I was scared of being burned alive in a house fire. It no longer bothers me.

Terrible disfiguring diseases (lexical knowledge), wolves (there were none in DK) - and spiders (We lived in an old countryhouse).

I was scared of going down slides and going high on swings and climbing things and swimming and skating and riding bikes and dogs and lots of things.

Wasps. Still am. Crippling phobia.

Also, when I was very young, road sweepers.

Urinals, showers, and Fruit Gushers for a time (I saw the old commercials where someone's head would turn into a giant fruit after eating one and I was terrified that would happen to me).

I used to get scared watching the revealing of the bad guys at the end of Scooby Doo episodes. The occasional Courage the Cowardly Dog episode also spooked me out a bit.

I also used to be afraid of Michael Jackson (when he was white lol - I don't know why it just creeped me out, especially after watching some video on YouTube that displayed the transformation of his face).

Osama Bin Laden was another one. The thought that he was still hiding out there scared me. I couldn't look at a picture of his face for longer than 2 seconds, and I remember watching a South Park episode that had him as a character and I watched it late at night by covering my face and just peeking during his scenes. :lol:

I was also afraid of mice and I still am.

I was terrified of bees because I am allergic to their stings. Same with mosquito bites. I'm still very cautious around them, as would make sense :D

Fireworks, an episode of the Simpsons with the evil baby sitter, Moths, Wasps, heights and falling and going upside down. Though I'd gotten over that a long time a go after going on a few Rollercoasters and I really enjoy going upside down now.

Not having friends because my mom, even to this day, tells me that I can't have friends at all.

I do have some friends, my GF, and some people here on WP all behind her back! :lol:

Can I admit that I'm actually used to be afraid of cats? :lol: Of all things?

But then, that was just one time. I was 5, then there's this kitten. Despite that I know what a cat is, it was loud and it was approaching me instead of running away. And it's sort of following me for a week straight or so whenever I'm outside the gate.


Then I was afraid of death and dying. Or so I thought.
And then I was afraid of living as a cripple for most the rest of my days.
