I've posted here before but, I remembered something else I could add. So last time I said that I have a fear of pain and things that can cause pain, which includes heat and sharp objects. I'm also kinda scared of my teeth falling out, and the most curious way that manifested was that when I had lost a tooth when I was younger, if I got something like corn or a rice corn in the gap, I'd feel a shot of panic because it felt like a tooth and it would come loose. Strange, but thankfully not something I need to worry about if I just take care of my teeth.

What I have to add isn't all that revolutionary, but it seems that my fear of pain extends to emotional pain as well. People getting angry, dissapointed or yelling at me all gets me panicing to a degree.

Now, for something more interesting, and quite frankly, funny. My bf (up until recently...) has a fear of... stickers. Yes, stickers. Stickers, small plastic bits, and things like wet paper and plastic bits. To put it simply, it's shiny things that sticks to you, so some fabric plasters aren't as bad as those plastic plasters with pictures on that kids usually get, just looking at those makes him sick. Admitedly, I have had my laughs at all of this and I think I once did wave something around that he was all "Nooo nyeee" about, but only the once. It's not really funny to make him upset really, once is more than enough for a lifetime. I respect that he doesn't like those things and that he can't really stand them, despite my own love for stickers. After 3 years together, it feels strange to NOT have people freak out over plastic bits or be disgusted. It's not a huge thing, doesn't impact my life, but it's one of those small things that just sticks out (hehe) to you after a while. At least it gets me to clean up small bits of trash more often ^_^'

Like a large number of people I have arachnophobia: fear of spiders and scorpions and other arachnids. Spiders more than Scorpions but I don't like either one of them. I also kind of have tryptophobia, primarily because I looked it up. If you don't want to develop it yourself, never EVER google that. Not kidding. I am dead serious. You will be scared for life.

I've got a nagging fear of the dark and any spider larger than a dime. On a more absurd note, I also have a thing against countdowns, especially if it's being used as a time limit. Whenever I see a clock ticking downward it makes me nervous.

I have posted before, but I thought I'd say I also have a fear of putting my feet under a table. I have no real idea why, it's just strange.

Terrified of heights, though only if I'm exposed, inside tall buildings is fine but if I'm on a balcony yikes

Oh and big magnets make me uncomfortable for some reason I find it weird myself
