Fear of heights. This is so bad that when I am driving in a mountainous region I have to be on the inside lane at all times. I have heart palpitations just driving over the top of a dam when I can see down both sides. The very idea of riding one of those glass elevators on the outside of building would be enough to send me into an absolute panic! Makes no sense - but it is real just the same. Like all phobias I guess. Other things people are afraid of like snakes, spiders, closed spaces etc, don't bother me at all.

I have two real fears and they are the fear of wrists, and the fear of the ice cream man. I know this sounds weird, but it is very true. When I was little, I watch the movie The Ice Cream Man and every since then, I have been horrified of ice cream men. Luckily, I live in the country and there is no ice cream trucks driving around with that creepy music playing. My fear of wrist is 1000000 times worse however! My wrist are small and I can see the blue veins and that really freaks me out! I am afraid of accidentally cutting myself and dying. My friends know about this and are always pretending to cut themselves and I always gag and get real light headed. If I see something gross in a movie, my wrist and arms begin going numb and I get real weak. When I wear a watch and bracelets, I keep them pushed up on my arm so they don't touch my wrist and when I wear clothes with long sleeves, I make sure the sleeve goes past my hand in length. I don't like people talking about wrist or touching mine. I don't know how I got this way, but just typing this stuff makes me feel nauseous.

There's these plants called "Hens and chicks." They are pretty cool and grow without any care and not much water, so I like them in my yard.
However.......late spring, they grow a stalk about a foot high. When it matures, it opens up and has a bunch of little pods on smaller stalks sticking out. I'm sure these contain seeds...just it's way of spreading.
But they totally freak me out.They remind me of the alien body-snatchers or something. I honestly can't even go into the yard until I've cut that stalk off and thrown it in the trash or burned it. I've never reacted to anything like that before.

I have phobias of "contamination" issues. Not touching certain things, or things being unclean/unusable after falling on the floor. I'm scared of, well, not so much of heights, I'm fine at high hights, but if tall things are around me, blah! I'm a little..."touchy" ;)
