    Any phobias? Anything just in general that scares you?


    I basically freak out when around a big dog. (Higher than my knees is big)
    When I was 4, I went to my brother's friend's house with him. I got out of the car, & started to scream because there was a HUGE Great Dane running down the long drive-way....it takkled me to the ground & I burst into tears. I remember my brother & his friend getting in a fight because he didn't understand why he didn't stop the dog before it got to me & she just kept saying that she thought the dog would stop & be nice. I was only 4 so I was smaller than the freakin dog! Yea...scarred me for life.

    Cancer etc..

    The world ending. Thinking about that makes me scared and depressed for awhile sometimes. I hate it, I went through another episode of that last night when I saw a clip of a guy talking about another Y2K or w.e.

    im scared of big dogs too!
    also kind of claustraphobic.
    being in the dark makes me feel kind of closed in, so im not fond of pitch black.
    im not scared of dying, but im scared of having ppl i know die.

    those are my main fears.

    I'm afraid of the dark, and I have a big phobia of people staring at me. And one time I told this kid to stop staring at me, and my teacher told eeryone to stop what they were doing and stare at me. It was awful!

    xc running gal, being crushed by an iceburg?? hahaha. Very unique, I must say.
    Let's see...I have many fears.
    -Scary movies. Why those? I saw The Ring when I was 9 or 10. My mind was twisted ever since and I can't make myself to remember that scary movies aren't real.
    -The dark, only when I'm alone. ^^Thanks scary movies. =[^^
    -bugs. any kind.
    -Claustrophobia.
    -Highways. When I'm on a bus, it's okay, but in a car, I panic once in awhile.
    -Falling. Heights go along with that.
    -End of the world. Especially with all this 2012 stuff.
    -Death.
    -My house catching on fire.
    -Burgulars.
    -Failing at running. Like, I suddenly get really really bad. And even worse, not being able to ever run again. I think that would kill me.

    are you claustrophobic or are you afraid of claustrophobia in general?

    same, it really freaks me out. I try telling myself that so many people have predicted it and have always been wrong, but so many people say its legit and everything because they predicted other stuff (except their own demise).
