Phobias,what's Yours?

[bobbs202]

I've got two ( that I know of,mmm,maybe three)
Birds,absolutely terrified of them
Hedgehogs ,I'm rooted to the spot
And can't sit with my back to an entrance/exit

[spathiphyllum]

The only thing i fear is pain. If i was able to not be scared of pain, i could face anything.

[bobbs202]

That's quite an unusual one Spaths

I am terrified of hedgehogs too Bobb - some years back we had a massive influx of them running all through our back yards. And I was in quite a state.

[dunnitall]

Sorry the usual one that dominates these questions.....spiderssss arrgghh.

[banker_frank]

Tortoises
Confined spaces
Earth Worms

[spathiphyllum]

I couldn't imagine being scared of a hedgehog, they are very timid creatures.

[bobbs202]

Dunnitall,unusual enough but spiders and moths don't faze me ,
Don't what it is about hedgehogs but I'm terrified of them

[Arksided]

Witches and snakes.. I suddenly have goooebumps thinking about them.

[bobbs202]

Witches Ark?
How many have those do you see , lol

[dunnitall]

Bo bs I really, really wish I had other phobias not the spider one. I don't rats and mice....but the Arachnids....noooo way Pedro

[dunnitall]

Sorry my answer was I don't mind rats and mice at all.....just wish I did and not had the fear I have of Arachnids....sighX

[bobbs202]

Ohhh not rats n mice either, mine are increasing all the time haha

[banker_frank]

spath that is the point of a phobia...... persistent, irrational fear of a specific object, activity, or situation that leads to a compelling desire to avoid it.

Mice!! Scared witless of them.

[spathiphyllum]

My fear is rational, so i wouldn't class it as a phobia.

I find hedgehogs cute.. But flappy moths or gangly spiders are alien to the way humans function, so it makes sense to be irked.

[bobbs202]

I can just imagine all the fleas in them and my teeth itch

[banker_frank]

I don't mind spiders but in the past have had a nasty bite from one, therefore my indifference to them is irrational therefore I may have a reverse phobia if that exists.

[spathiphyllum]

"I can just imagine all the fleas in them and my teeth itch"

Ah OK, that makes sense to me.

[mightymouse]

Wasps and hornets.

[bobbs202]

I was stung by a wasp last year on my middle finger, my bag go flung from my hand and onto a lawn up our street, losing all my keys as I didn't think they were in to open part of my bag, it was very painful
