What are your inner-most paranoid fears??

Question

Hi all
I'm studying for my degree in fine art at the moment, and was wondering if anyone could help me out....
Ok, my question to all of you is: What is your inner-most 'paranoid' fear? What do you dread or fear happening to you more than anything else?
I'm looking to do a series of films and monologues based upon your answers, and all films will be anonymous with no reference to who's afraid of what!!
So, anyone who wants to help me out, please let me know!
Cheers :)

Answer 1

not taking the opportunity to live life to my full potential terrifies me

Answer 2

I am scared of nothing. As in dying and there being just nothing. Nothing after all this beautiful life. Also being stuck in a room full of midgets pulling at my clothes. Seriously. And i dont have a clue why. One last thing that scares the crap out of me, in a big way, is that i get sleep parallysis. Most people who get this experience the same sort of things. Their bodys are asleep but their mind is half awake and cannot move, then something, usually a ghost strangles them on their bed. Different people get different images such as an old witch, a goblin, the scream face (off the painting) or what i get.. a black shadow. But if i am downstaires its a lad with a ripped white shirt, black messy hair and no teeth. i wish i could just sit up and strangle him, give him a wedgey. Hey look into it though.

I think "paranoid fear" is a redundancy. Paranoia is a fear of something, it could be darkness, or heights, or snakes, or spiders, you name it. There is a fear of all of them.

My worst fear is being buried while I'm still alive. I can imagine myself screaming my lungs out while the air grows thinner and thinner inside that dark, claustrophobic box. Scratching the fabric through to the hard surface of the wooden coffin I feel my hands wet slippery with blood. My nails broke off. Sweating, urinating and defecating all at the same time, I know there isn't any hope of getting out alive. Then I start to surrender, submit to my ultimate fate. While gasping for the final breath of air, I pass out. Then a sudden jolt. Finally, some air. There is a light too.

This has been my recurring dream, my worst nightmare, my greatest fear.

Hope this helps. Ugh.

Answer 4

I like this question and will answer as honestly as I can. As far as an emotional fear goes, it is being betrayed by someone i love from the deepest part of me. To love and have this selfless part of me taken and trodded upon without thought, as though it was no matter, has happened. I fear such an event ever happening to me again.That is my emotional fear. Now, my greatest physical fear is that of burning to death. i have had minor burns from touching hot elements and have often pondered on this intensity consuming my whole body, it strikes a primordial fear that makes me shudder. Though getting burned is not as much a a paranoid fear as getting hurt by someone you love, I'm quite paranoid of it. can you not imagine the shrieking and absolute horror one must be going through as they are burning, knowing they are about to die...If I had to give you a second place spot it would have to be suffocation, like drowning. The level of consciousness would be much longer than burning and I'm sure the panic one would go through would be mind boggling. i know I very much disliked my brother clamping his hand over my mouth until i screeched with panic from the loss of air. Also a very uncomfortable situation. Also in my imagination, I can see how fear full one must be who is tied up and told they are going to die in some dread full way. Well, hope I was help full and the best of luck to your project!!

Answer 5

I'm scared of losing someone close to me. My sister died 7 years ago, so I know that it doesn't just happen to other people. Sometimes I feel like the fear is crushing me, and I don't want to let my husband or kids out of my sight. If we have to go on a journey, deep down I fear that I'll never see them again. I'm paranoid that its going to happen again.

Answer 6

I dont know if this is what your looking for but my biggest fears at the moment are that i will never hear my four year old son speak and also that my boyfriend who i have only recently got back together with after splitting for 6 weeks is going to leave me again.

Answer 7

Well I used to be afraid of dying alone until I realised everyone dies alone no matter what. Only thing I have a phobia of is Hypodermic needles... no idea why.
There's no point living in fear when fear can be such fun!

Answer 8

Being left alone. I have a serious issue with that. I'm sometimes in a house by myself for a couple of days and I go spare. Trying to get over it now, but it's a big problem in my life.
Also getting Alzheimers later in my life, that possiblity scares the crap out of me.

Answer 9

honestly.....inner-most paranoid fears...I have a paralyzing fear of heights and insects. But my inner most paranoid fear is making my loved ones mad at me or have the impression that I am not doing enough

Answer 10

i've always been scared of going blind, as a painter I rely on my sight greatly and I luv looking at all the beautiful things the world has given me, to not ever see colours again, my family etc is my worst fear.

Answer 11
