I'm deathly afraid of mice, other pests that creep me out are cockroaches and bedbugs. I hope neither of these three things ever come to my home. I'm also not fond of worms.

I'm a little germaphobic too. I have always tensed up when others around me are sick, even when it was just standard cold and flu, but now with Covid my fear has reached new levels.

I don't like rides that drop you for stories, fast roller coasters I am okay with but drop rides I am a bit squeamish about

Lots of noise and loud conversation also frightens me. I get upset when my space is disrespected, and have social phobia--that may surprise people because I can be quite a talker with familiar faces that I am comfortable around, but I do best in small intimate environments especially one-on-one, if it's too busy with too many people then I get uncomfortable.

I'm afraid of the dark. I can't even sleep with the lights off, so I leave it on at night. I'm fine w/the movies, but I rarely go anyway. I've always needed at least a tiny bit of light coming into the room, or I'll just be afraid. I will scream if the lightbulb blows out at night, also. =/

I have common fears like spiders and I'm (somewhat) afraid of heights, but I also think I have a couple strange fears?

I'm afraid of being on boats, but I feel like I'm really good at hiding it. I never learned how to swim and I've had a couple experiences where I've almost drowned, so it's been really scary for me. Once a long-distance friend came to visit from another country with his family, and his mom suggested we go whale watching, which requires me to be on a boat for several hours. They had already bought the tickets, and I didn't have the heart to say no to them...
I only think I'm good at hiding it because they never said anything to me afterwards, and because I agreed to go on a ferry with my parents a few years ago even though they knew of my fear, and my dad said it seemed like it was no problem for me.

I've been teased a couple times for this but... I'm also afraid of vacuums. I like cleaning and having a clean space but they're so extremely loud, and hearing such a loud noise, even when I'm expecting it, in my own home is scary for me. I used to live in a room that was fully carpeted, and I'll admit I asked my mom to vacuum it for me a few too many times...

Choking on food was my biggest fear for a long time and it led to an ED twice and a lot of mental health troubles (very long backstory). Not as big of a fear now but its always at the back of my mind and the one that had the biggest impact on my life. I used to be scared of my intrusive thoughts but I deal with them well now. Other than that probably the dark, small spaces or being stuck outside in a thunderstorm. Cheerful I know :D

I don't have many common fears. More akin to another who posted in this thread, it's stuff that would mostly be considered strange. I've stood on a 300 ft structure, and I think I get more of a thrill out of heights than fear, as long as i'm not dangling. We live deep into a forest area, so I had to get accustomed to taking our dog out at night in the dark. It's a bit eerie, but also tranquil.

I'm afraid of going into elevators, especially on my own. I don't like the idea of the elevator free-falling, or getting stuck.

I also have a fear of gunshots and guns in general. Fictional guns are perfectly fine. This doesn't start unless it's a real gunshot, which I can distinguish.

I don't like squeezing feelings. That could be from getting my blood pressure checked, or someone hugging too hard. This might be the worst out of all of them because I can't hide it.

I'm am hugely terrified of heights. I freak the psyduck out if I don't feel in control of my body/actions too, especially since that one triggers both my anxiety disorder and the PTSD lmao.
Naturally, than means planes are a big bag of nope for me these days being both a situation/environment I have no control over and ridiculously high up.
