[shortie09]

can you guys name any odd fears?


here's a couple...pretty common though...


like claustrophobia ((fear of enclosed areas))


and


acrophobia ((fear of heights))


and


agoraphobia ((fear of being helpless in an embarrassing situation, esp. dealing with open or public places))

Eh, I hate having fears. Weaknesses, you know? Everytime I find myself scared to do something, I just do it .. you know, to prove it wrong. I don't like not being able to do some shit, so I do it anyway.

However, I've never been able to conquer my fears of boiling water, heights, or swimming, as lame as that is.

Everytime I try to get any further than the shallow end, my heart pounds like it's gonna break outta my chest, and the blood rushes right outta my face. It's just super-scary.

Everytime I try to get near boiling water or cook with it, I get the same reaction with my heart, but l start to get a little dizzy as well. It's not safe .. that fear must've come from when I was younger, my ma dumped a pan of boiling water from the stove on my arm.

And when it comes to heights ... well, that's just hell for me. I mean .. wow.

Nevertheless, the whole fear aspect really annoys me.

same here; i hate being controlled by my emotions. not nice.


i can't stand heights. at this water park, there was this really huge slide, so i climbed way up and was kind of fine, until i looked down. my legs started shaking, and i felt weak in my arms and stuff. we went up only to find that the electricity had been shut off, so we had to climb back down. my cousin slipped on the stairs and ended up with a huge bruise on her arse. luckily, i didn't sliip, or i might have screamed my head off...
