spiders and death.

Can't afford to have any. Have worked hard to get past the various ones that have afflicted me over the years.

Clowns - I hate clowns, hate the circus, hate parades.

Heights and dirty dishes in the sink! Dirty dishes on the side board are fine but once they're in the sink, all slimey and wet, I totally freak out. Entire family has been taught to put their dishes on the counter if they want them washed.

Snakesmand really deep water. I need to be near a place where I can touch the bottom rather quickly.

Same two for me and add a height phobia.

Walking between parked cars' bumpers. I can walk on the side to parked cars, but not in front/back of them. I have named the fear "bumper crushing thoughts". LOL I read that some celebrity has same fear, so I am not only one crazy.

No phobias here.

I bet it was I have been to the Atlanta Roller Girls. Fun thought wasn't it. Gotta give those girls credit I could have never done anything like that.

Getting lost when driving, scares me to death. I am better since my brother gave me a GPS but they don't always work right. Doctors, Going to a simple appointment stresses me out to the max. Takes me a day or two to recover from it.
Snakes use to scare me not anymore unless of course I came across one that was venomous.
Heights make me dizzy so I avoid them when ever possible.
