Irrational fears

Recommended Posts

No such thing as Irrational Fear:)It's a real to the person suffering it.
I don't know that I have any major fears. All mine are circumstance dependent

There was once a time long ago in the history of England where those who rejected the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church were tortured to death by pouring molten lead into their ears and mouths.

You're not one of those, are you?

I suffered immensely early on with the very gut-wrenching fear that my leg straps were going to break at opening.

I still sometimes think about it.
:S

Nowadays, my worst fear is that I'm going to do something stupid like get married again.
Probability is juuuuust this side of non-existent but that's what makes it an irrational fear.
:D:D

My reality and yours are quite different.

Fuck spiders. Seriously.



Yeah, I'm deathly afraid of them. I guess it's an irrational fear because I'm very unlikely to encounter any dangerous ones where I live, but they still totally freak me out.

Mine......I am completely scared of swimming in a lake.....(wait for it...)......because of the dead people.

Yep....I can't swim in lakes because the dead people, which there are LOADS of them. They will reach up and grab my legs.

I can swim in rivers and the ocean.....but lakes, I will hyperventilate. Totally and completely irrational.....but I can't get over it.

Trains...i hate em. I dont mind riding one but if I'm not actually on it i dont want to be anywhere near it. My local crew thinks it's hysterical that i have no problem jumping from an undisclosed bridge and landing on the tracks but as soon as a train comes along I cower in fear :P

I did, at one time, have a Power Hitter styled like a Gatorade bottle. DZO never figured it out. I wasn't afraid of it though.

LOL I'm afraid of the ocean - sharks, giant squid, sea snakes, micro organisms, and tsunami's. Yeah, no better place for me to live than SoCal and marry a man who owns a sail boat! :ph34r::ph34r:

I have no problem with lakes and rivers! LOL :ph34r:

Grab hold of your risers during opening. As long as you have hold of the risers, you'll be fine. :P

There's a reason your parents didn't want you to watch those horror films as a kid.
