3 really strange fears

JetPackBlues17 August 17th, 2015

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 :)

I'm afraid of anything that imitates a living creature (wax figures/dummies), overpaying, and moths..

I'm scared of the dark, bugs, and mostly of all pain

Oops forgot to add: I'm also scared of rejection and failure.

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.
