What are your fears?

you are

Some of mine:

spiders, roaches......most bugs,
public speaking, but i'm getting better,
heights,
drowning or choking,
and i'm sure there are others that i can't think of right now

Snakes.....they should all have their heads chopped off with a shovel!

Oh yeah....and public speaking -- but I never ever have to do that so it's not really a concern!

Abookamongstthemany

that effort might be futile....gotta push those thoughts away and push on.

tight places, being confined or unable to move......buried alive......

My fears:

my parents dying
being trapped in a very tight space
my fingertips being pierced with a pin (when they need blood)
Losing financial security

chicks.

public speaking.

getting blood taken out. One time, I was getting 4 or 5 vials of blood pumped out of my skinny teenage arm. Everything was going okay until......I looked down at my arm and saw blood just spewing into a little glass vial. That was it for me. Next thing I knew I was laying on the table with three nurses hovering over me.

Losing my penis to a whore with disease...

I even have visions of my dad's funeral....or the image of my dad if he outlives my mom.

I'm afraid of garbage disposals. One time my sister dropped a silver fork in the sink when it was on and she started to put her hand in to pull it out and I screamed. I've been afraid of them ever since.

I'm afraid of being killed by a semi-truck on the freeway when it's snowy.

I've had nightmares of my son drowning in black water and being unable to see him to pull him out. But now that he can swim, it's not so much a fear as the memory of a fear.

Those three are the only ones I can think of.

Hmm...public speaking is definitely one of my fears. One of my parents dying would also probably be the worst day of my life.

Slip Kid

going blind

headaches

and sometimes life

mookeywrench

failure is a fear of mine

and not so much a fear as much as it makes me nausous (sp??) are shots/injections and large blood blisters.

I HATE reading in public ever sense seventh grade when I wrote a story about my dog dying and had to read to my class. I made almost everyone in my class including myself cry and ever since then when I read in class or where ever I get all shaky and teary eyed. But the thing is I can get up and talk about random anythings and be perfectly fine. Im good with improv stuff but when I have to read it pshh....I lose it.

change is a major one for me.especially if it involves being taken away from my amazing friends and family.

then second probably going blind
thats about it really

My greatest fear is if any abuse, kidnapping, or death happened to my children.


I don't like speaking in public but I don't fear it. I could survive the experience and grow from it. Anything that gets me out of my "comfort zone", is probably a good thing.

Fear of change is hard, fear of meeting new people is anxiety-ridden but I can become a better person by living through those fears....


if I something happened to my boys....I am done.

Octopi and Sting Rays, so friggin creepy. I think it's just how slowly and smoothly they move only to attack. For some reason sharks don't really get to me though.

I think about what the other would be like if the other died....did that make sense? And who would go first and really stupid things like that!

And sometimes the funeral....not too often though....make myself stop with that one....

AARRGBHGHH!!!! I'M A FREAK!!!! :eek:

yeh i was totally nekkid

LOL u nut

i have a fear of my parents dying too- in fact i had a dream last night that one of them died and i also fear dismemberment. i hear about people losing their fingers or hands all the time (i grew up in a factory town). :(

you are

bump!

Hands bound

Being disfigured.

After the boiling water incident, I almost lost it. I still am really paranoid about the marks it left on my chest and stomach. But I'm getting better.

I'm also scared of heights, spiders (especially the ones you find when you pull back the shower curtain and they're just sitting in the damn bathtub like they belong there....ew), JUNEBUGS, car accidents, dying alone...I am not afraid of death, I just do not want to die alone, I'm afraid of losing any more loved ones....

The Waiting Trophy Man

public speaking, definitely. i could even be in a room with 4 other people and when it's my turn to speak, i can barely get through it. that's my biggest fear today, i guess. when i was a kid, though, my worst fear was hearing the words "after school" meaning some kid wanted to fight me after school. i was deathly afraid of getting into fights as a kid. bullies terrified me. i was such a pussy. today, i'll give someone a go if they have a problem.

I'm afraid of anything ever happening to either of my kids.

I get a little nervous everytime I have to take my youngest son to see his cardiologist. He had 3 open heart surgeries before he was two and a half years old. He's almost 7 now and doing great. He's been doing terrific since he was 3 but there is that little nagging peice of me that always worries about something not being just right. I guess it's something I can't control and that drives me nuts!!

this may sound lame. i dont fear anything

Fear of the unknown

The Future - Thinking about my future scares me. Too many questions race through my mind.
