I am claustrophobic, closed,small places and without even realizing it, my throat closes up, my heart pounds, etc.
I hate it, I will not fly either, not sure if that is the claustrophobia or something else. NO elevators of any kind. I should be skinny all the stairs I take instead of elevators,lol.
Oh well, we all have something I guess.

My biggest one is driving on a bridge over water. I just know, one false move, and we are all shark food! I am fine if I am not driving though. Yea, no fear of chocolate here!

LOL Some of those were just BIZARRE! Fear of bowel movements??? YIKES!

I am somewhat claustrophic.....I mean I am ok in my small office here at work (and believe me it's SMALL), but shove me in a small room with other people and close the door and I get light headed and feel like I can't breathe.

I don't have any phobias. There are definately things I like less than others - like spiders and snakes, but I'm not scared of them. DH is clausterphobic. He's had trouble when he's had to sit in the back of an airplane before. He had to get up and go stand for the whole flight!

I don't know if I would call it a phobia but I don't like confined spaces but can deal with air planes and elevators! I hate large crowds where everyone is bumping into you!
I guess the only phobia I've developed is getting dehydrated because last year I had the flu and got dehydrated, I passed out and fell face first into my wrought Iron bed, they thought I had broke my neck and I did break my nose! the last thing I remember was brushing my teeth, I didn't even feel light headed my bed was about 20 feet away from my bathroom and I don't know how I walked out there! well because of that I drink lots of water and get scared when I feel dizzy at all!

I have a fear of being trapped under the water, when I see movies or anything with people under water I feel like I cant breath, but yet I love the water, so I dont know where that comes from. My oldest son hates bugs mostly spiders, he gets sick to his stomach if a spider is anywhere near him, I do torment him sometimes with a pick a hand! and its a nice big spider! I gotta get even with him some how

I am very scared of snakes, and we have them all over here. Also scared of drowning, or falling into deep water. So weird.

This is weird but I hate porta potties and being in the passenger seat of a vehicle. I just go nuts when someone else is driving.

Fear that people are peeking in through the open spaces between the curtains when they are drawn and the lights are on in our house at night.

DH thinks we're not interesting enough to spy on...

bugs. I have been paralyzed w/ fear from bugs. I can't deal with bugs. Even just seeing them in magazines and on tv gets me freaked out.

Heights and drowning. I like to swim, but if I swim in the ocean for snorkeling or something like that, I get freaked if I get too far from shore.

I have a fear of any flood type waters near a roadway. I have to physically put my hand up so that I cannot see the water near the roadway. If I see water across a road, even an inch, I turn back. This past winter we had frozen ground and lots of water sitting on top. I had to take the 4wd truck w/ kids through some water and I thought I was going to have a heart attack. Weird thing is that I love the water when it is on my terms.

I hate heights, but love flying. Give me a window seat (Go figure). I also hate bridges and enclosed spaces.
