I have a number of irrational fears that come up, so I was wonder what other people were often afraid of throughout life?
3 irrational fears, go!
I'm afraid of: - Getting the hook of the hanger caught in my eye whenever I handle a clothes hanger.
- Flying on a plane (although I have done it many times, I refuse to do it now).
- If I wake up in the night I imagine there is a man in my house dressed all in black hunting me. It's so frightening. (I live alone).
No problem.. I have an irrational-fear of infantilising-words, such ‘tummy’ and imperative-terms that ‘adults’ use on an infantile-level, this is probably because of all the patronising-noises and grabbing that ensues after they say such words.. as such I avoid social interaction and relations to an unreasonable-degree when I hear such dialogue..
1 Being burgled - triple check the locks and alarm every night before I go to bed.
2 Leaving a shop and the alarm goes off and then I'll get arrested - actually am shaking from nerves when I leave shops because of this so now I try to only do online shopping.
3 Having a seizure when driving and killing myself or someone else - I don't even have seizures but I am terrified of this happening so much so I don't drive now.
Anxiety sucks.
A fine just, a valid list, but I'm curious, 'words'? Please expand
Road works..
Words..
Inductions..
Do these fears stop you from doing things? I find avoidance is becoming my teacher (trying to move towards the things I feel compelled to avoid in order to maje progress atm)
1. Going out and getting a disease if I get too close to someone.
2. Waking up and finding that my family have disappeared.
3. Being surrounded by water.
Thanks for that, I often do the same except I never think about it again after
