Claustrophobic in really tight places. I have had so many MRI's that I"m ok with it as long as I keep my eyes closed.
I'm ok in elevators but the first thing I think when I get in one is if it stops all these people are going to take all my air.

My only fear is that I'll not live long enough to use up my stash and then the family will either pitch it, give it away or sell it for a quarter a yard.

Yeah! spiders. Have had a fear of them as long as I can remember. I call DH to kill them.

I am afraid of heights. I can fly in an airplane and look out the window, I can stand on my 2nd story porch and look down, but anything up high has to have a railing or be enclosed somehow.

Snakes and spiders. Not really phobic; just don't like 'em!

I have a crippling fear of snakes. My sister used to chase me with snakes when we were little. She still thinks it was funny. But now I can't even look at snakes on the TV. Thank the dear Lord that we live in a place that has very few snakes.

I'm claustrophobic. I was in a very serous car accident in 1987 and was trapped in the vehicle for 50 minutes and had to be removed by Jaws of Life. Ever since then I don't want to be confined.

OMG... haven't thought of this for SO long... I too, absolutely hate clowns!! I don't want to be around one... watch one on tv... no pictures of clowns... nothing! I must have passed this on to my son. Someone gave him a picture of a clown with a huge red nose sticking out! You turn his nose and it plays "Bring in the Clowns" I went in to put him to bed, and the picture was under his bed. Out to the garage it went... never to be seen again (thank God!) That was about 25 years ago... I think they are evil... :shock: Remember the clown doll in Poltergeist? Or the clown in "It" by Stephen King? I love Stephen King books... but that one just freaked me out. And the little girl was playing Fur Elise on the piano at the start of it. Can't listen to that song anymore... *shutter* :lol: Seems silly, but they are all hiding something behind all that makeup... :?
