Do you have any genuine phobias?

[-:Undertaker:-]

Do you have any genuine phobias where by you act irrationally around something?

I have a genuine phobia of spiders where i'll literally scream, run like a madman and feel shaky from coming close to spiders. I literally despite them and can't think of anything more nightmarish than coming into contact with them. Another phobia or fear rather I notice I have is when I am standing on walls or a ladder over 6ft high, my leg starts shaking uncontrollably which actually then makes it dangerous for me when I know I am more or less perfectly safe. It's been annoying really when I want to reach something like to cut a branch back and then that starts.

How about you?

Mine also used to be spiders but at my old house I'd see them a lot in my room so I don't really care anymore. As long as they don't come near me I'm fine. I had a spider that lived in the top corner of my ceiling and he'd just chill there. Named him Percy, was great.

My real fear is being trapped in small spaces. Can't do it I'd lose my mind

But I mean, I'm scared of a lot of things like fish and empty spaces and stuff but I guess it's not a genuine phobia

[Absently]

I think my only genuine phobia is of pigeons. They scare the living daylights out of me! I try to avoid them at all costs. I remember when I was in town a few months back and was on the phone to an estate agent and ended up screaming down the line because one flew at me. I was so frightened.

the dark

i hate walking alone in the dark too idk it's scary

Sheep. If I'm driving along and I see them, it's quite dangerous; you know, living in Wales and that has it's downfalls.

I'm scared of a lot of things too, like all insects, the dark and locking the front door at night.
