PhobiasWhat gives you the heebie-jeebies?
It's a bit strong to call this a phobia, but for me it's the thought of biting into a dry flannel. I've no idea why I'd ever want to or even get the opportunity to do so, seeing as I don't own one, but it makes my teeth hurt to think about it. *ewww*
Tell us what innocent things make you go pale, wobbly and send shivers down your spine.

I have a few of theseI have two main irrational phobias.
Firstly, and most seriously, spider's webs.
I can't stand them. I can't stand to look at them, go near them or (god forbid) touch them. I don't know why, as I have no problem with spiders themselvs and can quite happily hold a tarantula as long as it doesn't try and spew a vile web on me.
I honestly don't know where this comes from. I think I walked into a massive one when I was very young, or perhaps it even goes back as far as some sort of entrapment thing (I was delivered by C-Section).
Secondly, popping balloons. The actual pop itself doesn't scare me, just the anticipation of it. It's so bad that if someone's got an inflated balloon, I have to leave the room.
I think I'm claustrophobic.
I have a fear of things getting stuck to my skin. Especially in a pattern. Eww. *shudders*
Also, I REALLY REALLY CANNOT STAND the feel of nylon clothes on dry skin.

Oh Bloody HellThere's another one I'd forgotten about - Balloons. Little kids running around dragging them on the floor or twats at parties stabbing at them with cigarettes. I once was blowing up a balloon and it exploded in my face. I burst into tears. I was 21. :(

BalloonsI have that as well, I absoloutely hate the things. This has in turn, lead to a phobia about condoms so now they freak me out as well.
