What is your phobia? Share your story here.
I have quite a few fears, from grass, to fire, pain and sex, death, curbs... the list goes on believe me. But my biggest overwhelming fear is definititely letting people down/doing something wrong. I don't even know what, I just feel like I'm always close to screwing up, I don't know how else to explain it. Or why I have it.
Interestingly, and I'm not certain how true this is, but my sister told it me a few weeks ago. She learnt in school that aparently if you have a fear of something and you can't figrue out why you are afraid of that thing, it means that you have repressed the memory where you learnt that fear. In case you did not know all fears are learnt, and therefore in theory can be unlearned. But that is easier said than done, as we all know I'm sure.
Love and hugs to all peoples out there :)
My older brother made me watch the movie ‘It at a very young age. I wouldnt admit that I was scared, but ever since I have been terrified of clowns.
AHHHHH!!!! PENNYWISE STILL HAUNTS ME!!!
I have a lot of phobias, my worst is probably failure, like just a generic fear of failing something, someone, somehow, of doing wrong. My most bizzare is probably fire, to a point where any type of open flame makes me nervous, e.g. a gas cooker or lighter, there's a story there, but I'm feeling to lazy to get in to it at the minute. My most common fear is spiders, they just make me really uncomfortable and I don't really know why lol. There's a lot more to add to the list belive me.
the dark, small spaces (especially elevators can't stand those), being in a place where i'd be trapped if i had a panic attack and needed to leave and get help. i think the last one is agoraphobia but i don't want to self diagnose
I get afraid when someone tries to hug me or get to close to my space

Wow.. thats interesting. I wonder what made you fear them since many people find them peaceful.. Hugs to you :)
Talking to people, so social phobia I guess lol
Well, i really fear clowns (i know, so common) but really... Cockroaches are the worst, even a small one can make me scream, omg and also... There's this phobia of holes? is so hard for me, honestly, i can't see a honeycomb without getting so uncomfortable.
My phobia is hopitals, doctors, surgery cancer illness and death.

wow me too
@affectionatePal8573 Thanks for the comment it is really the fear of the unknown, I get it I understand where you are coming from. Have a great day/night take care.
Death and dying. It just scares me that no one can tell what will happen and when it'll happen. Will it hurt, will I be the same soul in a new life, so I just disappear and if so how does it happen. I see all these shows about everyone desperately clinging to life and doing whatever it takes to be immortals in the show, and it makes me wish I could do that. I'm envious of fake shows where characters have the ability to live foreve.
