Phobias

[Rand0m]

Anyone suffer from a phobia or type of dissorder?

[Twister026]

I am claustrophobic, when I am in a dark room that is small. I also hate bugs, somtimes i with they never existed and the whole world was bug free .

Mildly claustraphobic. I'm fine in small rooms or the dark, but I get really antsy say, when wearing a hazmat suit with a full-face respirator or fire-fighting gear with an OBA. (Although I'm fine doing scuba or wearing an oxygen mask in a plane.) I think it's the labored breathing that gets to me. After about 20 minutes I'm about ready to tear it off my face regardless.

except for in my own home, i cannot touch a door handle where most people would grab it. i either have to use something(paper towel, T-shirt) or grab it in an area where most people wouldn't touch it.

I guess I have a mild case of claustrophobia, the weird thing is my physical orientation plays a big part. If I'm somehow in a very confined space, to the point where my arms are restrained, I can manage it if I'm standing upright (picture a very small phone booth). Put me horizontal (like a coffin) and I start feeling panic. But upside down is the clincher.
Closed Space+Upside Down=Cavalierlwt freaking out and screaming like a girl. As a child I had one bad dream featuring this dilemma, and ever since then I had this bit of phobia. All of a sudden, from that day forward, wrestling matches and pig piles freaked me out.

Im afraid of solid objects with sharp objects...like if im sleeping on the floor and their is a computer desk... i will literally curl up in a ball and cover my head with my hands from fear of hitting my head or something on the desk... i hate when things are close to my eyes..i cant stand wearing glasses or if someone trys to put their hand near my eyes i freak.. i cant stand it when people stand behind me.. so i tend to stand next to walls if i can.. and i have a huge fear of spiders and cockroaches...

I myself have a few social anxiety problems. The anxiety before hand is bad sometimes, almost to the point of actually making myself sick. And during some of the situations I can't even function and look like a bone head.

[cavalierlwt]

Random, what's your social anxiety problem? Is it speaking before a crowd of people?

[=ender=]

I'm afraid of people with phobias. Oh, and zombies. Especially if they chant "braaaaaiinnsss."

[cavalierlwt]

Why be afraid of zombies? If you see a zombie behind you, you just have to walk a little faster.

Snakes...why'd it have to be snakes.
