Question of the day:
What is a strange fear or phobia you have that perhaps others don’t and what is something you don’t fear that maybe many other people do, do you think?
I don’t have Thalassophobia so the ocean to me isn’t something I fear nor what’s in it, I think quite a lot of people do along with something like liminal spaces that make them feel uneasy but to be honest it doesn’t really phase me.
For phobias or fears I don’t like butterflies really, I just think their fluttering and whatnot is freaky and annoying, I’d say this is a minor fear / phobia of mine but still, I don’t like the fuckers.
All my phobias are pretty common, though I don’t know how many people have Trypophobia but I have it.
But I’m not afraid to go on things like roller coasters or extremely tall buildings and I feel many people are.
And here’s my question of the day: where’s the clucking real-
No but im serious
Im dying due to norealmitis
Buzzing noises right next to me ear just set me off for some reason. I know it sounds stupid but it doesn’t even have to be an insect, if there’s any buzzing near my ear I instantly recoil
This is why I actually almost concussed myself on a screen door recently. As I was opening it a deerfly passed by my ear and I recoiled into the fucking half opened door
Flies all like
Bzz bzz motherfu-
fun fact, nobody is afraid of heights
they’re afraid of falling
in less stupid news, i used to never ever want to have my head under the water as a kid for fear water would get in my ears in such a way it would never come out
fun fact, nobody is afraid of the dark
they’re afraid of being alone in the dark
not really i think you can have someone with you and still be scared
Or realising that you’re not alone in the dark.
Why do you never start your sentences with capital letters
I tried copying you but it drove me insane
Holy crap I just developed a new phobia-
It’s not a thing but it should be
it’s a kind of dark magic called turning off auto capitalize
Accurate.
As someone who is actively afraid of falling i can say this is accurate
Well I have arachnophobia idk if a lot of people have it but I think it’s pretty common I also am scared of heights so those are the only ones I know I have
I’m also scare of the dark
I hate dogs
Me too actually, although I’d call it more of a disliking than a hate sometimes though it does cross over.
i have arachnophobia and my entire family mocks me because of it
same but my family doesn’t mock me https://www.boredpanda.com/adorable-animation-lucas-the-spider-joshua-slice/
My largest is

Phobia of intruders with malicious intent (murderous) and is shadow-like in appearance
like these
Because of this I’m paranoid of when I stare in dark areas or am sitting near dark areas or when I take my telescope out at night to use it because I’m afraid that eventually one day there will be a time when someone invades the house through the backyard or the house silent enough that I’m unaware of it, or that I’ll just have to hide
Also afraid of seeing a UFO for some reason.
Kind of like distorted blobs in the sky or the pheonix lights.
Because of this I’m kind of scared to stand below a sky with no clouds over my area since it feels sometimes unsafe.
I’m also afraid of being alone (like the last person on earth), and just that by itself which is why liminal spaces do make me feel a bit uneasy. I have a bit of megalophobia too.
As for what I don’t fear, not much really. I’m not really claustrophobic or afraid of spiders by themselves, but just that when they’re dead they’re scary.
Probably my strange fear of automatic lights in public bathrooms, I don’t know why, but maybe it a because of some experiences I’ve had as a younger child.
The thought of there being nothing after we die. I’m a Christian, so I believe in heaven, but I never really knew. It’s my worst fear, other than heights.
I don’t have many fears, but my biggest would be the fear of the Unknown.
Things like what happens after death, what ifs, and the incomprehensible scale of the universe.
I no longer believe in heaven, I think there is nothing after death, but the thing is, my brain can’t comprehend there being nothing forever(that’s a quote taken from someone who already died awhile ago i forgot their name)
Maybe that’s why I like science so much.
Finding the answers.
It might be that I always feel the need to stay away from people.
Like for every time I see a mostly harmless stranger like a kid, I feel the need to stay away from them. This mostly happens when I take my dogs out now.
Maybe It’s because of my mom teasing me by jokingly hitting me with food stuff (It’s just teasing) which pretty much fucked up my Fight Or Flight Response or maybe It’s because of the fact that I’ve been mostly Isolated since 2019, Only ever really going out to take out my dogs, some trash, going to the beach, pools and all that but for some reason, I feel that they might attack me.
Same, i’ve started bringing weapons outside with me, and it doesn’t help that I live in a neighborhood of crackheads and people who own guns.
Not to metion that I often hear fireworks or gunfire at night.
Texas is crazy.
I think I have Autophobia, I can barely stand being alone for an extended amount of time
