Hmmm...

Most of my phobias aren't too extreme, meaning I don't lock myself in my house all day, or cry myself to sleep when I think about them. :P I'm just scared.

Acrophobia- Fear of heights.
Bacteriophobia- Fear of bacteria (I always have to wash my hands after touching anything that isn't mine, and I carry around hand sanitizer like there's no tomorrow).
Claustrophobia- Fear of confined spaces (Whenever I'm in a small space, I REALLY start freaking out. One time, I was sitting in my dad's van while he was talking to some dude at Les Schwab. It was a HOT day, and the windows were rolled up. I was starting to breathe rapidly and freaking out that I was going to die. XP So I opened the door and got some air in. Other times I start freaking out is if I'm looking for something under my bed.)
Contreltophobia- Fear of sexual abuse ( I think everyone should have this on their list).

I could go on... but I'm not going to. I can say this are the big ones!


Barophobia- Fear of gravity. I'd hate to be that person!
Bibliophobia- Fear of books. :O!!!

Mine are:

Apiphobia- Fear of bees (I'm also alergic to them)
Arachnophobia- Fear of spiders (I have this big time)
Coulrophobia- Fear of clowns (Though i can deal with Ronald McDonald, I don't see him as a clown)
Acrophobia- Fear of heights (This one is weird for me. I can stand to be up really high, like on the Space Nettle, or on the top floor of a really high building, and I can look out the window of either, but I cant get up on a ladder without freaking out, and I absolutly can't stand rock climbing.)

I am terrified of being chased up the stairs. My brother does it to me all the time and I scream so loud that I end up getting yelled at because I'm making so much noise. But it's really not fair because that little brat knows I'm afraid of being chased up the stairs and he does it anyways :evil: . Haha.

The fear of long words...I was almost about to faint when I typed that word above...

...I don't know, I guess the fear came during my 3rd grade spelling bee...

Oh and someone said something about getting chased up the stairs, well, whenever I go up or down the stairs in the middle of the night I have to go sideways cus I always think I'm going to get shot at or something. And I always think it's going to be an arrow too for some reason, right in the middle of my back.
