Out of anything and everything, what makes you the most afraid the most consistently?
For me it would have to be anything physical with my brain, be it surgical or injuries or what. Earlier today I was (regrettably) on another Wikipedia binge going from one thing to another as I'm sure you can relate, and since the name reminded me of an episode of the Simpsons where Flanders was overlord of the world, I decided to click on lobotomies. You know, I never really knew any specifics about them, I was curious, I've heard some and must complete my knowledge goddamnit... and it made me sick reading about it.
I never realized how much I value my brain and head until I read about things like this. Concussions scare the crap out of me, I want anything but my head to be injured in collisions, I'm terrified of alcohol over a few neurons... and lobotomies just topped all of my phobias. Now, I've yet to take a lighter to my skin to be 100% certain but I think I'd most definitely rather burn to death than live and be disabled like that. It's a true blue fate worse than death for me.
It all started with a read about psychic abilities. ;_;
