Phobias

[KnowYourOnion]

no
my favorite phobia is hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia: the fear of long words.

Oh the irony

I have mild claustrophobia. I mean, not something that I'll go apeshit bananas at the mention of the word "crypt" or anything, but I am afraid of being in a small room without being able to move.

Fear of needles. I've refused the swine flu vaccine even though my entire family has it. I can only see myself accepting a needle if it was a vaccine for every disease ever, or I was in the hospital.

What would you do if you got diabetes?

Do you mean your whole family has the swine flu or has gotten the vaccine for the swine flu?

 

[Boneasse]

Zemmiphobia - Fear of the great mole rat.

Seriously though, I've got a slight issue with Odontophobia - Fear of teeth or dental surgery.

They've all been vaccinated.

None for me. I have no real big fears.

Arachnophobia. I agree with the Dragon Age comments, some parts were immensely disgusting. The worst game spiders are still in Dark Messiah of Might and Magic. I couldn't even keep my feet under the table. I kept feeling like something was crawling up my leg. And I had to constantly scratch my arms and hair to make sure the tickling feelings weren't spiders.

Other fears, which I don't think qualify as phobias, are fearing my teeth will crack or snap or come off completely. Incidentally, I'm extremely reluctant to go to a dentist.

 

[Arkvoodle]

Enochlophobia- fear of large crowds.


Christmas shopping is my personal hell.

 

[dfcrackhead]

Anyone touching my throat makes me tense up unbelievably I have no idea why, but if you touch any part of my neck except the back I start squirming and making you move your hand

 

[whycantibelinus]

I am absolutely terrified of needles. The pain is no big deal and when it happens I'm fine with it, but the thought of something so sharp stabbing into my skin is enough to make me hyperventilate.

 

[Aerodynamic]

Im am currently afraid of heights, water, knives, crowded areas, and certain areas if los angles

 

[terzil]

Insects (don't know the word for it) especially larvas... *shiver*

I also don't like being touched or in crowds.

 

[Starnerf]

I don't have any phobias that I can think of. I'm only afraid of heights if there's no railing to hold onto. If there is, take me up as high as possible, preferably with a see-through floor. So I have a fear of falling from heights, which I think is a perfectly rational fear.

 

[SLy AsymMetrY]

Don't have any phobias. Not fearless, just haven't found anything that really scares me in the deeply psychogical way that phobias do.

 

[Ekonk]

The sea. Honestly. It's fun to look at and fun to swim in (provided that it's warm enough), and waves make nice relaxing sounds, but try to imagine the unfathomable depths beneath it...

Plus, drowning is a fucked up way to go.

Achluophobia- Fear of darkness, Acrophobia- Fear of heights, Aichmophobia- Fear of needles or pointed objects, Arachnophobia- Fear of spiders, Coulrophobia- Fear of clowns, claustrophobia- Fear of not being able to escape/veing closed in, Necrophobia- Fear of death or dead things, Paraskavedekatriaphobia- Fear of Friday the 13th, Pediophobia- Fear of dolls, Phasmophobia- Fear of ghosts.

Coulrophobia- Fear of clowns

Both scare the hell out of me...

 

[Clueless Hero]

Is they're a phobia of goats? I've had one ever since I got mauled at a pumpkin patch when I was six....
