I have hemophobia or blood phobia
When I am in a hospital, my mind is occupied with "What if I see blood or bloody patients?" I feel like fainting. And also in movies, when someone's wounded, I feel like fainting.
I'm also afraid of knives and activities which include sharp objects for I'm afraid that I or someone's going to be wounded.
I want to be a doctor but this phobia prohibits me to be so.

I am absolutely TERRIFIED of heights. When forced to confront them (the 6th floor of the new library downtown, etc.) I actually feel myself being pulled down - as if I have no choice but to fall. Makes me sick to my stomach and dizzy at the same time. Wish I didn't have this phobia. :(

yes, I'm claustrophobic ; i don't like doors shut on me in small places, or elevators, i don't think i could ever get on a plane, it's not small, but it has too many people on it and the door closes your stuck til it lands, i think my phobia has more to do with lack of control of a situation, not being able to get out when i want to, i panic big time!âº

I get really freaked out by lightning, but thunder doesnt bother me.
When there's a lightning storm, a have to wear rubber gloves, wear wellingtons, have rubber bands up my arms. I wont touch metal or use electrical items.
And in some really bad cases, I wont go upstairs.
Scary! :P
