Phobias

[Artina89]

I can't really say that I have a phobia, not one I can think of off the top of my head anyway.

Pediophobia- Fear of dolls.

I couldn't remember the name of it. Thanks.
I have this, along with Acrophobia - the fear of heights, and Gephyrophobia - the fear of bridges (which sort of tie in together I guess). I used to be claustrophobic, but that's eased off in recent years...

Arachnophobia
Heights... Acrophobia?
Clowns... Coulrophobia?
Aerophobia

I have Acrophobia, otherwise known as the fear of heights.

However, the odd thing about this phobia is that it doesn't effect me too much when I'm outside. It's always when I'm inside like in a musuem or skyscraper or something.
e.g. I have only ever been to the London Science Museum once. Not because its far away, but because I'm terrified of going there and ending up in the main hall

Spoiler

The Main Hall is HUGE and I'm terrified of going in there.

I think I know have the same thing. Basically, if I'm up on a high hill looking down, it's not scary. If I'm up on the second story of my house, looking out my dad's patio door, I'm scared (he doesn't have a patio; he has the door though).

Basically, it's more like... I'm afraid of being up high, near an edge. I'll often just sit down, or back away. I don't like high edges.

I have no clue if there's a word for it or not, but I have a phobia of making/receiving calls on my mobile when I'm indoors.

Same here!


I also have a fear of just phones in general.

I have a weird fear of making phone calls. I don't mind receiving them though... go figure... and I have no problem with texting

Trypanophobia. I think I spelled it wrong but it basically means I have a fear of injections and medical procedures, which is a big pain in the ass lemme tell you. I had a filling a month or so ago and it was absolutely horrible, it was painful but not overly so, but the feeling of having a needle jabbed in my gums was just the worst feeling ever. Ill be honest as soon as I got home I just broke down and wept.

heights, that is all, not even death or spiders ^_^

and ironically, they did a study in the UK and it turns out the #1 fear was public speaking, the #2 fear was death, so people would rather be in the casket then giving the speach at the funeral =]

Spheksophobia- Fear of wasps.

 

[Wayte]

Needles. Not like, afraid of bein near them. Just being poked by one...it's a pain I can't ever get used to.
And bugs, and heights too lol.

i have a phobia of 4chan's /b/ board now.

 

[ShotgunShaman]

I'm afraid of nothing in particular, but also I'm terrified of anything remotely scary or creepy. Except some psychological horror, as long as it's not scary things jumping out at me.

 

[GreyEarth]

No phobias here, though I'm not keen on spiders.
I dont mind spiders, and allow several to live inside my house to control annoying bugs like flies and mosquitoes.

Its the big fukers, like Huntsman's that im not fond of.
Red Back Spiders and White Tailed Spiders are KOS even though they are relatively very small.

Heights

Being stabbed- if someone is jabbing at me with a pen I get nervous

Anatidaephobia - The fear, that some time, somewhere, some how, a duck is watching you...

The Horror!!

This is Alan Moore's greatest fear.

I am afraid of Deathclaws from Fallout 3, myself. SO...FAST...
