Do you have 'odd' phobias/fears you can't really explain to anyone?

I have this thing about beds being in corners with a slanted roof. I find it really, really horrible, I've got this vague paranoid fear about damp/mould and spiders and urgh I'm shuddering thinking about it now, I can't sleep in a horrible bed or a bed in a position that looks horrible

I have a fear of lifts but that's not really unusual

I'm not really scared of very much... but I am quite scared of swimming in the sea. I'm quite a strong swimmer in a pool, and if my life depended on it I would swim in the sea, but the thought of it freaks me out a bit.

I hate stickers with a passion. There's absolutely no way to describe how I hate them.

..I can't bear to be near to balloons and have a real phobia about them bursting...

Whales and large spaces. I don't even get the whale fear. I had a dream about a whale once, but I was already 15, so I can't really say it was scarring. I understood that it was just a dream. I'm pretty specific about the large spaces though, like I mean outside. Space and the middle of the ocean, where I can't see any land, terrify me.

Sometimes I get weird about people standing behind me, like in primary school if you had to walk in a line in pairs, I had to be at the back or I'd almost want to cry or punch something, makes me shudder, only get it sometimes now but as a child it was really upsetting, I can't explain it... like now I'll get it if I need to pee and someone approaches me I'm like NO GET OUT OF MY SPACE when I'm rushing to the bathroom

..I also get this real anger about people putting things up on high places so that you have to stretch up to get something or stand on something to reach, but I do know why I get that, so I guess it's not so irrational...

I am scared of everything that has wings.
Mice, rats, shrews, snakes, squirrels, maggots, millipedes/centipedes, all insects and arachnids really.
I am also scared of certain everyday situations like visiting the GP and similar stupid things.

..yeah, I don't know what it is but there is something about wings and flapping that is really unnerving...I'm really uneasy with birds...
