Tornadoes. Tornadoes scare me.


Same. Any kind of severe weather makes me uneasy...I didn't have the best time with Katrina when I was 15.

Those beep warnings on the radio and TV when weather is bad? They make me nervous as hell.

Hurricanes don't really scare me. Tornadoes are unpredictable and cam happen almost anytime.

Of course, hurricanes are a system, so it's silly to dismiss them. They are just easier to avoid.

I'm surprised Claustrophobia isn't on there. I would assume that falls under Agoraphobia?

I'm claustrophobic as a MF'er.

I'm pretty scared of heights. My legs get shaky and I feel a little bit of panic when looking out of windows of really tall building. Elevators with whole glass sides freak me the frick out.

2. Ophidiophobia: The fear of snakes. Often attributed to evolutionary causes, personal experiences, or cultural influences.

For some reason I have an unreasonable fear of snakes in the toilet. I have no reason but I always think about it before I sit to handle my business.

#3 made me realize years ago tat all fears can be overcome.

quote:

3. Acrophobia:
The fear of heights.
This fear can lead to anxiety attacks and avoidance of high places.


Heights aren't bad unless it's unsafe, its our own triggered mechanism for fear, embrace it and find alternate paths to reach your goal if it's unsafe.

Most other fears other than death can be avoided and you'd be surprised how many people aren't afraid of it as they age in comparison to when they are younger.

I overthink the process of getting an airliner in the air & safely on the ground. Which is the main reason I fear flying.

Only 2 for me, I think.

I mean, I'm not excited about being in a confined space, spiders or being in a precarious position up high, but I don't get especially scared by it. I'm very fearful of lightning in the mountains/golf course, but again, it's not like I get petrified in my house.
