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.

DentistsI have a all-encompassing fear of dentists. And have 4 wisdom teeth that needs removing. I've haid to make arrangements with a dentist that does full anasthesia to have any chance of enduring it, since I'll run screaming from the office if not out cold. The last time I went to the dentists for anything but a checkup was something like 6 years ago now.
The dentist I've got now is great, to be honest, but that doesn't ease me one bit. Even the examination he had to do to judge the amount of work/price (18k DKR, about £1800) had me in cold sweats.
I've now got the operation (that's what they're calling it) scheduled for 02/05/08...wish me luck. I know I'll need it just to make it to the office on the day

If it helpsI can recommend the general anaesthetic option. I had all four wisdom teeth out under the sleepy juice and, without a doubt, the worst part was waking up and dealing with the drug hangover.
You'll bleed and drool a lot for a few days and you won't be eating crisps (or broken glass) but it's really not that bad. Give it a couple of weeks and you'll be back to normal, more or less.
