Tight places, spiders, flying things, beatles, insects in general. Bees, omg bees! i'm abosolutely terrified of bees. Any insects just scares the hell out of me. I also can't stand being trapped in tight places, i feel like its coming in on me and i freak out. Height as well, i'm terrified of a lot of things, i hate going on elevators... who else knows what :P
 
The title should really be "what are your fears?" After all, everybody is afraid of something. Even the bravest of us are scared of Chuck Norris (by the way, he has a fear as well - of getting his beard cut off)

Seriously, I get scared of some spiders. Its weirs, but it kinda depends on their body mass to leg length ratio. I've held a tarantula and I kinda like the small garden spiders you can find with their big abdomens (that sounded kinda wrong) but I scream like a little girl when I see one of those house spiders which has a body the size of the tip of a needle and legs a foot long.
 
Christ, I forgot heights. It's not so much heights that scare me, it's when I'm in the open and not boxed up safe when i am up high that gets to me.
 
Tornadoes, vomiting, airplanes, elevators, bugs... bees especially. And doing anything over I did around the time something bad happened. For instance, I ate Dairy Queen french fries the night before I went to hospital ill- now whenever I see them I wanna crap in my pants. :[

A few others. :D
 
Being sick, heights, drowning, dying in general, being alone, losing people close to me.

Yeah, that stuff >.>
 
Nothing.

I am seriosuly not trying to be macho or anything.

I don't really have a great "fear", I just have things I really hate.

I think that Flying Bugs in enclosed spaces (And I mean ALL flying bugs) are the closest thing to a fear that I have.
 
Difficulty of breathing. This includes very tight spaces and drowning, mainly, but any situation that makes it very difficult/impossible to breathe terrifies me. :S
 
Velociraptors

Fear of needles, it's my main one by far. I had so many night terrors about needles as a kid I just can't change my feelings for them. :( I used to have a fear of drowning, but it faded away with the confidence that I can usually get myself out of bad situations like that or simply avoid them completely.

While on the fear topic, as much as I go to the beach, people think I'm afraid of sharks, I'm not. I happen to swim at the shark attack capital of the world, they'll come in the shallow water for schools of fish all the time. (They're so misunderstood, ugh) An article once said that anyone that's swam at New Smyrna Beach have been within 10 feet of a shark in their lifetime, and it's certainly true. The only main water-related fear I have is scuba equipment failure. (That's a scary thought because you can't just rush up for air or safety immediately -- or you could just die right there without realizing there was a malfunction or improper gauge reading) But anyway, yeah, if there's any fear that just paralyzes me, it's needles. Call me weak or to man up all you want, but it won't do a thing.
 
I'm a bit weird to be honest, I have real Phobias that contradict each other.

Bataphobia=Fear of looking up at tall buildings.
Acrophobia=Fear of Heights
Anablephobia=Fear of looking up
Claustrophobia=Fear of shut, enclosed spaces
Agoraphobia=Fear of Wide open spaces (not public spaces but deserts and giant grassy plains)
 
Fears

I have a fear of the dark and of heights. I also fear snakes and spiders.
 
Elevators scare the **** out of me. I'm not afraid of it falling. I'm not afraid of small spaces (though I am rather uncomfortable in them; being a sasquatch tends to do that to you). I just hate the way that it feels when it starts or stops. That little bit of a jerk when it begins to move, and then that feeling of floating and then dropping right before it starts. Brrr.

There are other things that I'd be afraid of in a relevant situation (the thought of parisitic worms living inside of me is terrifying, but I wouldn't be affected by that particular fear until I was actually infected), but that's my only irrational fear.
 
The only honest fear that will make my blood run cold is the thought of someone hurting my family or fiance. I can't stand the thought.
 
Heights and roaches... OH TEH HORROR!!!
 
I'm afraid of talking to people... I'm really antisocial in real life.
