My worst ones are STIs, insects, daddy-long legs and falling in love with males (Parents split up when I was 4, see no point in marriage unless you're actually going to keep the promise.

I function OK most of the time - tbh, none of them are that severe other than the one's I've said in the previous Add Details bit

I'm terrified of boats (just going on them, not looking at them) I can swim so I don't know why I'm so scared. I'm also really scared that I'm going to have my throat cut ( its weird I know) If I'm in the dark or just get that feeling that someone is behind me I have to put my hand up to cover my throat.

I believe that being swallowed alive by a giant snake must be the most terrible way to die....imagine, being sucked down that long, dark tunnel, your face pressed against the slick, slimy, mucous covered walls, the vomitous stench of the half-digested remains of the unfortunates who've gone before you clogging your nostrils, the tingle that grows into a pain of the juices, enzymes and acid that slowly digest you...the obsessive thought of what you will become, in a week or two, a stinking amorphous mass of fecal wastes...

I have a fear of heights or the upward motion. Meaning i cant drive over an overpass or anything else that goes UP. Its really bad and embarressing. I live in a resort town near the beach and theres lots of bridges. I had to buy my house according to where the bridges were, sad, lol.

Couldn't find one for just Earwigs and thats My Number ONE > Number TWO is Claustrophobia in certain conditions. >
Both unavoidable sometimes. So I just get on with life and try not to think about them!

I don't know if there is a name for my phobia but I'm scared to death of turkeys...not the cooked ones at Thanksgiving...live ones. I can't bring myself to go in a turkey pen.

Sorry, there isn't a proper word for mine. I have a fear of balloons, not the big ones, the everyday party ones.
