Irrational Phobias?

Irrational Fear? Well I have a nightmare every so often where I hallucinate when I wake up. I see this huge shadow of a spider ascending up in front of me, and I feel on the back of my neck what seems to be my tiny hairs.

I don't know if I'm actually afraid of spiders, but the irrational part of it all is I have had this hallucination happen to me more than 30+ times.

When it happens I think I see a real spider, and when I blink it isn't there anymore.
 
I don't know if this counts as irrational, but millipedes/centipedes scare the fucking SHIT out of me. One crawled past me in my room the other day and I flipped shit and jumped 3 feet across the room staring at it with a horrified look on my face.
 
Is there really a rational phobia? :wacky:

I used to be terrified of needles - not your simple "I don't want a jag" but to the point of considering suicide over getting my TB injection. I kid you not, ties suddenly became my best friends and a pass-time might have been sub-merging myself in my bath water a little bit longer than usual.

I went for therapy because, at the end of the day, the TB jag is just something that we all need to do. I'll now sing my praises for relaxation techniques - over the course of a year, I went from running out of the room when a picture of a needle was present to touching needles, feeling calm, and, finally, getting my injections after all.

EDIT:
Just to confirm, "ties" does not mean that I was using heroin. :wacky:
 
I have a constant fear of my girl getting raped. She lives in Houston, Tx and she works at Hot Topic. She's all punkish and adorable and everyone who meets her falls in love with her and I just don't think she's even halfway safe. She needs a damned taser, knife, shank, something! :gasp: and :jtc: and :amg:
 
I'm kinda sorta afraid of the dark. ;~; When I was younger, I'd be so aware of that night light on. Like, if it went out, I would shoot up from my bed and panic. My parents couldn't sleep if my light was on, and I coudn't sleep if it was off.

And I still can't. :monster:

I'm not sure if it's exactly a phobia, but I also can't stand learning about the human body when it gets into grisly details. I think I panicked a bit when we were learning about the heart a few years back. It wasn't exactly disgusting, but then I imagined all the blood being pumped and didn't feel so good.
 
I'm afraid of clowns. ;_; Not just the ones at circuses, or carnivals. ANY type of clown. Even if it's just a regular person (A likely story. -shifty eyes- They're part of a secret clown mafia...) wearing clown make-up to be silly or volunteering for an event, I still get freaked out. I first started hating clowns when I went to Circus Pizza and the giant Clown mascot played a trick on me as a little girl. I even had nightmares about him. ._.

I also had a dream where I woke up, and a clown with a creepy grin was standing right next to my bed. It's not pleasant, lol.
 
My irrational phobia is Entomophobia (according to Wikipedia) where you have a fear or great dislike of insects. I am more with the latter here- I can't stand insects- no matter what species they are,

Once I screamed the hell out of me when I saw ants crawling across the basement of our house. It was worse when I was playing in the garden on a bike and being an inexperienced 8 year old girl then, I instantly fell off my bike onto a gathering of summer centipedes and woodlice. OK, centipedes aren't insects, but they were all insects to me then, and I simply did not want to go into my garden ever since for the next year.

Furthermore I have scoleciphobia- a phobia of worms, especially eaethworms. When I was confronted by a giant one in a Final Fantasy random battle, I even cringed violently- despite the fact that it wasn't real.
 
I know I've already posted in one of these, but I discovered a new one. :gasp: I'm terrified of appliances making weird noises. Sounds they're not supposed to make. For instance, I turned on my aircon today and it started making strange, loud noises. I freaked out and I got of the room. My dad told me it was normal since it hasn't been sent for maintenance in a long time.

Same thing happened in the middle of the night this week when I heard my sound system making short, random bursts of sounds. Again, I freaked out until I discovered the lime green wire was dangling and because of wind from the fan, it was hitting my pillow.

I'm afraid that they might just explode... Wait, that's it. I'm scared of appliances exploding out-of-the-blue. :ffs:
 
Irrational fear? Mine is the sound of nails (finger nails) being filed down. I detest the sound so much I will actually have to leave the room in which someone is filing their nails in. I;ve had dreams where I am being chased by the noise (although after that, all my dreams turn very very VERY random).
 
i have a phobia of nail files which is very weird and my mum files her nails alot
i hate the sound the texture i hate everything to do with nail files lol my cousin also has a fear cotton wool he doesn't like it anywhere near him lol we have try to get him to pick it up sometimes but he hates us for it lmao
 
The sound of static on the TV, I can't stand it. My body starts to shake and I simply have to leave the room until its over. It MUST be turned down or something. I don't know why but that happens. There mere thought of the sound of static makes me shiver ._.;;
It can be on the radio, too. x.x;;
Yeah.....Static = not good.
 
I have a few stupid ones:

1) Savephobia - when I play a game, when I save, I usually save something like twice or thrice. Don't know why, I always afraid that it didn't save well the first time :P


2) Blackoutphobia - I always afraid that if I didn't save my file update/ game progress for too long, a electrical blackout may happen and I'll have to start everything over again. Thus I tend to save a lot. Quite similar to the previous one I suppose.

3) Knifephobia - I don't afraid of knives, but I feel unease when a knife is pointed at me with it's edge, even if it is just laying on a table.
I always feel like it may start flying at any moment and kill me :P
Kinda stupid I guess, but I still tend to rotate each knife I see, so it's edge won't point at me.
 
Wet wool and moths- they are my fears
Mod edit: Can you please put more effort into your posts, such as why you are scared of wet wool and moths. Thanks =]

I don't really have a phobia of anything but something I don't like is... My mom sometimes has long fingernails and when she's reading a book she scrapes her nails on the page to try to turn it. It drives me up the wall. It actually sounds weird but that sound makes my teeth hurt.

I saw this page and LOL'd so much. OMG I didn't realize there were so many phobias! XD Some of these things I wouldn't even register as a phobia.

Hm.... bugs would be one. I mean, i know they cant do shit, especially cockroaches, but i still hate them. I react like a girl when i see one T.T (Well, not that badly, but bad enough)

Another is looking at a mirror at night. Ever since my cousin told me the Bloody mary thing, i always switch on the light in our toilet from the outside, bending my arms around the wall. Whenever i see a mirror at night, my mind just begins to recite bloody mary for some god damn reason. I think im too curious for my own good.
 
I have no irrational fears.

except for eople with irrational fears. in any situation l am calm until one of those/these guys goes into panick mode putting us all at risk. With arms flailing about ina stupor of non sensical rambmlings until you wanna grab them and slap'em
 
I'm scared for my life of Chargin' Chuck.

How can one not be scared of this bitch? You're used to these turtles and shit walking as slowly as possible and yeah, they hurt you with a simple touch but these dumb motherfuckers don't have a single clue. The boss was clearly drinking when he was pregnant with the poor bastards. But then you have a chargin motherfuck. Running at you and he knows who the fuck you are and what the fuck he needs to do with you. Hell, fuck that shit he has an unlimited supply of balls he likes to throw at your ass. Chuck even has no friends yet is respected by his lazy whore excuse for a team.
