I think I saw that movie!! Although it was a shark, not an aligator..

Well, yeah.. I'm afraid of the sea view at night.. That's probably why I never went on a sea cruise.. But I'd like to do that someday.

I'm agoraphobic...which means I can't stand to be in a large, open area. Think claustrophobia reversed.

I'm also afraid of dissapointment, so I spend my free time that I'm not on Cantr pleasing people.

I am claustrophobic.

I used to be claustrophobic, one day scrubbing a bilge clean and I was "cured". :lol:

I always feel like someone's out to get me(paraniod)if that counts.
That's all I can think of...

Haha, I'm the same except it's with large bodies of water and I think dead bodies are going to touch me. But as soon as my feet can't reach the bottom the fear sinks in.

Thank you. If you have some spare time you can swim ahead of me and check for dead bodies also?.. :wink:

I don't know...I always feel like someone'll be looking at me...ew.

I'm also afraid of the ocean.

Sharks...oh, why did it have to be sharks...

I would die just by the shock of seing a shark next to me in the water...

I was once swimming in the ocean...actually body surfing when I notice several people getting out of the water pretty quickly. As I looked closer I could see the fin of a shark between me and the beach. I was in extremely shallow water and swimming parallel to the beach. Needless to say while I waited there without a single toe in the water as I floated on the body board it seemed like an eternity. I didn't want to begin swimming toward the shark and have it turn around.

I'm still not really afraid of sharks, though.

There was this other time in Grand Cayman as I was snorkeling I kept seeing this gar at about 100 meters floating at the top of the water. Then I began to notice that it was just a little closer everytime I saw it....it just looked at me sideways with that huge eye and mouth full of teeth. Eventually I didn't see it any longer...problem is when you're snorkeling you have no peripheral vision. As I began to swim kind of in a butterfly style my arm hit something. As I turned my head 2 feet from my face was that 5 ft long gar and all his teeth. I punched it and began flailing. I guess I scared him off. Nonetheless I love the ocean.

I had a pretty exciting run in with some lions this summer as well in Kenya, but that's a story for another time.

They can lie. Becasue they could be only to lazy do go out and do something. But sometime thay can have fobias that they are afraid to go out, becase they fear about that they will not return to thair place, because something will happen.

Nevertheless, I'm not lying. For example...I can not go into the center of ice-skating rinks when I practice, because then there's that much open, empty space between myself in the wall. Also, when at resturaunts, I can't sit in a chair...I must be in a booth in a corner, so no one can look at me.

You know what, I think I'm like you...

I just realized... I have all the phobias in the world!!!

Lauren · Postby **Lauren** » Fri Nov 25, 2005 12:49 am

I dunno... I'm not afraid of everything...but let's try and make a list of what I am scared of...

1. open spaces
2. falling
3. Tonka trucks *
4. masks
5. anything wrinkled *
6. the ocean
7. Ferris wheels!
8. grubs or other larvae
9. suffocating or drowning **
10. cars and other motor vehicles, including airplanes and motorboats.
11. elevators

* - when I was eight I had pneumonia...in my fever, I hallucinated badly about blankets and cloth attacking me and it was being brought in large yellow pickup trucks...

** - this summer I was kayaking the Nolichucky River and I fell out, got my foot caught in a rock, and was pinned beneath my kayak. I'm VERY scared of drowning now...since I was so close.

Things I am most definately NOT afraid of...

1. spiders
2. snakes
3. assorted other crawly things
4. heights (surprisingly...)
5. trains or subways

Yes, since y'all needed to know every iota of my fears...

Phobias!!
