OT: Arachnophobia. I hate those fuckers.

Dogs. If it has a name, it's probably something along the lines of caninophobia.
It is called cynophobia.

I used to have it, but it has reduced over the years and I can consider myself "cured" now.

Whatever the fear of failure is called. This may come across as woefully arrogant and/or condescending on my part however living a full life of mediocrity, working a menial job with little significance living paycheck to paycheck or slightly above. My brain literally cannot even contemplate such possibility and if I attempt to envision such, it is akin to a flashing red warning light in my mind, which eliminates any ability I have to focus on it.

Tis why I have based my entire life upon never being in that position and I never will.

Fear of heights - Slightly lessened over the years
Fear of flying insects - Only the flying ones, they freak me the hell out of a window.

Not to be an ass, but I'm willing to bet that most people here don't have a phobia of anything. It's not interchangeable with fear, it's a legitimate anxiety disorder.
If you are afraid of spiders, you see a spider, and go "ah! a spider! I hate spiders!" or whatever.
If you have arachnophobia, you'll refuse to go into people's unfinished basements, or anywhere dark, in case of spiders.

Phobophobia- Fear of phobias.
Didaskaleinophobia- Fear of going to school
Ergophobia- Fear of work
Hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia- Fear of the number 666. - anyone who can pronounce that, give yourself a cookie.

I'm not really afraid of these, it was just fun to find (and spell) these

I have sociophobia. I'm scared of big crowds of people and embarassing myself in public. It sucks.

Do you have a phobia?
And what is it?

I have arachnophobia (fear of spiders)
I'm really not sure. But i think i'm TERRIFIED of spiders. My mum has a phobia of them.. maybe it rubbed off on me.. I just can't see the reason behind a phobia though. It's all psychological.

OT: I think i've got something to do with veins too. Oh god............. They are...... ugh.. Veins.. TFIDUSHFIDFH| DX Yeah, some phobia of some kind with veins.

Acrophobia - Fear of heights and minor Trypanophobia - a fear of needles. I will try and avoid having hypodermic needles poked in me if I can, especially if it's high up :p

This. My parents think that it's weird, but I hate calling people. I'm cool with answering the phone, but I hate calling people. I would much rather set a time for them to call me in person, and wait for their call. That lead to another thing that bugged me, if they couldn't come over, they just wouldn't call. Even if I told them to call if even they couldn't come over, THEY WOULDN"T FUCKING CALL ME!
