What Fears bring out your worst Nerves

[Eileen B]

I've kept Turantulas, Lizards and snakes, big and small, I bring into the house cold bees and feed them sweet drinks and put the fire on in the dining room, then once they are happy I collect them and pop them outside. So what puts the fear of God in me?.............................................

..................................................

Balloons, nearly 41 years of age, 5 feet 6 inch and a heavy weight and balloons terrify me, I turn into a bag of putty, I sweat and can not concentrate. Even now just the thought of them and I feel uneasy. Pathetic I know but I can't do a thing about it. They scare me to death.

Heights. The very thought of falling terrifies me now, although it didn't used to. It all started when my first marriage was going wrong and my ex suggested I go near the edge of the cliff at Beachey Head........

Getting stuck and not being able to move. Even the thought of pot holing brings me out in a cold sweat!!!

I've been trying to think of something all day since reading this last night,but it seems I am totally fearless.

 

Unless running out of biscuits counts.

Snakes are actually quite nice, from my limited contact with them, but spiders scare the detritus out of me! And as for Dentists................

i read through the thread with no problems till i got to Rogerb`s post, just reading it made me short of breath, that is my biggest fear, i was on a weekend away when i was a kid, staying in a big house with loads of other kids, and a open fronted cupboard fell on this kid, he was trapped inside, it was an old house with old furnature, really heavy, and nothing i could do to get him out would work i was to small, and it was to heavy, eventually after screaming for what seemed ages, a couple of adults came and got him out, both his legs where broken, it was horrible, that image has stayed with me all my life, and just typing this out is affecting me.

At this very moment im scared of spilling my tea on the keyboard but otherwise... The idea of getting stuck in a pipe. Sounds odd?? I recall watching something on telly where a cat got stuck down a pipe and a man went down after it. The pipe was less than 2ft wide. He just had enough room to pull himself forward with his hands and feet. I could'nt do that!!!

[Rogerb]

The problem in small pipes is that it can be easier to go forwards than it is back!! Despite my fears I have had to crawl down a few – clean ones that is. Now there’s another thought – the pipe filling water while you are in there or collapsing behind you.

 

Now I’m really motoring – what about getting stuck head first down a road gulley. I read in the paper that someone got drowned just like that a month or so ago – I think they had dropped their phone down it and gone after it on thier own! The trouble is they are deeper than you think and not wide enough to turn round in should you slip down!!!

 

Gotta go – feel poorly!!!
