This. If there's one thing I'm especially afraid of, aside of my apartment being bugged/cameras or uh, other stuff typical of people like me, it's this.

Protip: Don't raise kids in a fundamentalist, evangelical cult under the guise of Christianity.

I just am training myself on bow and sword play. Dem zombies gonna be scared of me bro. Haha

Social Isolation. Im always in this state of worry that I'll lose my closest friends/they'll turn their backs on me. I've already had it happen recently and its really destroyed my confidence about being a good friend. Like what did I do wrong? Why am I not good enough? It's caused me a lot of depression.

I dont like bugs. Or spiders. But I try not to kill them if I can help it.

I hate thunder and lightning. When I was younger and living in NH, lightning struck the flagpole right outside my house and shook the whole building from the force of it hitting the ground. Been terrified ever since.

I fear dying alone and dying young. I want to live a full life.

And most of all, I fear going blind. I have glaucoma, which is already slowly deteriorating my vision and eventually I will be blind. But I fear waking up one day and not being able to see. I wont be able to read or roleplay or watch my favorite shows. You dont know how much I long for a cure so that I can preserve my eyesight.

I'm sorry to hear that

dang, I hope something gets sorted out that can stop it that would suck so much

I fear the dark, cockroaches, and losing a loved one. Now please be aware I have an explanation.


My fear of the dark comes from my vivid imagination. If I open my eyes in the dark I automatically believe I see figures, creatures, or humans watching me. Once I woke up in the middle of the night 3am to be exact and I looked out the doorway of the room and saw a young woman standing there almost like the grudge. Now this wasn't like a shadow no I could vividly see the outline of the woman. So I decided to call my parents name and my grandmother's to the girl since they were the only people in the house, no reply. So I stared at it scared of the thought that it was going to kill me. I was tempted to get up and fight it or turn on the light, but I was too much of a wuss and I like I said it looked like the grudge, HA, I'm not messing with that bull crap. So then I hid my head under my pillow eyes clenched closed and I cried myself to sleep that was probably my worst night ever.

My fear of Cockroaches comes from the fact I believe they hate my guts. My parents say "They're afraid of you as you are of them." haha no. These Roaches freaking run at me when they see me! I have a story too, I was going into my bathroom and there are two lights in there with a wire from each that leads to this small box right? Well upon walking in and turning on the light I saw a Cockroach on that device eyeballing me. So I closed the door and turned off the light and ran for my dad. He followed me back to the room I turned on the light and opened the door and the roach had just disappeared be aware I took like a minute to get there and back. So at this point my parents thought I was hallucinating, so the next day I saw the roach again and I called both of my parents this time we came back to the bathroom and it was sitting there soullessly staring at me an my parents. My dad said "Oh she isn't crazy." I mimicked him angrily and stomped off as he killed the roach. I'm not crazy you see? You may be wondering where the roach hid the first time well... he went into the device hiding from being seen the smart bastard.

This isn't really a story, but I fear losing a loved one on a regular basis because I have yet to lose a loved one or someone I'm close to. I've never been to a funeral at all; though don't get me wrong I've known of people that have died, but I never talked to them to really know them nor did I really care for them. Most people I was supposed to know and love had passed away before I was born. Some say this is a good thing, but fearfully I digress I have not suffered he loss of a loved one because I have few to actually love. So the more this event that will eventually happen prolongs the more I will be distraught of it after it happens. Anyway now you know... that's what I fear.

MC, that roach story tho

And same with the losing your loved ones. I've never been to a funeral or lost someone close either

LMAO I know. At this point I think my parents believe I'm a psychotic lying psychopath .

Omg trypophobia. Ill just say that much. I'm also terrified of imminent pain, hitting the ground at a high velocity, falling, heights ( to an extent ), death by starvation or thirst, zombies ( thanks InsaneShadow ), being lost at sea...

I think that's it.

Baboons.

Technically it's because of a dream I had as a child involving museum primate specimens with no skin on their faces, but I'd have gotten over it faster if they weren't so HORRIFYING.

I mean who decided to glue an evil dogs head on a monkey, rub the fur off of it in random places, then give it the temperament of a psychopathic murder toddler?
