This is a question Irrational Fears

My mate Dan is afraid of turning his back on a flushing toilet. "It'll suck me in", he says. Can you beat him with your own true story of an irrational fear?

uggggghhhhhhhh
i have a serious thing about daddy-long-legses (craneflies?) and those horrible autumnal spiders with the tiny bodies and fucking huge legs. most annoying because me house is filled with them. bloody terrify me. i refuse to sleep in any room in which i see one for two weeks. god just thinking of them makes me want to run to a different room...

oh and moths. aaaagh moths. horrible things... the flappery noise when they fly up walls... their huge furry bodies... their general.... hugeness... the way you find dead ones in the most unexpected places.... oh god....

oh and dragonflies... they're bloody huge!!! i nearly drowned meself by ducking under water in an outdoor swimming pool after being chased by one... refused to come up unless it was still there....

i suppose it must have been quite comical to look at...

oh yes and edit number two... i can't stand the horrible feeling you (I?) get when your hands or fingers touch each other in certain types of water... possibly water which is high in chlorine? it just makes me shudder all over.

Oh, and edit number 3 (sorry!): I feel really sensitive... I mean REALLY REALLY sensitive about me wrists. If anything touches them i have to fold my arms tightly until the feeling goes away. Also, I used to have this terrible fear after watching 999 once as a kid about a huge hammer hitting me on the knee and my kneecap falling off..


edit4: ooh. more common than i thought apparently.
