrophobia... thankfully not very often *sigh*
-
bugs, spiders, heights.. but not all the time
and i think that's it.. HAHA!! but sumtimes i freak out over the littlest things.. XD
hmm wat about ghosts.. cuz i believe in them.. and a bunch of supernatural things.. haha i think i've watched too much tv.. LMAO!!
-
I have a weird fear of really large circlular objects.^^; Like, at the local museum I can't walk in front of this massive rocket engine that is on display there. Airplane wheels freak me out when I see the airport people standing next to them.
I also have a really bad fear of bees and wasps. I really freak out when they are around... As in I start running and don't stop for awhile. >_> One flew into my ear at the medieval fair last week, and I jumped in the air, swung my head forward so I was bent at the waist, (managing to fling my headgear a few yards), and smacked myself in the ear several times (although I'm not sure what that was supposed to accomplish). ~.~
What else? I have a lot of them! I have a mild fear of clowns, since one shook my hand with a hand buzzer when I was little and scared the living crap out of me...
-
ahhh. it's not a phobia but sometimes when I stare too much at certain patterns, they scare me O_O don't ask how.. I dunno... once I got scared of a dotted floor pattern >.< yikes!
-

me too. the only insects i'm afraid of. all the other insects i'm fine with. once, when there was a wasp in out sunroom, i'm ran into our pool table from trying to get away. this only caused more pain then if i'd just stood there and let the thing fly past me.
i don't know if it's a phobia, but i'm also afraid of doing new things. i'll just make up reasons why i cant/shouldn't do something that i want to do. that will probably hurt me somewhere later in my life.
this too, might not be a phobia, but i'm afraid of being in large crowds of people and talking to someone i haven't met. that's probably extreme shyness or social anxiety disorder or something.
-
Im afraid of ghost and my attic. The reason
why I said my attic is bcuz I was watching this scary movie
and there was this dead body that was shoved up in the attic and so it wants revenge by killing enyone
and it makes this wierd noise when it comes for u I got so scared bcuz the attic is in my room. :icon_pale:
And Im also affraid of clowns. :icon_clown:
-
I'm afraid of heights and...umm..cockroaches! disgusting...
-
I'm afraid of heights and...umm..cockroaches! disgusting...
You would have hated my old highschool, then. We had a horrible roach problem. @.@ I remember when the cheerleaders' posters would fall off the wall during the night, in the morning the tape on the back would be covered in roaches. Once, I saw the principal stick one back up on the wall like that, roaches and all. I felt bad for the girls who would be taking that one down. XD
-
I haven't had a phobia officially diaganosed by a doctor or anything, but I can confidently say that I'm greatly afraid of bugs, spiders, and steep hills (I wonder what that phobia is called). I used to think I was afraid of riding in a vechicle because I would always get very nervous when I'm riding in a car down one of those steep hills on the side of mountains, but I think it's more of a fear of just the steep hills now, since I'm also afraid of riding a bike down a steep hill. And when I'm riding in a car on flat land I'm mostly ok, expcet when those trucks with the explosive gases in them start coming around, but that's more of a fear of having a wreck with them than riding/driving itself because if you wreck with one of those things, everything goes boom! I'm also afraid of heights, but only when I'm near the edge or riding in an airplane. And I'm afaid of social situations, but I think that's more of a social anxiety than a true phobia because I can still somewhat operate in social situations; I'm just incredibly crappy with them and get nervous in large crowds.

co..covered in roaches? oh gawd, that would have to be a nightmare!
Cardcaptor Takato >> You made me remember one more thing.. I'm afraid of social gatherings or crowds of people. It's called sociophobia so yeah..there really is a phobia for that. oh! by the way, have you rode a roller coaster then? :sweatdrop:
-
Whoa...scary. Roaches...I can't even stand a tiny, puny roach let alone a whole army of them. :sweatdrop: I'd probably end up having a seizure or start hyperventilating. Ugh...stupid bugs and insects.
That's my phobia, bugs and insects. I hate them all, even butterflies and ladybugs. I've had bad experiences with them, let's leave it at that...XD
Oh yes, which reminds me that I should warn you guys about butterflies. They only look pretty to lure you in and then they'd tickle yyou with their feelers and then beat you to death with their hideous, flapping wings! YES!
They'll divebomb us all when we least expect it!! :shifty: They'll all swarm around us and then attack like there was no tomorrow!!
Lmao. I know...I'm crazy. It shall happen one day...I just know it. [pink panther song plays in bg] Err...yeah. lol
-
The fear I have in Arizona is getting biten by a snake or a scropion. Â

there's a phobia for being afraid of large groups of people? i knew my liking to be alone was more then just personality. when i talk to people i get scared.
you'd hate the teacher at my school. he's a really weird science teacher. about a week ago he was carrying a roach around with these large tweaser like objects. he was scaring all the preps with it. i just shrugged and said it was cool. then i stood there and watched the show as the girls i didn't like screamed their heads off.
-

Me too. I get really, really nervous when talking to people I don't know.

oh yeah..I also don't like girls screaming their hearts out.
-
I have severe arachnophobia, because my dad showed me a tarantula when I was like 3.
I've also got a really weird phobia - I don't like being near winodws if they haven't got the curtains closed, becuase I got scared of the tango man peeking through windows in an advert I saw when I was little.

But it's not really a phobia. It's just a part of my depression. Like, if I didn't have depression, I wouldn't be afraid of social situations. It's kind of complicated to explain. And I have been on only one roller coaster once and I was begging to get off the entire time. I never want to ride one again in my life.
-
I'm scared of the dark.. LoL.. ;) i'm still a little kiddie at heart.. :P
I'm scared of heights too a big.. tehe.. Rockclimbing was a pain.. *groan* i could never get up higher than about a few feet.. tehe.. :)
-

okay..but I really like roller coasters because of the thrilling ride even though I'm afraid of heights.. :heh:
-
I have quite a few phobias. My greatest phobia is claustrophobia. I start to hypervenelate when there are too many people near me, which leads to my next phobia: ochlophobia; the fear of crowds. I hate being near too many people. I prefer to be alone. Also I have an enormous fear of bugs, spiders and scorpians.
-
Moezychan reminded me... I also am a bit claustrophobic. It only really bothers me if I am in a place that is small and dark, though. If I have to feel the walls, I kind of freak out. I remember once I was in an inclosed water slide, but the water was moving much more slowly than usual... It took so long to get out that I nearly had a panic attack. @.@ Other than that, I've only had a few instances where it was bad... once on a camping trip when I had to sleep in the space between a bed and a couch, and this morning, when I rode my school library's elevator for the first time (that wasn't totally dark, but I was alone and the lights kind of flickered). Unpleasant.
-
Bugs/insects, water, and hights. When I'm up so high it feels like somebody is going to push me over. Then I get dizzy. Ugh...and spiders are plain creepy. I don't FREAK out when I see a small one, but the bigger ones are creepy. And I hate how they come down on their webs all of a sudden. Its kinda funny though. With water, I've had bad experiences...some bugs are cool but they have those legs and they are so...annoying. There was th is thing that you climb up and sit on top at my old school, I went on top, slipped, hit my head and fell. But I was laughing, cause it was kinda funny, but I still hate em. Enough rambling, this was kind of a long post...LOL!
-
I've only got a slight phobia of water. I can cope with normal, like at the beach or in swimming pools...but I freak if I'm on a boat in the middle of the ocean.
Everyone on my last holiday knows that too now...sigh
-
My two main phobias would be large groups of people in a small area, but I can generally deal with each of those things seperately, and bugs o.o Makes me think of the last forum I joined where one of my earliest post was about my fear of bugs and throwing a full 2 liter bottle of pop at a moth and then running away ^^;
-
Yeah...if I'm like on a boat I'd like freak. As I said before, bad experiences. One thing I hate, I have NO clue what its called but say I'm somewhere that I'm not familiar with and I can't find like a door or something I feel so weird and scared...I don't know why but it feels like I'm in a bnig ol maze.
-
oooooh.....I should know what that's called, but my brain melted last night from homework....
I think I'm also afraid of dogs now...even the little ones. Great - scared by a snappy yorshire terrier.....
-
I used to be afraid of dogs, but I'm starting to like them. I had another phobia of mine, but I just forgot it. The only other things that are living and not humans would be the insects as I said before. Ugh...
-
Flying insects.
*shudders*
-
i used to have arachnephobia (spelling), now i just don't like them - along with a whole list of things like large crowds. but now...i officially have a phobia for leeches...erg
-
I use to be afraid of heights, but acutally going on the roller coaster got me over it. Weird....yes. Worth it....DEFINETLY!!!
My dad told me to try it, but I said no, and then he literally threw me in the seat and then the locks came on and I was off. I swear my eyes were so tightly shut and I was screaming my head off ^^
But I'm over heights now :P
-
nee.. does a phobia for "Shouting" exists? I hate it when angry people shout at each other.. it makes me cry even if I'm not the one being shouted at.. X_X
and just like Little Wolf, I'm afraid of Cockroaches.. hate them!!
-
Hates bugs, spiders, etc...
as you know baloons... foam..........
i hate little dogs.. not that im scared of them... its them BITING me... since my grandparents have them and they bit my brother and me... eeeee....
-
I got scared of dogs when my aunt's two huge ones leapt up on me when I was about three...now I can't stand any dog.
-
I think big dogs are nicer than small ones... since... they say big ones are vicious.. but are real softies... and little ones just tear at you without a care in the world.
-
I love dogs, cats are more evil though ^^"
My friend had a car phobia, since her mother and father died in a car crash. She's better now since her foster mom took her to get some help. It's really sad though *sniffs*
-
i also have a phobia of ladders. they don't scare because they're high up, they scare because they're so easy to fall off. you guys should have seen me when i joined this little after school fire/police course. they let us climb the ladder, and i was prancing around like a nervous pony. i climbed it halfway though, and going up is much easier than going down.
-
I hate cats as well.. since my step grandmother had cats when i was little and they bit and scratched me... and this friend i had ages ago had them too... and they scratched me a lot... *winces as remembers*
-
not all cats are bad... :(
hmm... phobias:
stage fright
the darkness
too much silence
eating bugs (never tried never will)
and m most especially afraid of...
forgetting about anime and manga and losing them~!!! :sad6: don't want that to happen~ :icon_pale:
-
AGGGG!!! *hides in corner* don't make me think about terrible things!!!!!!! ~~~~
Yeah, i know not all cats are bad... that just put me off them...
-
I'm just scared of cats, they scratch too much. *cringes*
I also have stage fright, I mumble words when I do speeches and other stuff, I look so embarassing >.<
-
i'm scared of spiders..I just freak out. One time this guy put a live spider in my friend's brithday card and we both freaked out!
-
Arachnaphobia is the most common phobia... its the legs, the bodies, whatever.
-
It's there beady eyes and those hairy legs *shudders*
-
i m scared of bugs and height and getting drown
-
I think i am a pathetic person. I have lots of phobia may be I have no confidence in myself.
Phobia 1: I got stuck in the lift before with my mother for 3 hours when I was about 5. From then on up to 13+ I never took the lift by myself. I took the stairs!! ( I lived on the 12th floor!!!). Up to now if I have quite a long time never step up of my house esp during holidays i liked to stuck at home, my phobia comes again!! My heart is racing especially alone in the lift.
Phobia 2: I scared of lizards. When I saw them I screamed my head off at them and ran off
Phobia 3: Hate public speaking esp in English. I just can't speak well to bring my message across even typing a message like now in a forum. sad..
-
i used to hate public speakings too, (lets just say i have a reputation to say some REALLY stupid things when i get embarrased or don't know what to say) and i used to make a fool of myself. but i'm steadily getting better ^^;
-
I have a fear of... ::dun dun DUNNNN::
Nebulaphobia!! It's an innate fear of fog! hahahaha no i don't really have a fear of it, but i found it really really funny. Though, contrary to what a lot of people here've said, i have a fear of being alone (name escapes me right now)
it's really funny because I love quiet serene places... like i can't be alone for EXTENDED periods of time. I'd need someone to come in later to talk to or something.. it's pretty weird.
If you guys are curious, there are a LOT of phobias out there... There's even a phobia for the POPE!!! ( papaphobia! hahahahaha) you can find a complete list of them at http://www.phobialist.com/ ... there's a fear of syphillis... i think i have that =p
-
altophobia and pyrophobia!!
height and fire [gastoves]
-
I am only afraid of three things and only these three things. seriously nothing else scares me. ok now don't laugh most people find being afraid of these things funny.
1. Spiders (yeah its pretty normal)
2. anything volcanic, or molten
3. trains or anything that runs on a track.
-
only spiders is my phobia oh and being in the deepest darkest part of the ocean and drowning there.
only those
-
Athazagoraphobia- Fear of being forgotton or ignored or forgetting.
Autophobia- Fear of being alone or of oneself
Phasmophobia- Fear of ghosts.
:sweatdrop:
-
the word FEAR stand for ‘False Evidence Appearing Real’ . HAha =>
My list: cockroach, lizard n ghost
-
tall places and ski lifts (1st ride I kinda fell off ,the last time I crashed into sumething and the operator started screaming at me *sniff* I freaked and now I hate ski lifts)
-
I have a phobia with snakes. ugh . and it is not just because i'm a girl i have got every reason to be after almost being attacked 3 or4 times.
1. when playing at age 5 this cobra looking snake decided it was going to strike. i screamed like crazy and i think that stopped it.
2. A year later a very small but poisonous coral snake started climb up my foot.
3. when hanging out clothes a couple years later there was a 4 feet mapapipe which was waiting to crush me.
4.Later that same year another snake hidden under one of my bags decided that because i found his hiding place he was going to have revenge. the one actually snapped at my hand and followed me raising up to strike before it got side tracked by my couch.
yeah so know u know why i have the phobia.By the way none ever actually bit me stopped either by me running or the power of my screams.
-
ghost are friendly.i think
-
some ghosts, havn't you heard of the poltergeist or whats it called that throws objects around, those could hurt, and some ghosts come back for revenge or they don't accept death and hate the living ooooohhh scary
-
nooooooo
crrrrrreeeeeepppppppyyyyyy
like that movie The Boogieman
or the Ring that was scary. i couldn't sleep with the light off for like days.
-
I hate heights but I'm not that afraid of them, and I HATE spiders.... *shivers* I mean it's like, ever since I saw this stupid TV show special, where people got bitten by one and their fingers melted, I've been afriad. and also, I used ta be afraid of ghosts, but not really anymore, I got over it. =D
-
I hate heights,I usually throw up when this happens.
-
I used to think that my greatest fear was claustrophobia, but it turns out that it isn't. There was a bug in our house and I was running away from it, and I actually went behind my computer to escape it. The space behind my computer is very small, and my fear of bugs was so great that it temporarily got rid of my claustrophobia! I still have claustrophobia, but now I'm more terrified of bugs than of anything else.
-
i hate bugs. definitely. that's probably it. hah.
-
spiders (but only if they are hanging over me) and little rooms!
Spiders over me in little rooms are the pure horror.
But the most fear I have is when I go through our floor...I don't know... when I go through it I have the feeling...there is something behind me and I must look over my shoulder all the time...uahhh
BUT: CRAZY When I go in the night on the toilet for example there is nothing...only in the morning... scary isn't it?!
-
Another fear you reminded me of Fye-chan; I can go in my basement during the day and not be afraid of it, but when I go at night, I always think that there is somebody following me.
-
hmm....I don't know if this is really a phobia, but if I'm walking on the sidewalk and someone is coming towards me to go in the other direction I'm totally terrified. I don't know what it is. I always feel that their after me or something. Yup. I'm weird. lol
-
basically what most people fear (or so i believe ^^).... heights, horror movies... and the ever popular topic of insects. *shudders*
-
insects.. ahhh! i start screaming when i see a fly. hah.
-
insects.. ahhh! i start screaming when i see a fly. hah.
Same here! I can't stand them!
-
Lol, not that extreme. i just dont like those long ones... or ridiculously large ones.... take a centipede for example, all those legs! i can imagine it tripping over anything *not that it can* lol! ok, that was lame xD
omg you know, i dixcovered something really shocking last night....
my brother is afraid on bugs *starts rolling on floor laughing* :rotfl:
okay, im not trying to be rude but really, after these almost 15 years of being his sister, knowing that he's over 6 feet tall, and the most intimidating guy that i know, he's afraid of bugs!? last night he saw a cockaroach and called me out in the middle of the night to help him squash it. wtf? hahaha my dad's reaction? simple. let me quote - "He's a man and he's afraid of bugs? What's the world coming to in this house?"
ok, im done ranting. lol
-
Um... I'm afraid of dolls. Dolls woth big unblinking eyes. ::shudder::Â And Wasps I hate wasps. Dolls are pretty high up on my list though. :sweatdrop:
-
" Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia- Fear of long words."
WTF? XD
Er.. is there a phobia for locking your keys in your car? Maybe that's just an obsessive habit, but I aways have to check that my keys are with me.
I'm also afraid of social situations, and maybe... fear of rejection? XO Things like heights, spiders, etc, don't really bother me. I don't like needles though. I can have my blood drawn, but I can't watch while they're doing it. ^^;;
-
Um... I'm afraid of dolls. Dolls woth big unblinking eyes.
Yeah, I can relate to that one...creepy, dolls have always creeped me out.
I'm also afraid of social situations, and maybe... fear of rejection?
That one too.
Good thing for the internet!
All of us shy people can talk forever!
-
oh there's a new one! porcelin {sp?} dolls scare me to death. i had one when i was little and i woke up in the middle of the night and i looked at it. it just reminds me of someone just staring at you constantly. it freaks me out.
-
ghost are friendly.i think
Some ghosts may be friendly, but I'm still not comfortable with the thought of them . . . I saw my grandma's ghost once. :sweatdrop: (She died before I was born.)
P.S.
Please don't think I'm crazing for saying I saw my grandma . . . People in my family just have a tendency to see see strange things like that. :heh:
-
I don't like needles though. I can have my blood drawn, but I can't watch while they're doing it. ^^;;
You too?! So can I! I give blood all the time, but when they put the needle in, I have to look away.

Don't worry about it. Sometimes I think I have ESP. I always know what people are thinking, and here's another good one for you. I have prophetic dreams. You can say you're like Touya, and I'm Sakura!
-
i have prophetic dreams too! i always thought i was weird because i had them. and now i've found someone that has them!
-
i have prophetic dreams too! i always thought i was weird because i had them. and now i've found someone that has them!
It is weird isn't it! I thought I was the only one too! There's only one thing I hate about them; I can tell when something is going to happen, but I can never do anything to stop it! For example: when I was about 14 I was asleep, it was about midnight, and I had a dream that my house burned down. I was so scared that I woke up and went into the living room; my parents were there and they had a fire going in the fireplace. I told them to shut the fire off because the house was going to burn down, and mom asked how I knew this, and I said I had a dream that the house was going to burn down. She told me it was just a bad dream and I should go back to bed. 5 minutes later, the chimney caught fire! Thankfully the house didn't burn down, but it's still freaks me out to this day.
-
yeah that happened to me once. it was very scary.. i don't remember what happened because i was really young but i remember being terrified.
-
dolls.... yeah... i had TWO of those kinds of dolls in my room for about a week.... my god, it was really freaky. they dont blink, the eyes dont close and i found it very creepy... o_O and so i decided to place them in my parents' room. rofl! im pathetic. but thats the way it is. xD
-
I am really scared of roller coaster´s!!!! And I defenately am scared of spiders (not to mention that I am allergic of them too) every time a spider touches my skin or something I get this really freaking SPOTS O.o
-
I hate needles, too! Every time I get my blood drawn, I get sick for at least two weeks... Once for almost three months. I must have a bad immune system...
-
I hate my parents! Most people here should know I have really bad arachnophobia, right/
On holiday, they decided to go for a walk at night, so they dragged by down this roofed bridge in Luzern, Switzerland....and I'm not kidding, including the legs, nearly all the spiders in there were this big!
j
j
j
j
j
Gah! And they were everywhere! All the arches, in the roof....it was fine during the day, but they came out at night!
-
i'm afraid of very very small places and spiders
-
I am afraid of things with a lot of legs. This includes spiders, centipedes,millipedes and a few other random insects. I also can't stand needles, I have to distract myself when a doctor wants blood or something.

Heh heh, your phobias are the exact same as mine! Oh except fire, I am veeeerrrry irrationally afraid of fire...
