Right, this is going to sound odd, but does anyone else have a fear of water? Especially deep water, or dark water. A combination of the two is literally the most terrifying thing I can imagine.

Phobia of things that not only pose no threat to me whatsoever, but are there to help me. Dentists, blood tests, etc.
Fuck logic.

Whetstone (12/04/2012) [-] I have claustrophobia but that is because my sister locked me in a suitcase that had a number dial lock built into it. I was 2. If it hadn't been for my mom finding a moving and screaming suitcase a few minutes later, I would have died by suffocating.

infinitereaper (12/04/2012) [-] I thought we were afraid of the dark because we cannot see our surroundings, making it easier for specialized predators to hunt us, a survival mechanism to make us more alert gained as result of evolution from living in nature way back when?

Out of the common fears i suffer from :
I get panic attacks if i see a person sleeping, due to a traumatic experience i encountered when i was about 11; i found the body of a man, crushed under a car ( he was working under it, as the car lift ( usually used to change spare tires, if you get a flat tire ) fell whilst he was working on the car thus the car fell on him and he choked to death. The first thing i saw was right into his dead eyes, around them, a crushed, gray face and he had coughed blood up as well.
Second fear :
Drunk People: Was beaten to near death by 7 drunk people, therefore if i'm not drunk, i can not be near intoxicated people.. gives me panic attacks, as the attack happened for no reason. just being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
