Irrational fears

Post Reply New Topic

I have an irrational fear of moths and butterflies.
They are surposed to be beautiful creatures but they are very creepy to me. Just the way that they flutter and their legs look gross. I will run out of a room if it has one in it.

Do you have any irrational fears of anything?

Not that I know of.

I have an irrational fear of water. Everytime I get my head under water, I get a nasty feeling that I'm about to drown.

I am terified of frogs, that is quite irrational I guess, though I do know the cause.

I think my fears of choking and vomiting are irrational. I mean, sure they're unpleasant things to experience, but I know I'm more afraid of them than the average person.

omg lol storms. It's absolutely ridiculous the extent I'm scared of those things...

I have acrophobia. Not everything bothers me though.

What's acrophobia?

I have an irrational fear of automatic restrooms. The way the lights blink on the sensor makes me feel like I'm being watched... *shudders*

It's the fear of heights.

I have an irrational fear of not having enough money to pay for something, even though logically I know I do, I need to have at /least/ 5 extra dollars (though the more money I have, the better I feel) than my already rounded up estimate of the total cost.

Wasps. I know that no one likes them per se, but I'm absolutely terrified of them.
I also saw that some one said something about vomiting. I'm not sure that I'm terrified of vomiting, as I have a very, very strong aversion to it that makes me afraid when I think I might have to. I go into a panic when someone around me gets a stomach bug. I've had 4 children, and I never, ever once thrown up from morning sickness. I can mentally block it, that's how afraid of it that I am.

Yeah, I hate when my shades arent down. Other than that, its what certain people might do if they see me again. Also just what people will think of me, but thats not really irrational.. Its kind of obvious

Mould, especially if it grows really dense and tall.

I also have, or had, the fear of people looking at me thru the windows! What if they see me naked? Or worse, half naked? What if they see me "stimming"? What if they see me moving around in wierd ways, or dancing around in an excited ADD-ish way? What if they see me lying down a lot and think I'm lazy? What if they see what I'm reading and think it's stupid? What if they shoot me?


Or rather, I mean I HAD this problem, but not anymore. Now I'm either too depressed for social anxiety or too anti-depressed.

I also have the fear of not being able to show the best in me when Im around people, but again thats not that irrational. I also have the fear of being robbed, its happened before, and just last night when I was passed out drunk. Its really hard for me to trust people with my stuff, or at all.
