Phobias
What 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.

Flying related phobia: Ears popping
Before my fear of flying emerged, I USED to be afraid of my ears popping. This one existed outside of planes as well - as in, cars driving up mountains. As soon as my ears would start to feel clogged from the change in pressure, my palms would get all sweaty and I would try to swallow deeply to relieve the pressure.
It was to the point where I physically JUMPED when it happened.
I think it stems back to my childhood - as these things do - when I had frequent ear infections.
