i don’t know exactly why, but it has a lot to do with their “slimy-ness.”
snails more than anything. i can’t be near one, or i get major anxiety attacks and freak out.
it also has to do with my fear of insects/animals with SHELLS. for example, crabs, lobsters, turtles, snails, cockroaches.

(not the kind you find in the sand.)
was wondering what the fear of bubbles was called any one know

thats kindaaa …. i think i should get this checked out
off to see the doc..
or to a sikeee ward
or somewhere
lol i cant go no wheres now tho
i tis be at school
=] byeeeeee <3333
I have a fear of hairdressers.
i have a fear of wrists. no one can touch mine and i cant touch other people’s. and i cant stand to even watch them touch thier own.
cutting/scratching/ anything like that on a wrist i will faint.
whenever someone talks about them i cover mine and protect them i keep doing it now that im trying to type about them
i also have a fear of veins they scare me terribly i find them so gross and sickening ahh ugh i get the chills thinking about them.
my last fear is getting shots into your veins. in the inside of your elbow scares me the most. it scares me terribly i will NEVER let anyone do that to me but on the other hand its kinda good cause i will never inject drugs into myself lol
i have a fear of bubbles. it started when my friend burned his arm and then his skin bubbled up. Oh the horror!
I hate slugs too! I love snails though, I think its ‘cos slugs are all exposed and the slimyness can touch you (if that makes sense?).
Also I hate other peoples ‘stuff’ like clothes or shoes or especially things like ‘bathroom stuff’(toothbrushes, hairbrushes, girly products etc).
And wet dishcloths, they are disgusting!
And anything to do with injuring hands, like kids getting their fingers caught in car doors, or nails falling off but that fear is legitimate ‘cos I caught my thumb between a concrete wall I was knocking down and the sledgehammer I was using to knock it down. My nail had to be removed and my thumb got infected and now(7years later) it still doesnt bend properly!
Umm and last thing: fast cars or people messing about in cars(driving silly, swerving for no reason, etc). Again I feel this is legitimate as I was in a car accident a few years back and still have flashbacks and nightmares.
God I’m a right bundle of neuroses aren’t I?!?!
OMG! I am not the only one afriad of Jello! It warms my heart that other people afraid of jello were kind enough to share there thoughts! Jello terrifies me so! I will freak TOTALLY FREAK if you even give me the recipe for jello! It horrifies me that the monster even exists! I have no real reason for being afraid of it, but man, is it scary! I run fevers when people touch me with it, and I can hardly breathe when when I hear it spoken. Anyone else afraid of jello? Email me and we can talk! yoimjohnyj@aol.com
I’m afraid of balloons. Seriously, no one believes me and they chase me with them and sometimes it gets so bad I cry. Usually I’ll just get tense and cover my ears when I’m around them. I think it’s mostly the anticipation of them popping. I’m not afraid of deflated ones, and if I hold the balloons it’s ok because I know they won’t pop. Weird…and fear of balloons is not on any of the phobia list sites.
I have a phobia of throwing up (ugh, i’m shuddering just thinking about it), but it’s not on the list, yet, then again, it is fairly common (sadly)
yep yep…..I have a fear of me or anybody else touching the inside of my wrists or the inside of my elbows. I’m trembling now just typing about it!! My head on the inside is feeling like I am hearing fingernails being scratched on a blackboard…another thing that makes me cringe and want to run!
other phobias–
spiders
my ex-husband kidnapping my daughter
my ex-husband killing me and my daughter and my parents
but I do have good reasons for the last two…although my fear can get out of control and become overwhelming so easily
okay..moving along
fear of never being married again
big birds like cockatoos and cockateels
loud sudden noises
crowds-at times
grocery stores at times I feel the roof WILL fall in on me
the color red used alot in a store –I will have a panic attack and have to leave
fear of if I do ever get married again…he will be violently abusive to my daughter and myself
yes..i am in counseling
yes ..i do take medication ![]()
yes..i am trying so hard to get him put in jail for violently sexually assaulting my daughter for over 5 years on visitation… the wheels of justice are broken..but yes God WILL punish him
ok…that’s all

I have a fear of easy pop top aluminum cans. Is there a name for this?
am really afraid of getting drunk! do you guys have one consise word for this phobia? hope you wont say it’s DRUNKPHOBIA
Yeah, I’m afraid of needles and pulses. I mean, I’m afraid of getting my pulse taken, not them in general. But yeah… my dad is always making fun of me and trying to take my pulse cuz he has to “practice” for school, but he’s just trying to freak me out. But, just wondering, does anyone know the name for the phobia of pulses or blood pressure being taken, cuz I can’t find it anywhere. I think it’s Sphygmophobia, but that’s only cuz I looked up the word for pulse in Greek and added phobia, so I’m not completely sure. Thanks!
I have a fear of odd numbers, although I don’t know the name of it.
This means I must have the TV’s volume on an even number, and only increase it or decrease it by even numbers as well. The same goes for the radio and any other item with numbers which denote volume.

I have a fear of every single color in the world so i just walk around with my eyes closed.
i also am afraid of America. i fear that if i go outside my house i’ll see it.
what im even more afraid of is people making up fake fears like body parts that EVERY SINGLE HUMAN HAS and random food objects that in no way can harm them. i fear that very much.
also kellie: i got that Far Side reference. nice.
I have a fear of buildings falling down while I’m in them. The fear normally starts while I’m in the passanger seat of a car and for some reason I start thinking that there is too much weight on the floor in my apartment or any building and the floor will collapse and I start freaking out or the building I work in will collapse while I’m in it. Once I get inside I’m totally fine and the phobia goes away. Once there were way too many people in a club and all I could think about was that it’s too much weight and the floor will collapse right under us. I hate it and I wish I knew what it was called…if there even is a name for it.
I have a fear of all the bubbles being the same size and in rows like the hexagons in beeswax. When this happens and I’m wshing the dishes I have to fluff it up until it’s gone. Anyone know what that’s called?
I’m deathly afraid of astronauts.
I don’t know why.
I freak out really bad, if i see a picture of one.
Once my friend shoved a picture of an astronaut in my face in class and i started hyperventilating. i always do if i see a picture of one and my eyes start watering and i get a heaviness in my chest like a can’t breathe, and i just really hate them and people breathing loud in my ear.
Anyone know the name for that, or anyone else with that fear?
i have catoptrophobia-fear of mirrors.
they scare the living SHIT out of me!
I have a fear of staplers/staples being played with. Is that related to the fear of pins and needles or is it different?

Fear of clowns: The King of All Weird phobias
Does the name Pennywise tell you something? Maybe the chills, maybe some fear, maybe some hatred, or maybe nothing. Imagine that you are alone in your house, it’s getting dark, you can’t see really well. The door bell rings, you go downstairs very slowly, you open the door and… Pow! A big clown face greets you with an annoying/devilish laughter GUFFAW, GUFFAW, GUFFAW!!!Fear of clowns, together with fear of driving and fear of success, is one of the most known weird phobias and fears.
Fear of clowns, or its scientific name coulrophobia, is an extreme fear towards these hated creatures. It isn’t true what they say: clowns are not funny, cute or good-spirited creatures. Well, maybe they are, depending on who is or who is not afraid of clowns. There has always been ambivalence, since people have managed to label clowns into two types. The good, funny one with fear of driving and the evil, sinister one, that kidnaps people and puts them in the trunk of the car to eat them later. Fear of clowns could be toward both of them. However, weird phobias and fears tend to address the evil clown.
Fear of clowns is more common with children; say ages 2 to 7, nonetheless, it can also be found among teenagers and some adults. These weird phobias and fears are caused by two main reasons:
1) Children grow fear of clowns after experiencing a dramatic situation with a clown in person. It may have been at a neighbor’s party, or a cruel prank the child’s father made. This fear is usually carried to the child’s adult life. A similar situation happen with fear of driving, where a traumatic situation makes the brain to retain that episode.
2) After seeing a malefic portrayal of a clown in the movies, television or media in general.
A Social Phobia
There has been a tendency in popular culture to turn the clown persona upside down, providing it with traits of horror. Fear of clowns as part of the weird phobias and fears have been feeding of human terror since the 70′s. Weary Willie the clown created one of the first cases of multiple personality in the body of the Kelly’s dynasty, father and son. On decade later a whole lot of movies started to give a bigger stardom to these Machiavellian characters. Movies like ‘It’ and ‘Killer Klowns From Outer Space’ really created a culture of fear among youngsters. With other generations, evil clown costumes are very popular in Halloween celebrations, town festivals and parties all over.
All these weird phobias and fears, including fear of driving and fear of dentists are easy to treat. Medication and therapy are valuable options, but sometimes psychological assistance is not even necessary. These weird phobias make me think: There has to be something scary about a bunch of people coming out of a tiny car. That might even cause me a new fear of driving.

Now lets go meet the pope, hang with some clowns, eat some jello and finish it off with intentionally putting peanut butter on the roof of our mouths and go have some fun. lmao

Anyone have the fear of the sight of a gas mask?
I fear melted cheese. I had a really bad experience of choking on melted cheese as a child and it scares the **** out of me since. I cringe inwardly when I see it, any food that contains it, like pizza, has to be cut into really small pieces and I still have to steal myself to eat it….
I have a fear of glass head dolls, would that be considered pediophobia (fear of dolls)?
Oh and I also have a grand fear of my armpits being touched.
If someone is just remotely close to my pits I freak out and I start breathing heavily… and all hell breaks loose if one of my pits actually get touched hahaha I have a freak out break down.
I’m terrified of snails and slugs. I start to freak out if I’m anywhere near them, and on time I found one at the bottom of my stairs and almost fainted. Terrible.
People always think that it’s really weird that I’m afraid of a “harmless mollusk.” It might be harmless, but it still makes me cry when someone chases me with one. XD
Balloons freak me out too. I’m always anticipating them to pop, so if there’s a kid squeezing the crap out of a balloon, I’ll just leave the premises.

i have pediophobia. and the fear of spiders. (i dont know how to spell the word)
I have n phobias at all, except for the coco pops advert with the bowl of milk that a smily face suddenyl appears in and creepy kids voices are singing the theme tune. Now that gives me the shivers.
I have a phobia of ravaoli.

I hate, hate, HATE snails and slugs. They are disgusting. When I was in year 4 someone put some in my lunchbox! I totally freaked!
I have a fear of hole in things like when i squeeze the toothpaste and it bubbles i cant look at it…

Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia, thats just cruel! imagine a phycologist telling you that you have that! I have a fear of slugs, snails and pretty much everything under that category. I’m also afraid of sea cucombers and insects. I just can’t handle gross slimy things
i hav, a fear of chairs. and cottage pie
is that normall?
lol
I’m really odd! I have a fear of stepping on slugs not off slugs, I stepped on one about a year ago and I completly freaked out. The other day when it was raining I was on a feild with my dog and I had to inspect every inch of where I was going to step before I stepped, terrified of stepping on a slug, My worst fears came about tonight when I stepped barefoot onto a slug, I was heaving and almost crying, I got in the shower right away washing my foot with shower gel, about six times, and then scrubbing it with a shower lily with a seperate shower gel, I refused to use the same lily on my body, because I thought it had slug germs on it. I then got out of the shower and got the bacterial stuff and rubbed it all over my toes and feet and then I moisturised it and then sprayed it with perfume.
I also have a fear of thunder and lightning which is called astrophobia
i have a fear of being in open places. whenever i go out to eat i have to sit in a booth or sit at a table by a wall with my back to the wall. seriously, i will drag someone out of the seat if they take the one by the wall. i refuse to sit out in the open lol. and i really don’t like dolls. they are creepy. oh, and i have a fear of things crawling on me when i don’t know what it is. something actually crawled on my a couple nights ago and i freaked out and wouldn’t go back to sleep. it was 3:00 in the morning lol.
you forgot aquadomusphobia – the fear that your house will suddenly fill with water
lol. and i’m scared of the dark. and drowning. =]. =]. =].
I have an awful fear of needles. Mostly the gigantic ones at the dentist office and the ones doctors use to take blood.
I have high cholesterol and a blood disorder so every time i go to the doctor they have to take vials of my blood. I freak out a lot, sometimes to the point where I have to be given valium to sedate me.
Its sad, i know.
I have an incredible phobia of diving. Not scuba diving just diving into a lake of pool. I just can’t do it! So people don’t make fun of me as much i would really like to know the scientific name of my fear. Does anyone know??
I have a fear of bieng in a car in a foreign country. it started when we were in spain and our car broke down and no one could speak english and we couldnt speak spanish.
I have lepidophobia, which is a fear of butterflies and moths (although the term mottephobia is sometimes used as a specific moth phobia).
There doesn’t seem to be a name for my other phobia, which is seaweed, or, more specifically, swimming over or near seaweed. I add my name to the list of people who would like to know.
I’m *not* afraid of normal things, though, like spiders, snakes, or sharks. I think I’m broken.
someone PLEASE tell me
Whats the fear of being touched on the neck by another peson
i can only find “fear of being touched” with is usually about rape or something like that
i cant find anything specific to the neck
and its only people who freak me out when they touch me neck, i dont reeli care about necklaces and scarfs etc.
PLEASE find out ive looked everywhere
Taahnkyouu. xx
I’m a magazine journalist and i write for all the womens magazines in the uk.
I’m looking for a story about someone (preferably a UK resident) who has an unusual phobia that severely affects their life. I need a female angle so it must either be a lady with a phobia or a guy whose phobia affects his relationship with his wife/girlfriend.
These are well paid features and depending on how unique the story it could fetch anything from £300+ (often achieving between £600 and £1,000). The more unusual the story and the more it affects your life, the better chance there is of achieving top fees.
The magazine feature will be written in the 1st person (your perspective), giving the opportunity for you to tell it in your own words.
If you are interested and want to know more please email me at adamarmstrong@hotmail.co.uk
I look forward to hearing from you
I think someone was pissing about with Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia!!!! They must
be!!
And what about the funniest ive ever heard: Anatidaephobia — the fear that somewhere, somehow, a duck is watching you!! Lmao.
But ducks can be scary….lol
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I just read some other weird phobias and I think cotton wool can be scary. The texture of it is so weird..
also – I think if I had any they would be –
fear of blushing in public
fear of very high adrenaline – fighting (physical, and confrontations)
im scared of trains although if I need to get somewhere ill go on one =D just watching them pass and the power of them scares me..
and ive been told my biggest fear is fear of the mind, and the possibilities of the mind. Like it works so weirdly.. nobody knows fully about the power of the brain/mind. And thats terrifying O.o
Now mine is REALLY weird. I don’t know a single person who has it besides me. I’d be happy if anyone could give me a name for it (although I’m pretty sure there isn’t one).
…I have a horrible fear of metal, heavy metal, and screamo music. Seriously. I can’t listen to it. I’ll freak out. I’ll hyperventilate. I’ll scream. Anything to make the music stop. It scares me so much and I have no idea why.
Seriously, once I was in Hot Topic with some of my friends and a screamo song came on the radio. It took all I had not to run out of the room crying.
I have a fear of….
ghosts
toenail clippers (weird i know)
spiders
death
and the colour orange !!!
okay, i get new fears everyday.
they are really weird..
here goes.
—————————————————
being kicked in the bum while being asleep
seagulls
people vomiting on me/near me
vomiting
drying
choking
mashed up food
dirty water
the feeling of dirty hands..
people looking at me
tummy rumbling loudly in a quiet place
being embarrassed
not having a partner
being alone in class
writing the number 5
getting ocd
the feeling of baking soda/talcum powder
getting sick
interjestion
———————————————————————–
i know i have more but i just cant think of them right now.
can someone reply to this and tell me the name of the fear of being scared of seagulls?
I have a fear of people who mock other peoples phobias. Seriously, They are irrational. They aren’t supposed to make sense. Many people need loads of help and support to get over fears, and some idiots on this board decided to put them down because of it. You people are messed up.
P.s I am only talking to those on this board who are stupid enough to do this.
I have a fear of needles, which I suppose is pretty common, but if someone even says the word, I faint! I also have aquadomusphobia. I didn’t know anyone else had it! I seriously cannot be in a building near a lake or a pool or any water whatsoever.
You forgot one:
Alektorophobia-Fear of Chickens
I dont have it but you might want to add it to the list
I agree with you jessi-cool but most of these people are saying about their fears so cant really moan.
Anatidaephobia- fear that somewhere somehow a duck is watching you.
I just want to point out that it’s not a phobia unless it is causing major psychological distress to be around or reminded of a certain thing and you do everything it takes to avoid being near or reminded of the thing that is causing that fear.
It is not a phobia if you are grossed out by something, hate something, or even are just afraid of something. Like… I’m afraid of heights, falling, the dark, spiders and bees, but they’re not psychologically distressing, and I can tolerate them. With a phobia, I wouldn’t be able to do that.
Just sayin’.
Oh, and it has to be severely disabling to normal functioning.
this was weird
well i have a BAD phobia of having needles into even tho i had the flu jabb last week i cried for half and hour and also i took me about 25 minutes untill i finally, agreed to but my mum had to hold me down it was so embarassing :/ – hats the name 4 that thenn ?

I have slight arachnophobia, and a phobia of needles.
I also have a friend who’s deathly afraid of balloons and aeroplane toilets. I think specifically LOUD NOISES. but stll, lol aeroplane toilets…
You pple wth millions of phobias are extremely spaz and messed up.
nah, just kidding, but seriously, if you have more than 10 phobias, GO SEE A DOCTOR
I have this fear that I’m gonna lose my phone. Well, its not really a fear,
but more like this ‘what did I forget’ feeling all the time, even when I have it with me. Probably
because I accidentally washed my 1st phone in my pants pocket, and I lost my 2nd phone on the subway going to a baseball game.
wow there are a hellofa lot of phobias out there. And one i have is the fear of losing my fingers, or fear of windows, or fear of things that lurk outside….. aarrrggh it makes me shiver just thinkin bout it. OH, and fear of pudding, not jello like you weirdos, lol just kidding, but FEAR OF FRIGGIN’ PUDDING.
I have a fear of self flushing toilets. I don’t want them to flush multiple times and waste water– which they always seem to do– so I get creeped out using them.
DONT WORRY ALL YOU JELLO HATERS. im also extremely afraid of jello. ESPECIALLY RED. and i also have chiclephobia- fear of gum. AND i hat all red liquids. excluding blood. I AM NOT ALONE. (: hehe
ok, so i tried looking up a weird O.C.D. thing i have. and all the results i came up with are reliable in one web site, but say otherwise in another web site.
i cant stand it when people touch my wrists. i cant even touch them myself. its hard for me to even think about getting an IV in my arm…..ugh, ok i cant even think about it now…
and i have a weird head nodding thing. its like it twitches and nodds at the same time. i know im doing it and i should be able to control it. but i cant.

HaHa funny as but i have anitiniphobia- a fear of thinking somewhere, somehow a duck is watching you!!!!!
I have anitiniphobia wait is there a duck nearby AAAAAHHHHHH
i have a fear of being made into a breakfast bar cereal
for those people whot think phobias are weird and stupid? why bother coming on this site? :S now they’re the weird ones. get something better to do with your time!
and i’m glad i’m not the only one with a fear of buttons, i’ve had it since an incident when i was like 5, it doesn’t bother me and i don’t feel like i HAVE to get over it. proud of who i am and thats part something that makes me who i am. i don’t see why loads of other people bother wasting there time on finding these things amusing and picking on them like i was..
if i don’t care, why do they!? :S
i have the fear of odd numbers
I’m afraid of women. I’m a big guy and I could beat them, but I was raised up right. The problem is, I feel that women will abuse me emotionally and physically if I were in a relationship with them. It probably explains why I’ve never had a girlfriend. Sometimes I wish I could beat up the bad ones!!! Man, why did my parents have to raise me right???
With that, I’m afraid to go to a psychiatrist, especially female ones, to talk to them about it. With male psychiatrists, I’d feel embarrassed to tell them this. With female docs, I’d feel they would try to make me feel vulnerable and then attack me emotionally. I’m just completely scared out of my wits when I try to get myself to date/hang out with a girl. Having a hearing loss certainly doesn’t help (doesn’t improve my self-esteem).
Phobias: fear of women, fear of (female) psychiatrists (or fear of female medical professionals (MDs/nurses)).
Can maybe somebody help me (without being an idiot aka a “meanie”)?
anatidaephobia is the fear that you are being watched by a duck
I have the biggest fear of RAW MEAT it makes me cry even when its in sight lol!!!
I am scared of the end of the world. I think it has to do with a movie I watched on tv called war of worlds.I am also scared of not being cared about and dying in my sleep.
i have a phobia of looking out of a window at night =/ is that normal? my mind just like tells me that somebody’s watching me :S
I am so scared of sea weed like i actually pass out if i touch it and if i see it i get dizzy and hot , i have no idea why im scared of it lol but i hate it ! even when i see pictures of it i get all shaky.
ooh and im terrified of dirty water , i cant go near dirty water it scares the crap out of me haha
i dont know if im the only one that is scared of dirty water but its nice to know im not the only one with a phobia of seaweed , my dad thinks i am crazy.

i have 1 fear and 1 fear only that is feeling a heart beat (i hate it so much)
I am afraid for my health. I am always thinking “what if…” about myself if I am sick or something. I always over analyze it and think of the worst possible thing. Not good. I also am afraid of getting stalked. I’m afraid of elevators. I always take stairs. I also dont like to sleep in my room by myself. I usually sleep in the living room. I have no idea why. I just feel safer. :/
Grapes give me this weird feeling. I cannot eat them or see them at all or else i’ll start crying and shaking and my teeth get some kind of anxiety feeling. Well the reason why i decided to stop and think about it and try and do something about it, is because i recently started working last week, and my job Imports fruit from Chile, and the main thing they work with are Grapes, yes to my luck. My boss sat a bag of grapes on tuesday and it was so embarrassing because i almost flipped and i started shaking and my co-worker knew about this, so she told him, “i think u should move those grapes from there”. Anyway, Can some one please tell me if you know what this is? and why is it that i cant eat or see grapes.
DOES IT HAVE A NAME?
Oh my gosh, I can’t believe I’m not the only one that’s terrified of snails and slugs! I cannot go near one and if I see someone picking a snail/slug up, I immediately run away because I’m scared they might chase me with it.
Once I played an animal game and a picture of a snail popped up. I screamed and dropped the DS on the floor and ran out of my room.
Is that weird. S:
I have a fear of:
Bubbles
People standing behind me
Darkness (I tend to see and hear things….I have paranoia.)
Being alone
Choosing favorites (dolls, colors, etc… I think they ones I do not choose will kill me.)

Breathing being cut off. (like drowning or being choked)
Glass dolls.
Oh, and seeing or hearing about cuts on someones wrist. I tend to feel it myself and start shaking and crying…
I am afraid of being burried alive.

I have an irrational fear of people touching my names
…is there a name…i think we should invent one if there isnt…i know im not alone on this one…
Does anyone one out there have a fear of green shampoo? If not, than neither do I.
Also, I have a friend who has a fear of touching any food that causes an oily feeling on his hands.
I have a paralyzing fear of satellite maps. I usually hyperventilate and scream whenever I see them. I hate frogs! Ew they are sooo disgusting and scary looking. I also have a fear of people or things touching my neck. I can’t stand turtle necks or shirts that reach for my neck.
One last thing, Idk if this is a phobia but I dislike it when certain people, including certain friends & family members touch my hair. I get paranoid that they’re going to do something weird to my hair/head.
how about coituphobia (or is it coitophobia? idk) fear of having sex (not rape, sex)
Lol fear of snails/slugs? My sister has it, but it used to be much more severe. I used to plant pictures of snails on her desktop background or in her choir folder to scare her. It worked, but now she’s less afraid of pictures of slugs/snails. They still scare her in real life, though. I take advantage of that phobia whenever I can.

and there is a phobia of alcohol and of being drunk but can’t remember the name.
I used to have a fear when I was riding motorcycles called toyotasusposiphobia which is the fear of having a toyota stuck up my ass!

Does anyone know the phobia name for fearing odd numbers?
I can’t seem to find it….and I know I’m NOT the only one that’s afraid of them.
Short story: I use to be afraid of Cotton Balls, until my mom grabbed a few and rubbed them on my hands! I [obviously] cried, but now I’m able to touch cotton balls. The feared how soft they were. :T
So if anyone knows the fear of Odd numbers PLEASE let me know. (:
Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia is fear of long words…
So, you’ve got this guy, who’s terrified of long words, and you say to them, “Ah, yes, it would appear you’re hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobic.”
That’s just going to scare him…
Here are a list of my phobias:
- Spiders
- Clowns
- People touching my wrist
- People touching the back of my ankle
- People touching my neck
- Gum sticking to my hair ( crazy, I know )

For some reason i’m scared chicken close around me in a small place, I’m also claustrophobic, but If im in like a chicken coop or something i’ll freak. Also i’m scared of things that I don’t recognise, not ppl, but animals or things like that.
Hi, I have a fear of certain textures. I don’t know why, but things like the cat’s fur when it goes up, or sumthing like the texture of growing leaves on the side of a house. AAAH.
argghhhh i have a fear of jello too, woohoo i’m not alone, yay! xxxx
I also have that fear Britt, i get really nervous when someone says something many times AHHH IT SUCKS
Can i first clarify that a phobia is only a phobia if it is irrational , for example the fear of dying or drowning is not a phobia they are fears.
Soo yeah , i have a huge fear of masks or more specifically lack or loss of identity.
Another one is the air raid siren , makes me sick to the stomach if i hear it.
and lastly clowns , a rather common one , again it links to the identity thing.
I have tryophobia! It’s a fear of holes and repeating holes. Like seeds, or honeycombs. Gosh, it makes me sick just typing about it. My jaw clenches, I feel like I’m gonna puke, I start to sweat and get itchy, kinda jumpy. It’s awful, and I hate having it. I’m also afraid of overlapping lines… I’m not sure what that’s called, but my brother put staples into an eraser, like 8 vertical and 8 horizontal, so it make a bunch of little squares. I almost throw up whenever he shoves that in my face. *shivers*
Omg! Im not the only one who has a fear of wrists!I cant stand anybody touching their wrists! and a HATE veins, the thought of an ingection in my veins disgusts me! It would totally destroy me if I had to have an ingection in my veins and i would throw up, but to make things worse, I have a phobia of Vomit and Vomiting too! =[
i have this fear of birds…. manily seagulls flying over me
i have always been pooped on by them so when they fly over i try to run away or suymthn

I have a phobia of spiders and most insects ive had it ever since i was little, i think it started when my mom screamed over bugs infront of me when i was little.
lotsa people think the longest phobia is “Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia”, but it’s really
“Pnumonomicroscopicsilicovolcanocoviosisophobia”.
by the way, you won’t find it if you search for it.

Hey does anyone know the technical names for the fallowing phobias :
Fear of wet hands touching
Fear of wet dish rags or cloths
Fear of peanut butter getting stuck to the roof of your mouth
Fear of ladders
Fear of having long fingernails or letting people see your long finger nails.
I have all of these (yes I know im weird) and I was wondering if you could help me find the names for them.
I have a fear of feet and the dark, i almsot barf whenever i see feet, and i hyperventilate whdenever im alone in the dark, also, im always wearing socks and or shoes in my house
my fears:
sharks
spiders
crickets
all bugs
the dark
drowning
bad grades
dentists
i just found out its called trypopphobia, i searched it on google and pictures came up and i almost started crying :’(
My phobias include:
Arachnophobia -Spiders
Glossophobia -Talking in front of large crowds
Myrmecophobia -Ants (i honestly start crying)
Traumatophobia -Getting hurt
I used to have Thantophobia -Dying, but now the idea doesnt seem that bad.
I used to have Acrophobia -Heights, but i thot of flying and how cool it would be and it went away! (i have skydived and it was amazing)
I have a huge fear of jumping into water, or jumping over water if there’s the slightest chance of getting wet. Its not Hydrophobia, because I can swim and water doesnt bother me, its the jumping in part that freaks me out! Does anyone know the name for that??
This is exactly what I was looking for. Now I can do it with no problem
I have a few odd fears:
Clowns
Mascots (like at ball games or disney world, there was this parade going by and i hid behind a pole until it passed, I was 13, not like some little 4 year old which wouldnt b as bad)
Cameras (Having my photo taken or being captured on video, I HATE picture day and spend most of my vacations dodging the camera)
Seaweed (Im afraid itll wrap around my legs and drown me)
Jellyfish (I saw this thing on animal planet when i was 12 and hav been scared of them since)
And my biggest (and weirdest) fear is of the grinch (yes, I know hes not real and he gav xmas back in the end, blah, blah, blah, its normally not a problem but around xmas time he starts showing up everywhere and…..ya)
And my mom is afraid of bridges over water (shell actually stop the car and make me drive across the bridge and then tell me to stop the car so she can get back in the drivers seat), and I hav a friend whos afriad of germs (but only on doorhandles), and my 12 year old brother is afraid of thunder and showers (no problem w/ rain), he takes baths instead which I find disgusting (Its like sitting in your own dirt), and I see no point in taking them to get clean, just my opinion
I think thats it:)
O and I have stage fright if that counts, but I’ve gotten alot better w/ that, its kinda weird for me tho, its not so much talking in front of BIG groups as it is groups of 100 or less (like a classroom), If I had to talk in front of an entire football stadium I think Id be fine, but if its a group of like 1-100 people…not so much:P
I dont really know why but i guess because there dead and because there starring at you but im terrified of taxidermy. Another fear of mine would be scuba diving gear, just the way it looks and how they grip to your body as soon as they get wet scares the S**T out of me…

and vacuums, i need someone in the room if im forced to vacuum.
Paula Deen freaks me out, but i don’t think thats legit.
I think you mean to say: “I’m such a euphobic”, and not “I’m such a euphobia”. Just like someone cannot be paranoia, but only háve paranoia and bé paranoid.

Fear of Trees ~ mostly I’m afraid of trees at night. I can’t stand driving through a forest roadway when it’s dark out. I remember driving home one time & my headlights were on the trees. It was winter so the trees had no leaves. Looking at them made me feel anxious, I’m not sure why though. I began crying & desperately wanted my dad to take the wheel.
Fear of Loud Noises ~ Loud noises really frighten me. I usually get sweaty palms, heart palpitations, and feeling faint. I stay in the school office whenever we have pep rallies in the gym because I panic.

A few times I had to leave sleepovers because I was afraid a tornado would hit -_- I’m glad I have over come most of this!!
Fear of Choking ~ I don’t have this as much anymore. I used to be very afraid of choking on food. If I choked or nearly chocked on a certain food I would never eat it again!! I would avoid it at all costs! I also fear people putting objects down my throat. When doctors use those Popsicle sticks or swabs in my throat :(
Fear of Mirrors in the Dark ~ I’m afraid I will see something else in the mirror…But this is pretty mild lol

Ewwwww! All the slime came off the side of the slug and onto the side of my foot!!!! Double ewwwwwwwwwww!

why are people scared of jello??!! You gotta have a reason. Anyways im not scared of the dark inside my house i love it. But when i go outside at night i get extreamly scared of it. Im scared of whats in the dark like stalkers or someone waiting to kill me or wild animals. I have to at least have someone with me at all times.
im also extremly scared of how i look. Like my face wise. Im extremly ugly without makeup and i hate looking at myself without makeup. I put it on just so i dont have to look at how ugly i am and kno that thats how i really look. And i get even more scared that other people will see how i really look. Esspeacially my friends and boyfriend. He has never seen me without makeup and i dont plan on him going too. So i dont want to ever take a shower with him cause my makeup will come off. Im trying to improve my looks so i can have natural beauty and not have to wear it all the time. At school i redo my make up every chance i get. What is this phobia called?? I also never go swimming either.
i am completely afraid of my heart beat. feeling it pounding against my chest, every waking moment of my life, just makes me feel so terrible. and it is almost always right non top of my mind. and also, i have a fear that, if i am in a building and not in the basement (if there is a basement. i LOVE buildings with only one floor because of this) the ni am afraid that the floor will break, and the whole building will collapse. i guess i have always lightly had this fear, but… in my house, there are 2 floors (basement, main floor), and the family room is on the main floor. we have two couches there, and recently my family got two new couches that are sitting around while we wait for my uncle to take the old couches, because he wanted them. so meanwhile, we have four couches in our family room. it COMPLETELY UNNERVES me. all the time, i feel like my house is going to collapse.
and also, i am completely paranoid at night (when it is dark), or i am alone in the house. i am afraid that there are murderers just waiting behind the corner with a knife. i know its ridiculous, but i can’t shake off the feeling. and so, i guess that is why i am afraid of the dark, too.
no one else had posted something about them being afraid of a multi-floored building falling apart, which i guess is a good thing, because that means that its probably so ridiculous that no one had ever thought of it before. well, i hope that’s the case.
good luck to you all, and reading this page makes me feel better.

#334 mischieftoo: Actually, I was googling “fear of floors collapsing” b/c I can’t take this phobia anymore..your tidbit came up in the results and…here I am. I have had this fear since I was younger and absolutely cannot take it anymore. I thought I would see if I could find some remedies online before I saw someone for real. I too cannot have too much furniture on my floors or even fill up the bathtub too full b/c I’m afraid it will fall through. When my husband and I bought our house I had to be reassured and reassured some more that the house was sturdy and will not cave-in. I DO NOT trust houses that were built in the early 1900′s. If I could live in a basement I would. You are not alone. Lately, I have been losing sleep over this. My husband thinks I’m nuts, but at the same time tries to be reassuring and supporting.
I’m terrified of Slugs and/or Snails. UGHH!
I’m afraid of being in water. (as in water in a pool or at the beach) I hate it when people come close to me, touch me, lift me or do anything to me while I’m in the water. I don’t like being in water past my waist and if I go any deeper and the water reaches my chest, I start panicking and breathing hard. It feels like a fat man sitting on my chest when I’m in chest-high waters.
I also am afraid of bugs…all kinds including butterflies, moths, caterpillars, roaches, beetles, ants…all the works.
Im scared of getting/giving hugs. I cry. and im also afraid of touching food that is in the dish water just hangin out in there
the only way to get over a fear is to do the thing that scares you and you wont be scared of it anymore. trust me i know. i used to be afraid to leave my house and ddnt leave it for a year. whenever i tried i would have terrible panic attacks. but i just kept trying it little by little until it ddnt scare me anymore. it takes work but anyone can get over a fear no maatter how dibilitating it is.
I have a fear of Semi’s
Hi, my phobia is fear of small clustered objects!! It is something I cannot describe only show. Some times when I see certain things I have to prevent myself from vomiting! Like I said all you have to do is google a video (not just the picture)of a centipede walking!!! AARRGGH!

Oh and does anyone know what this is called of it is a phobia?

My mom says I used to love pigeons when I was a kid, always running after them in the city. Now, if one crosses my path, I turn around and go another way. I’m terrified of them, which is really unlucky for me because I live in a big city, there are pigeons everywhere I go.

Once, in my history lesson at school my teacher brought in and showed it to the class… i wanted to cry. I had an adrenalin rush and shut my eyes untill it was gone.. and the thing that scared the living shit out of me was when i saw that doctor who episode with the gas masks in it and the little boy going ‘are you my mummy?’ I have nightmares ever since ive seen that, when i was 7… im now 12.

I am afraid of my peanut allergy working against me, in some horrible way.
I am afraid of food getting stuck in my throat, in the midst of swallowing, and nobody being around to help, or people being around and not helping me at all.
I am also afraid of swallowing pills, and would honestly much rather get a guaranteed lifetime of needles, then to swallow another pill ever again.
I am beyond petrified of sirens and horns of ALL types. I buckle to my knees with fear when they blare. Especially when the sirens are related to emergency vehicles, because of all the accidents I have survived and bad news I have recieved over the years. I cringe when I hear sirens and curl up in a ball, in public SERIOUSLY.I think of the person/s being attended to, and even of their families. My reaction is ALWAYS exactly the same even when I’m by myself.
I am also really afraid of car horns, like after a car accident. When I hear people “laying on the horn” I think of the very very worst.

But I can’t go up one without freaking out. I also can’t go down without having a panic attack. Does anyone know what that’s called ? Thanks (:
