Being emotionally abandoned. Y'know, being emotionally abused as a kid can have insidious effects. My folks provided for me physically, but they weren't there for me in any other way. I was told I was a piece of crap everyday.
So on the rare occassion I let people get close to me I'm stuck with this "walking on eggshells" feeling that no matter what I do - dont get comfortable with it - it wont last.
The sick part being, that subconsciously I do things to push people away to deal with the anxiety - and the really sick part is that I dont realize that I'm sabotaging the very thing that I'm after until the bomb has gone off.
Sigh

The need to succeed, fueled by my lack of acceptance in school from moving from California to the Wyoming countryside and getting physically pounded for five years. Also fueled by my mother, who is extremely mentally competetive due to overcompensation in her head for a back injury taking her physical abilities away in 1966.
