"No I can't shoot him" "GOD just do it! He can't see you Options

[Bonobo]

Okay so I'v been picking up on a few really weird fear habbits.

1. I have to check behind the shower curtain before using the bathroom.
2. I have to chec my closet before going to bed to make sure no one is standing in there
3. I can't stand by my bed in the dark for fearing someone is going to grab my ankle.
4. I imagine people arguing over to shoot me or not outside a dark window.
5. I can't go into the basement without searching the entire area, and still after that I feel uneasy.

THOSe are my biggest fear habbits. Maybe I'm just weird and paranoid. Do you have/ever had weird fear habbits? POst them go go go!

holy shit im exactly the same

[tokyo-rose]

I have a similar fear to your #3: Sometimes when I'm sitting on the living-room couch at night, I'm afraid something will grab my ankle. So I sit with my legs crossed, feet clear of the floor.

Occasionally when I return to my room after taking a shower, I imagine that I'll find a corpse on my bed or hanging from the ceiling... I don't know why, but the thought usually doesn't occur to me too often.

Your paranoia isn't that weird. I can understand it.

[brooklyneast05]

when i go to the kitchen late at night, i try act really calm going back to my bed, but half way back i always flip out and run the rest of the way

[superficial]

Everytime I go to the bathroom downstairs at around 12-5 AM, I have to check the window, because when I was younger, there were these rapists near our neighborhood that escaped and is on the loose, and I thought they would come through the window and kidnap me.

[Note]

I have that feet grabbing thing to. I can't stand to sit on the side of a bed for more then 10 seconds.

wow, thats really strange bcuz I do all of those things too.
haha.
I have to put my tv on sleep cuz I can't stand to be in the dark with my closet that doesn't close.

[AthenatheGrate]

yeah the bathroom curtain thing
and as far as the ankles
after watching the [lepoucauhn] movie, i cant stand next to a pic-up truck at night for too long

[Gigi]

I can't sleep with my neck exposed. I have this weird fear that someone will slit my neck while I sleep.

lolz
i do that too

[MissFits]

I HAVE SO MANY OF THE SAME FEARS!!!
It's such a relief to know I am not crazy (or if I am everyone else is crazy too)

When I shower I am always scared to close my eyes when I am rinsing my hair. I am scared someone will pop out at me.

I have to be completely covered by a blanket or I can't sleep. I guess it makes me feel safe. Like a murderer couldn't stab through the blanket or something

Just the other day I was going to get something from the attic. I had to search the whole thing for half an hour from the stairs before I could get the courage to actually go up there.

[Amaranthus]

I can't look at the clock at 3:15 am because of the Amityville Horror. I also close my closet doors all the way so nothing looks at me when I'm staring in the dark. And, I usually make sure noone's right behind me if I am on the computer.

[MissFits]

And, I usually make sure noone's right behind me if I am on the computer.

I do the same thing!!! Oh my goodness!

[Amaranthus]

I do the same thing!!! Oh my goodness!

I know, I get so f**kin scared sometimes!
Less now than before.

[StandardEdition]

haha I cant close my eyes when I rinse my hair in the shower cuz I'm afraid of the hand that might come out of my hair from the grudge. lol its stupid but I get scared, I dont' wanna feel I freaking hand in my hair.

[livwho]

I don't have any paranoia, but I have strange rituals I go through.
For example: I walk around one side of my bed, and then the other, and then go back and hop in that way. I've done it since I was little, and I think I always will.

[MissFits]

I know, I get so f**kin scared sometimes!
Less now than before.

I always thought I was a paranoid freak, and I guess I'm not. It's so relieving. I feel safe whenever John is around. But if he is sleeping or working or something I am so paranoid. If I wake up at night I HAVE to use a flashlight and check every room for serial killers. If I don't I get so scared it's unreal.

[freeflow]

when i go to the kitchen late at night, i try act really calm going back to my bed, but half way back i always flip out and run the rest of the way

I do that too. Wherever I go in the dark.

[Amaranthus]

Idk I don't mind sitting, reading, or walking around in the dark so much. Unless I hear noises, of course.

[MissFits]

I am glad to see guys do it, too.

And extra kudos to the guys that admit to doing it

[markmejia]

I know what you mean. I used to be really paranoid and ALWAYS check behind the door of the room I'm about to enter. I don't do that as much anymore, but I still find myself doing it now and then.

Also, everytime I'd get back home after going out, (this one's pretty intense) I'd call out loud in my house telling them to get the hell out.

And you thought you were paranoid.

[Bonobo]

HAHAHAHHAHA lmao so true and sometimes I spill my milk or ice cream so then I have to go back downstairs to get more. Haha.

When I shower I am always scared to close my eyes when I am rinsing my hair. I am scared someone will pop out at me.

Hahahah me too I have to check outside my curtain before, and then I rinse my hair really fast. haha.

If I wake up at night I HAVE to use a flashlight and check every room for serial killers. If I don't I get so scared it's unreal.

I hate flashlights becaus eyour skimmign across teh room and then BAM! theres the killers face. Well thats what it is in the movies. lol

Also, everytime I'd get back home after going out, (this one's pretty intense) I'd call out loud in my house telling them to get the hell out.

Hahah I only do that when I walk in the front door an dlook up the stairs and see my dog not looking at me but straight at the air (down the hallways I cant see). Then I flip. lol

You should stop coming back and forth and just stop coming.

[arcanum]

I do that too!

I always feel uneasy when I'm walking down to my friends basement by myself.
And I always check behind the shower curtain, too.

[lovescream]

when i go to the kitchen late at night, i try act really calm going back to my bed, but half way back i always flip out and run the rest of the way

lol i do that too.
and sometimes, when i feel really paranoid, i just run all the way. >_<

i'm always scared that there's someone on the other side of the curtains while i'm showering. I think I'd hear the door open. So I had to get the curtains changed to clear ones and now I feel a lot more secure. :D But still, when I duck down my head to rinse my hair, I have to look up like every second 'cause I swear I hear the door open. D:

[karmakiller]

When I shower I am always scared to close my eyes when I am rinsing my hair. I am scared someone will pop out at me.

Whenever I was younger and I'd walk into the bathroom I'd have to pull back the shower curtian and check to make sure that there was no one there. When I was really little I had a bad dream that some guy was sitting in there waiting to kill me. I was a strange kid.

I don't really do weird things like that anymore, besides the fact that I run up my stairs rather than walk. Someday I'll trip and fall and break something. LOL. Dee tumbling down the stairs hitting her ass on each step.


I usually shower with my eyes closed, because I'm so tired when I wake up, ha.

Reason for edit: forgetfullness

[Jennifer]

I do the running thing allll the time, I just cant walk it. But I find it worse to run cause it makes my eyes see things that arent there like a quick flash of light or something. Makes me even more scared than I originally was.
Plus, it may sound stupid but I can't sleep when it's dark. But only if it's pitch black dark and I cant see anything - that's when I can't take it. I can't stand not being able to see anything. I HAVE to put my TV on.. cause that's just the right amount of light basically.

[Crash2]

I hate taking out the trash at night. It's not that I live in a bad neighborhood, but... I don't know, I always think that there's a possibility of someone being out there, waiting.

Also whenever I go into my room, I ALWAYS have to look up at the ceiling to check if there's a scorpion up there. There have been a couple of times in the past when they've been up there so it's a habit now to check. :-/

[datass]

Okay so I'v been picking up on a few really weird fear habbits.
3. I can't stand by my bed in the dark for fearing someone is going to grab my ankle

THOSe are my biggest fear habbits. Maybe I'm just weird and paranoid. Do you have/ever had weird fear habbits? POst them go go go!

alright i do something similar to that too, i'm so afraid of some random person or thing hiding somewhere in my room.

if i opened a door to a room and its dark inside i freak out and turn on the lights as fast as i can. i can't stand dark place ):

[toxicity584]

I totally have the rituals thing going too:
1. I have to always shower the right side of my body first and then the left.
2. I have to get dressed in a certain order and I will not put on pants or shorts without having socks on.
3. I always sleep with socks on at night for fear that something will eat my toes.
4. Whenever I shoot dice I always lick the tips of my fingers and windup and shoot like I am a baseball pitcher.

[arghrawr]

I think I've done most of these at one time or another.
I can't be in a room with mirrors with the lights out because of the whole Bloody Mary thing.
I have to sleep with the door opened too cause I always have this feeling something's watching me and I don't want to be stuck with it.

[synthase]

LESSON LEARNED:
stop watching all those scary movies! They can really get you in the head

Hahah I check behind the shower curtains because I'm afraid of spiders

[Uronacid]

I can't help but laugh when animals die. Even my own.

[xtwitchyx]

I can't stand taking a shower or bath when everyone in the house is sleeping. Because sometimes it seems like someone is always standing on the other side of the shower doors. I hate that. When I wake up and start going downstairs, I always feel the need to run the rest of the way down because it's like something is behind me. Then I do the same thing as I'm leaving one of the other rooms to go back upstairs. I also don't like windows when it's really late at night and dark inside the house. I always think that I'm going to look at one of the windows and find someone or something standing there watching me. I also have that fear of not being able to stand by my bed in the dark because I'm afraid something will grab my ankle or foot. I don't like my feel dangling off of beds either. Plus when I cover myself up at night, I have to have the blanket wraped around me tightly, especially my feet. All because I think that a hand or something will reach up under the blanket and grab one of my feet if the blanket isn't wraped tightly around them.

When I was little, I had a fear of dolls. Like those little baby dolls. Their eyes always freaked me out. As for closets... Closets have never bothered me and still don't bother me. Mine has no door or anything on it and that never seems to make me paranoid or scared.

[LennonLime]

1. I do the checking behind the curtain thing when I go to the bathroom, too. I'm always afraid there's a murderer in there.

2. I can't stand the house being quiet. When I'm sleeping, its ok...but when I'm home alone I always have the TV going or something.

3.I always close the shutters downstairs when it's dark out, because I think people will stare at me from outside.

4.my really weird one is that because I have really bizarre dreams at night, I always hallucinate and see things that arn't really there, so Ihave to get up, grab a golf club or something, and search the entire house for killers.

[1angel3]

when i go to the kitchen late at night, i try act really calm going back to my bed, but half way back i always flip out and run the rest of the way

I do that too but I don't run, I just speed walk the rest of the way back to my room. First, I'm afraid someone is coming after me, and second, I don't want to wake my dad up.

I always get these weird fear/habits after I watch a scary movie. After awhile I stop doing it. Also I can't walk down the street alone at night, because I'm afraid a drive-by is going to happen, and someone is going to grab me and rape me.

[Sandraaa]

when i go to the kitchen late at night, i try act really calm going back to my bed, but half way back i always flip out and run the rest of the way

HAHAHAHAHA! ROFL. I do that too.

[EddieV]

^ I'm a ninja with that.

[ersatz]

when i go to the kitchen late at night, i try act really calm going back to my bed, but half way back i always flip out and run the rest of the way

I do the same thing! I also can't look out windows at night because I think someone's going to pop up in the darkness.

[datass]

^I get the same thing, even if I am 3 floors from the ground.

[toxicity584]

When I am on the subway, I always sit in the first car because I am scared that a monster is going to come and attack us from the last car.

when i go to the kitchen late at night, i try act really calm going back to my bed, but half way back i always flip out and run the rest of the way

haha I do that! And when I use to have my older bed (one that you can put stuff under) I would always jump in bed because I always had the fear someone was under my bed and where going to grab my ankles or cut the back of my foot.

When we first moved in to the place I live now, in the first room I was in our crazy next door neighbor use to bring his dog over to our house and would look in my window. Eventually I finally moved in to another room and I guess he moved away o_O

When I'm at other peoples houses, I always check behind shower curtains. I've always been paranoid about that, or I was going to look behind it and there was going to be a dead person in the bathtub >_>

[clarity]

I always check the ceeling before I go into my room. Ever since "When A Stranger Calls", I almost ALWAYS check.

See, before I was so scared of things, but now reading this topic, its opened my eyes to the possibilites and now I'm going to start doing some of the stuff you guys do too. >_>

Oh yeah, and I'm always afraid someone's going to murder me in my sleep, but I feel so safe if i have blankets surounding me or something. It's weird, but idk. lol >_<

[Bonobo]

^^ hahaha me too some thigns are making me paranoid
