Phobias

[Venomyz]

Here is another topic to make you think, maybe.
WHAT IS YOUR PHOBIA?

if you don't know, a phobia is something that you are terribly afraid of.
here is a Phobia List website, and determine your phobia.
and post it on here, and share some experiences you've had when facing that phobia.

i'll start.

I have Achluophobia- Fear of darkness.
i can be in the dark when it comes to sleeping or when i'm with somene, but alone? forget it.
but it's not really a big deal of a phobia for me.

and i know a lot of people share this one phobia.
Claustrophobia- Fear of confined spaces

i was once told to get into this teeny tiny little van where hardly any air was available.
once i entered, i turned red liek a tomatoe and dashed out, crying.
yes crying.

i think this one is my first phobia.
Ereuthrophobia- Fear of blushing.
weird name...
i hate blushing and i get anxiety attacks when i feel one coming.
it's awful.

so far that's what i'm scared of.
name some you have!

If you truly have nothing to do or want to up your post counts... you WANT to do this.

I have searchaphobia, or the fear of using the search bar to find that my topic idea isnt original, and has been done to hell and back.

i once went into an isolation tank and went into a state one might refer to as "zen" or "nirvana", and now i have no fears.

[BrainlessDan]

do you make a living in being rude?
i think you ought to be paid if you don't.
and by the way, since maybe you haven;t noticed, i am new, and on my last topic, i mentioned how i was too lazy to check if any old ones had been posted.

now in my opinion, some people, like the ones who aren't you and your companions with the same opinion as you, like this topic.
so, to not waste my time or anyone elses time, just click the back button, and continue searching for a better way to allieviate your boredum and save us the trouble of having to discuss over such a silly matter like this.

Girl, and yes i noticed thanks for letting me know.
If the mods have a problem with it, by all means let it be taken away.
But i think it should stay for it's an interesting topic.

why don't you share your fear?

That's very interesting, why did you go into a tank?
just curious.

[BringMeTheDarkness]

well before i went into that awesome isolation tank. I had a fear of the Dark (supernatural reasons, e.g. demons, ghosts, etc.), Spiders or big insect (i still choose to avoid those), and roller coasters (which im still not sure if im scared of or not).

Well, my friend had offered it to me, and i had heard awesome things about sensory deprivation (isolation) tanks so i decided to give it a shot, and well, it was a pretty enlightening experience.

People, we have another attention-whoring lazy noob on our hands that is going to be flamed off the site within a week.

attention-whoring?
who's the one trying to be all tough X-core through the net, on a game forum!
but i appreciate the effort!

and lol i am lazy and i am a noob, but not so much of a noob.
i'm not computer illiterate, i understand what i'm doing and i don't go off insulting random strangers.

by the way, the rules did say to talk about something interesting.
and i don't know about you but i find phobias a good topic.

and why would i be "flamed off the site"?
for being polite about your rudeness?
funny joke.

[mrpwnzer]

well as of now, you're off topic.

but to be on topic, I have a fear of spiders because of a goliath bird eater spider incident. nuff said

You've posted 3 used topics in the past hour, I don't exactly know what that's called, but I consider it attention whoring.

I don't have to know you to know that I'm really tired of you being a smartass.

If it's been used, it's not a good topic.

There have been people like you before, on their first day here they go around doing every possible thing they can to get attention, wether it's intentional or not, and eventually people just grow tired of them and they leave.

[BringMeTheDarkness]

I believe anybody who is arguing for anyreason at this point is not contributing to the topic and subject to banning, not that i have the power to administer it. so i would suggest that everybody calm the fuck down and get back on subject. ive already contributed my bit, so why doesn't everybody else also do so.

Oh really?
so trying to come up with a good topic to have good conversations with intelligent people unlike yourself is considered attention whoring?
Oh please enlighten me with YOUR intelligence, what else have you thought of.

i'm not being a smart ass but i am being sarcastic :)

if i were to, lets say be looking for attention, i'd put a topic that goes something like...
"look it's me!"
or another one like "OMG this is so FUNNY!"

So... i didn't know topics like
"Lust and Love"
"What do you think happens after death?"
and "Phobias"
where considered 'attention whoring'.

you're very brave no doubt about that.
i can never have the balls to perform something that seems impossible to me like that.

i cannot face my fears.
i wish i knew how to though.

Its actually not that hard. Its a tank that is filled with salt water (so you can float) that is heated to skin temperature (so you cant tell the difference between the water and air) and is filtered with pure oxygen (to give your brain a little boost) and it is pitch black. So you lie there for about 20 min. and then your brain just starts naturally tripping and you go on this psychedelic experience. its very refreshing.

I have a weird phobia that there isn't even a name for. Some would say it's trivial, but whatever.

I have a fear of feeling the sensation of having paper and cloth rubbing between my top and bottom front teeth.

Some sort of tactile defensiveness?

ffs, that should have said "paper or cloth".

[Nano256]

Getting mistakenly stabbed in the eye when walking around a corner... biggest phobia for me.

huh... strange... it's like me when i get a nail filer, i can't really file my nails because it's this uncomfortable rubbing sound and feeling.
It's like a bad tickle on my fingers.

[tarahloveshentai]

I have the most typical: Arachnophobia. I know what triggered the fear and everything but that just doesn't change things.

Just seeing certain spiders freaks me out and makes me shape.
