"There's nothing to fear, but fear itself."

[Ho-Oh]

Omg I agree with so many of your fears, but I'll state my main fears that... scare me mostly.

FIRSTLY. SPIDERS. Yesterday there was a tiny one dangling down from the roof (idk where it went) and then I... got really scared, even though it was seriously tiny.

Secondly. Heights. I dunno why, but I'm scared of heights.

Thirdly, the dark. Spiders and other terrible things hide in the dark.

Now, based on everyone elses fears, I have kind of got a fear of dying due to being alone (and having a heart attack or something), and that nobody's there and knows I'm dying and don't find out til much later. Basically, that's why whenever any part of my body feels weird, I tell someone just incase something bad happens to me. Idk I'm weird.

And I don't think I'll get over any of them anytime soon. Though surprisingly, I'm fine in the dark if my eyes are shut. XD;

"There is nothing to fear, but fear itself."

The quote, a fairly well-known one, is motivating. . . in a way. It just makes me realize that some times there is nothing to fear than the actual idea of fear itself.​

I don't have that many fears. To start off, I might as well talk about the ones I conquered. I once had a fear of sleeping in the dark, but I got past that after years of sleeping without any light night. I once fell off my rooftop, which triggered my fear of heights. I got over that pretty quick by climbing trees. XD;

Arachnophobia, the fear of spider, is probably something I'll never overcome. Every time I look at them in real life, I just start freaking out. I am terrified of them. They are so small, but yet so potentially deadly. I really can't tell the difference between most of all. What I do know is that I should avoid them as possible.

Besides my fear of spiders, I do have one more fear. I fear rejections. I fear admitting my feelings for that girl and getting rejected. I fear showing my true self to people and have them cast me aside. I fear telling someone my true emotions and know that they won't give two cents. blahblahblahblah!

Everybody knows about my arachnophobia. However, I don't want the people in real-life to know about my second fear. During school, I always try to be the calm type who can face anything if he puts his mind into it. Some of my friends have even told me that I'm really confident and they can't see me being shy at all. I only told a few close friends about this. At least the ones I told understood and could relate to some extent.

I'll never get over my fear of spiders. Not even that Spider-Pokemon can help me. . . However, I know that my fear of rejections will fade away someday. It won't be that hard, especially if my friends are here with me.
