what scares you?

[Phasmal]

I dont like enclosed spaces or anywhere in which I cant stand up.
Not keen on bridges over water either.
But what really freaks me out... Muppets. They're just wrong. (Weirdly they have to be Muppet show-muppets to scare me, Sesame street doesnt bother me in the least).

 

[pegi989]

alot of things but the things that really scare my is the fear of the unknown

 

[Roofstone]

Sock puppets..

No, that isn't a joke. They creep me out! The eyes.. The eyes!

Sigh.. I need a hug. Darn halloween

 

[ReservoirAngel]

Spiders, snakes, clowns, being alone in a dark place by myself, vaginas, unexplained noises and Frank from Donnie Darko.

I am terrified of spiders and the dark. I hate the dark. Where I live the street lights are not good at all so my house is pitch black at night.

Use the lights you have built into your house?

Double post, please ignore.

Not to belittle anyone's phobias, but I tend to have more rational fears.
Failure, women, my future, commitment, disappointment...stuff along that line.

women. it's now rational to fear them.

Wow...in hindsight, that sounds kind of stupid, doesn't it...my bad.
I'm a teenager :/

why do your fears all point to a relationship?

Cuz, I just hopped into (and briefly out of) a poor relationship, this was kind of just an angsty blind post.
Also, its been brought to my attention that some of my above "fears" are not, in fact, "rational"
So not only am I a whiny teenager, but I'm a hypocrit. My apologies :/

I am a minor insectofobe; I hate bees and wasps to the degree that I involuntarily flee if they're around me. I also hate moths, butterflies, large flies and dragonflies. Pretty much any flying insect. Beetles also disturb me.

However, watching footage of bees or insects doesn't scare me. I suppose they scare me on a physical level, where my body instantly responds with a "flight" reaction. As for what scares me on a psychological level, mannequins and statues disturb me, especially when they move. Realistic gore also nauseates me. As such, I can't stand to watch anything involving surgery or realistic dismemberment. I was once deeply disturbed by a Jon Stewart segment on the new Mortal Kombat game where they show a pretty gruesome fatality. Haunted me for days and made me physically ill.

On the whole, horror movies don't frighten me beyond cheap jump scares. I used to be very affected by horror, but I've gotten over it thanks to my better half loving them. Nowadays, it's mostly Mortal Kombat-esque body trauma that gets to me. And I can stay away from that 99% of the time.

I wish I could, but I can't since it would wake everyone else up.

Certain people being in charge of the government. Like Margaret Thatcher, David Cameron, Ronald Reagan, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, Richard Nixon, all of the current GOP canditates in the US 2012 elections...

and sara palin being in charge of anything.

And also her, and Chistine O'Donnell.

Just listen to them talk. *shudders*

Agreed.

If those people gain any sort of major military power we will all die, because they are idiotic and impulsive beings.

Also Rush Limbaugh.

*listens to 5 seconds of them speaking*
*start screaming*
*thud*

Being in a very confined space, but with an exit visible. Like in a small tunnel with my arms at my sides, and an opening maybe 100 feet away. I could try to get my arms free in front of me so I could crawl, but I'm not sure I can get them all the way out. And it's hot and stuffy, so bad that you can almost taste how little air there is.

Oddly specific? Maybe. But it freaks me the hell out.

 

[JemothSkarii]

Bees, Wasps, Snakes, some spiders, my ex. My ex is a curious case, because she's never been cruel to me or anything (Well, save leaving me, but that wasn't for the sole purpose of hurting me), but whenever I see her name or are reminded of her in some large way I start to shake, my nose runs, I feel so sick, my chest starts to cave and and I start coughing with the goal of puking.Even though I love her so much, she scares the ever loving crap out of me, even typing this is causing me to shiver and sweat.

no need to apologise, we've all been there!

I really dislike spiders, but I still can kill them if I need to.

I'm not entirely sure why, I'm such a anti-social person. But for some reason I'm afraid of dying alone. Not dying, dying is inevitable and now days it can be a pretty painless experience I'm sure. But dying without anyone who loves you near by to hold your hand or comfort you. That scares the crap out of me.

 

[Blow_Pop]

clowns. but they only seriously bother me in person. If they are close to me I have a very debilitating fear. As in I will be curled in the fetal position crying bawling my eyes out for hours
