I'd rather make mistakes than break.

I haven't seen a topic on this yet so I decided to ask. If this has been posted before, the mods that be have the permission to thwap me into the next century.

I personally know someone with insectophobia, but she won't admit it. And it's not just insects in general, it's flies.

Here's the big list of phobias for those of you who don't really know what you're scared of. If you don't want to scroll through all the different phobias, just type Ctrl+F and type in a keyword for whatever you're scared of. A little trick I picked up along the way -- basically because I'm always on the computer.

Like my friend, I actually have insectophobia, too. I actually like bugs though. Love worms and flies and caterpillars and moths and probably any other kind of insect you can think of, but for some reason I am deathly afraid of snails.

I really don't know, I can take spiders and centipedes and other creepy crawly things, but I can't stand snails. I'm insane, really.

So yeah, what kind of phobia do you have?

Mucho love

Alyson
