18 Wheelers, they scare me when I drive past them. They're just so massive, and the fact that they can move so fast. I am also afraid of the idea of massive sea creatures in the oceans. The fact that there are living beings that are that large scares me like a primal fear.

I am also scared of:
-Finger injuries
-Teeth injuries
-Eye injuries

that episode of Are you Afraid of the Dark where that invisible water guy was dragging kids down in their school pool to drown made me pretty uncomfortable swimming by myself for a while

Lemme make a list if I haven't already:
-Got a phobia of all insects except small brown ants (Had a bug fly into my ear once, horrifying experience)
-Phobia of being alone/abandoned (I got lost a lot as a kid at department stores)
-Phobia of spiders (No reason, I've been like this since I was born)

And then this isn't a phobia, but I'm afraid of confrontation

insects are such facinating creatures. I love watching them.

Blood clots. I fear them immensely and thus stretch my legs on a near constant basis. They are never still.

To a minor extent, being in open water, just because of what could be beneath the water trying to kill me.

But mainly escalators, because it really worries me how easy it would be for someone in front to lose their balance and cause a landslide of bodies. Also, because of a daisies four-story escalator I had to ride in an aquarium I visited a while back, and they even put televisions above it so you would look up.

It's incredibly silly but they still freak me out.

I get this as well, although I'm more paranoid of them suddenly falling.

I don't have any real phobias, but I have a lot of irrational fears, such as thinking that there's going to be a big tornado whenever it's really windy outside even though we don't get huge ones here. Whenever I'm in some sort of vehicle as well (especially if it's a train) I always get this small paranoia that it's going to crash. And another thing, I hate watching people breakdance or perform stunts or just generally do dangerous performances either in real life or live on TV because I am absolutely terrified that they're going to injure themselves. When I was on holiday one time there was this guy in the entertainment team who could do backflips and every time he did them on stage I was terrified that he was going to land on his neck and snap it and I always found myself tensing up when he did them. Sometimes I'd just look away, a small part of me anticipating the sound of people suddenly screaming and panicking.


...in other words, i seem to fear the worst all the time

People. My hands shake when I'm just thinking about going outside, where people could see me. Especially people my age (I always expect them to laugh at me) or people that might know me (I would have to interact with them and then they would hate me). College is a never-ending nightmare because of this.

Failure. I don't know why, but having less than 85% on any minor exam makes me feel I will fail everything forever.

Future because of the former.

Driving (I would never have started if I did not win a free driving class (worth over 1000$ now)). It got better once I asked for a different teacher (the first one kept yelling and accusing me of doing bad maneuvers even when it was not the case), but given that I never practice outside of the classes for various reasons, I'm convinced I will fail miserably at the road test and never find the strength to try again.

I'm not afraid of spiders unless they crawl towards me. Same thing for most bugs, except those horrible 2'' long flying ants that pop out of nowhere every summer and chase me around the house.
Heights sometimes make my stomach feel funny, but never scare me.
