I have a similar one where I find out late in the semester that there was a class I hadn’t been attending and finals are coming up. No idea why I get so worked up though - I’d love to attend just one more semester of college even if it was for failing a class!

When we read to kill a mockingbird in school it instilled a fear about being falsely accused of a crime. Always been freaked out about that.

Needles. I haven’t received a shot since 2011. Being in a doctors office and seeing someone walk by with a needle makes my heart race. Seeing them on tv makes my skin crawl.


Same. Been on TRT for a year and a half and still cannot even give myself the shots. Wife has to do it.

Surviving a plane crash in a the Gulf/Ocean. The thought of swimming around in the dark waiting to drown or a shark to get me

Mirrors. I had a big bathroom vanity mirror fall on me getting out of the shower and frick me up pretty badly. I don't like sitting by mirrors, and I find myself checking them constantly to make sure they are properly fastened to the wall

Me too. I can no longer drive across tall bridges, especially if they’re over water.

This is it for me also. Snakes, spiders, rats etc. don't bother me but I am scared of roaches. Them being "afraid" of humans is a complete myth. They are assholes and know they can scare you.

I have an irrational fear that if I carry a pen in my pants I will puncture my scrotum

Don't know if I call this irrational but fear of heights. I can't even watch this video without my sphincter clamping shut.

Being in the right or left lane on a 3 lane highway. Having to merge into the center lane and a vehicle in the opposite lane merge at the same time. Causing a wreck.

If it's a Louisiana interstate that's probably likely

Snakes. Had plenty of nightmares growing up. shite, sometimes I still see them when I close my eyes. Whenever I am in the woods I'm looking around. Can't tell you how many sticks and branches I've blasted.
