Having blood taken. Forgot that one. Fine with needles but not ones that suck :D

Oh and wasps

Driving, I don't think I could ever do it.

Also the thought of being abducted makes me anxious.

And crowds.

Massive crowds

I could never drive. I get too distracted. I'd not watch the road

I'm a hypochondriac and an even worse hypochondriac by proxy. If anyone I love has any symptom at all of ill health I jump right to the worst possible scenario and can't pull my head back out of there. I literally feel like I'm going to vomit when members of my family get sick. It could be just a temperature or a headache or a bloody bruise. I lose so much sleep because of this and there's a large part of me that realises how beyond ridiculous and illogical and pointless it is but I can't help it. The internet has NOT helped. Way too much information.

When I tell someone something that they can use against me even if it's my girlfriend I get really anxious about it.

Being living alone, scare to become ill.

Making phone calls is another one that makes me so nervous. When I worked in an office for the summer I used to have to go to the bathroom and calm down in a cubicle before going back to make a phone call, it seriously psyches me out, I have a fear of strangers and a fear of being made to look stupid - as it was just a summer job, I obviously didn't know the ins and outs of the company by any means so I was afraid largely of being asked a question I didn't know the answer to; I really hate having to bother other people with my own incompetence so would just rather avoid exposing myself to my weaknesses, even though I am perfectly aware that it's such a stupid thing to be afraid of. My fear of phone calls/strangers is so bad though, I can't even order a takeaway without panicking, I get other people to do it instead. I rarely answer our flat buzzer unless it's just me in the flat and there've been times I've just ignored it unless they've persistently buzzed it... I've only spoken to one of the people who live above us, once. Never met any of the other neighbours, avoid eye contact on the stairs. I don't answer my phone when I get a phone call unless it's from a family member, otherwise I let it ring out - if they leave a voice mail I'll usually call back. Like, I have a part time job but my employers are based in London so their only correspondence with me is via phone or email; I don't think I've ever answered a phone call from them straight away, it's so bad but it's just this ridiculous fear I have, that I don't know what they want so I don't want to find out. A fear of the unknown, I suppose.


I need therapy. LOL.

Public speaking. Phoning people, oh god I hate it. I wish everything could just be done online. I'm scared of getting old and having some illness that can't be cured and being miserable and decrepit. But for the most part I like to be optimistic.

Mr XcX 26-04-2011 01:16 AM

Being near people I find attractive.

Kerry 26-04-2011 01:18 AM

Formal events/functions. Ugh. Avoid

-Talking to people on the phone.
-Shouting.

:(

I agree with almost everything Niall said.

Things that can fly, definietly - Moths are my biggest phobia of all time.

LOL at the line one, it's true though. I always end up thinking 'Should I run out of the line or stay! WTF!' and then by the time I decide what to do it's my turn to get on :bored:

Talking on the phone is so cringey, especially when you have to say Hello to someone - when in real life you talk to them like sh*t.

OMG Your one about standing in your room with no lights reminds me of something else;
Like at night when I'm taking a piss or going to watch TV at like 3 in the morning, I always prepare myself for Ghost Face to bounce out from the door ways and shove a knife down my throat. :love:

Patrick 26-04-2011 02:10 AM

OMG NO! THIS:



Spoiler:

Getting a sandwich in Subway. :shocked:

Honestly, I dread having to do it every day.

They intimidate me so much, patronizing bastards.

'Cheese and Toasted? :bored:'
'Yes :bawling:'

Walking on a cold day. You always know there's ONE tiny piece of black ice waiting to deck you and it's always infront of someone

Haha!
Love that.

I love when people fall and they get up and look around in tears, realize someone is there and try and suddenly laugh it off as if they don't care.

It's alright for me though, I love Ice :love: So when I fall my 'LOL that was epic' reaction is genuine.

Love falls into snow. I laugh my head off. But ice falls - bloody ouch! Nevermind the fact your legs always seem to fly above your head :shocked:

Why? Does it make you visibly wet?



:nono:
With sweat I mean.

Doogle 26-04-2011 08:36 PM

Phoning my friend's home numbers. I'm a very social person but I can never bring myself together to say "hey, is ___________ there?"
I just fall apart. And I'm really confident.

Haha, that is awkward.

"Ohhhh, it's ______ on his mobile telephone".

Smithy 26-04-2011 08:44 PM

Oh I totes agree with the ice thing, last march when we had that really cold snap, school got closed early and we all had to go home early, it was so slippy, there was literally 6 of us holding onto one another trying to get down the hill
