I fear people. Like the philosopher said: "Hell is other people."

I'm VERY claustrophobic. I can't even ride in the car without the window down a little bit. I had to have a hearing test last year and when the lady shut the door on that little, tiny booth, I almost had a panic attack! lol I'm also afraid of heights, and I refuse to sit with my back to the door in a public place. I joke around and tell everyone it's because I have too many ex husbands. lol

I don't have any phobias, but some of the spiders out there give me the hee-bee-gee-bees. Especially the juicy, hairy ones. Yuck.
I once came across one of those hairy spiders in my basement and it turned around and taunted me. It acted just like the lion on the Wizard Of Oz...."Put 'em up...Put 'em uuuuppp!" I had to get the gun for him.

Clowns. I've been afraid ever since I was little. The fear isn't nearly as strong as it used to be, but I am still afraid.
