- 3 really strange fears
3 really strange fears
I'm 16 and I am afraid of balloons, dating, and high ceilings. I did some research and found that the fear of balloons is globophobia and the fear of high ceilings is called altocelarophobia, but I have no idea what scares me about dating. I just want to see if anyone else here has these fears or knows how to cope with them. I know it's kind of weird, but I just wanted to know :)
@MirandaRivera96
i have a fear of flushing toilets without closing the lid first I wonder if our phobias are related at all
People coughing near me. Maggots. Going into deep water not knowing what's near me. 😧
I think that way sometimes see a large body of water. Even swimming pools...:(
Seaweed trapping someone...pulling someone under. 😣
I'm afraid of anything that imitates a living creature (wax figures/dummies), overpaying, and moths..
Being left alone for a long time, eating in the dark (it always makes me feel like I'm going to throw up) and vomiting.
Omg eating in the dark. Yes I know the same feeling, I need to see the food or for all I know its filled with feces and maggots.
Commitment, my future, and i have a fear of public bathroom doors not locking and someone will walk in.
18 years old & terrified of fish, the future & the general human population
Mask, not being useful, and the sound of something scratching on paper....
Death, spiders & being this ill for the rest of my life scares me.
Walking alone at night
Watching scary movies alone
Creaking walls or the house 'settling'
Opening and closing my eyes
I'm going to die alone
My loved ones dying alone or without me
Any gross bug/insect/arachnid. Possibly pregnant women I cant just say "how is your baby coming", I did once and she said "im not pregnant". I also am afraid of my panic attacks themselves (common among people with them)
Clowns, deep murky water and failure- and I'm afraid of high ceilings too. So you're not alone @JetPackBlues17 everyone has weird fears, and everyone is weird, crazy and insanely amazing.

I don't really have 3 weird fears but one of my fears is turned off screens at night. I feel like something is going to come out of it and hurt me. It creeps me out so much!
I'm terrified of butterflies too! Let's hide from the butterflies together, yay! My family often forces me to go into butterfly conservatories when we're near them because they like to make fun of my fear...
Vomiting is my worst fear, by far. I'm also terrified of butterflies and large animals, for example my giant dog, running towards me.
My mom's passed away 2 years ago, and at night I get afraid she'll pop out. Makes absolutely no sense but I get scared. I'm also scared from dogs.
I have a fear of being thrown up on, balloons, and steep, slippery hills.
• Separation
• The sound of someone trying to open the door to come in when I'm in the room
• Others angry/furious facial expression & voice
Birds - including taxidermied birds, real birds, birds circling above me, flying kinda low in my general direction, baby birds, non-flying birds except penguins
Windows at night - I feel if a window is closed (blinds/curtains) before its dark outside then once it becomes dark if I look out the window then a dangerous man will be staring back at me
Flushing toilets - the lid of a toilet must be down before I can flush it if there's no lid (public restrooms) I will hold my breath until I can get out of that stall or restroom
