Post some unusual fears you have. For example, I have a friend who has this fear that their belly button will unravel and their guts will spill out of their stomach.
Personally, I am pretty scared of the ocean, insects and spiders, fire, and edges (not heights — usually when I am near a high up edge, I have a difficult time keeping my balance). I’ll post a few more if I think of them.
Ok so I’m boring, that’s the point. I wanna hear your irrational fears!
I’ve come up with a few more of mine:
I’m terrified of dogs, I won’t go anywhere near dogs on the street or in people’s houses even if I know they are trained (the one exception is the dog I used to have)
I’m also super scared of the dark. I can’t even enter my bedroom, basement or kitchen for more than a few seconds at night without a flashlight.
I'm afraid of any hot dogs that don't have all the details of ingredients, when they were made, when the expiration date is, what temperature they were stored at, how reliable the source is, what store they were bought in, etc. I will NEVER eat any hot dogs made with chicken, or that don't meet my exact criteria.
I think I'm scared of ending up like people I know, you know. Like jobless, on welfare.
Ugh it's so infuriating to think some people aren't ashamed to be on it
It would be the most embarrassing thing I would ever go through
There's a guy I know who gets food stamps, gets an unemployment check, and smokes weed way too often. The thing is though he is 21, like wtf how can you feel entitled to money you never put in And to top it off he lived in an apartment which his mom pays for, which they only live 10 miles away.
This is my greatest fear, to become a loser, to make my freedom be supported by other people You are an adult, you have no excuse especially at that age
You move out when you deserve to move out, moving out doesn't make you independent if someone else is paying for it I look down on you even if I don't want to, I don't consider your self equal to me because you haven't proven yourself to be independent THAT is what separates a CHILD from an ADULT, THE ABILITY TO BE INDEPENDENT You're not an independent person, that is my greatest fear
I'm afraid of not ever being able to do creative things. I want to go to film school next year and this place would be perfect for me. Unfortunately, it's a huge risk. I come from a family that often struggles with financials and such. I have 5 siblings and I have to make a good decision with my college. My parents support me, but it's still a big worry that I'll end up not being able to use my creative talents that I've been told I have, and also that I'll end up with no money, a huge college debt, and no way out of it.
I want to do big things in life. I want to write books and publish some of my poetry, and make movies and animated projects... But I fear that I won't be able to do any of that. Part of that is independence as well. I don't want to rely on other people my whole life. I would prefer to be the person others rely on.
