My last journal has made me very curious about this topic? what scares you and why? What gives you nightmares and do you have any phobias?
Mine would have to be....hmmm let me see? there is very little I am scared of in respect to what the population is usually scared of? I love heights, love getting injections..., love getting piercings, love going to the dentist, dark places don't scare me? I don't believe in ghosts or anything paranormal, Blood and gore don't phase me in the slightest, I love insects, arachnids, rodents reptiles, bats etc...but there are two things I am very afraid of. One is space, it just freaks me the fuck out... I hate watching documentaries about space because it reminds me of the vast expanses of the universe and how mortal and insignificant mankind is

the other thing that terrifies me is deep water... the thought of it just makes me panic... you don't know whats down there and I always panic I will lose sight of the surface. If I can see the sea-floor or continental shelf (whatever its called) then I couldn't care less >.>
( and death...though I am sure everyone is terrified of that, but I don't believe in an after life so it being the end of my consciousness makes me sad and scared *even though I will be dead so I won't know*...I am too young to worry about these things right?
)
I did get mostly over my fear of dogs by forcing myself to pet my friend Steve's mom's Collies. I thought they were the most beautiful dogs I'd ever seen in my life. He knew that I was scared of dogs and would get out of the car before me to make sure they were held in check... and then I'd go over to them and give them love. My claustrophobia hits mainly whenever I've been travelling way too long in a car.
The only other 'fear' I think I have is more of me being paranoid. Any shadow that seems just a bit off can send me into a panic attack. So I guess I'm kind of afraid of the dark? Lol. More of what could be in it, really.
I just don't like to see em in generall and I don't like to be in one room with more than one of theese things.
The fact that They are liveless objects which look like individuals, but can't change their expression or move, seems similiar to corspes to me. In horror movies/games I like to see them. Because when I watch a horror movie, I want to be scared, feel the scary atmosphere. And they are just what I find scary to look at. I think no one can explain where their phobia came from. I think it has to do with the dolls in the bed room of my mother, where I slept as a child.
also when I was a child, I was very scared of the thought to be trapped alone in one room for years or even for a livetime. I knew about the cases where this really happened. For example Kaspar Hauser. The thought of that gave me nightmares.
I am randomly petrified of spiders out of habit. -- When I was younger I used to pretend they freaked me out (long story) and it became a habit, so I only think they scare me... but they don't. Sort of. IT'S COMPLICATED. UGH. ;A;
... but I have a phobia of anger.
Anger can freak me out to the point where I feel suicidal.
yeah my fears are like the common ones, but i got them all at once lol and im pretty sure i could list more if i think about it
Talking in Front of people. I'm so shy...
