once you learn not to fear death, there's no reason to fear anything
The only things that really scare me are messing my daughter up or her getting hurt or something happening to me and me not being there to take care of her.
And horses, I am scared of horses, but I know its not rational so dont really think bout that too much. and I just avoid them easily enough
spiders, I would put holes in my childhood house throwing shit at them to kill them. And bridges, i dont like those either.
my worst fear is that all of the pollution that we make will continue and all of the trees will die, which will lead to no oxygen, and no more life on earth eventually. I also fear needles.... I had to get a tetanis shot a few weeks ago and I almost punched the lady in the face when she reached for the needle... she stepped back and had a really surprised look on her face and my mom, who was sitting next to me, had the same look..
My worst fear is being in a small submarine in a swarm of giant squid. Or being buried alive.
going uncontrollably insane
sorry to say but trees around here are already starting to die from acid rain...Quote:

That's the worst case thing, though.
My more realistic fear would be losing my mind and not being able to make sense of anything anymore, but still remembering that I should be able to make sense of it, yet still not be able to.
Or dying slow of something like cancer. Healthy mind and healthy parts of the body yet still doomed to uncomfortable death and waning health until the day it finally kills me. Hmm maybe this should be my last pack of cigarettes eh?
I should be more afraid of knowing better about the things I do deep in my heart and yet still doing those things that fuck me over, like I've been doing my whole life huh? Come to think of it I am pretty afraid of myself most of all.
Oh man, I fear this more than death itself. I have suffered from stomach problems for as long as I can remember and if a toilet is not easily accessible, I start to get nervous - 'cause you never know when diarrhea is going to sneak up on you.Quote:

We finally pulled off the highway and got to a gas station. I ran to the men's room. NO TOILET PAPER! So I actually ran to the Women's room (locked the door behind me) and let it all out.
Single worst experience of my life. The point of this little tale? It has only enhanced my fear of sudden diarrhea with no toilet around.
Sadly I have a lot of fears/phobias that have developed over the years.
My worst fear is dying. The idea of not existing scares the bloody shit out of me. Death is such an unknown.. is death the end of consciousness? Is there nothing or is there something? I hate not knowing and I can't think about it very long or I start getting ill.
I have a large fear of suffocating. I can be in a wide open area but if the air is stuffy (hot humid air) then I start freaking out.
I have a fear of insects, especially arachnids.
I have a fear of unstable high places. I'm fine on a plane for instance, I can look out the window and enjoy the sites but I'm scared shitless of say standing on a ladder or the edge of a long fall, like a cliff side or roof.
