Acrophobia (heights)
Not 100% sure if it's bad enough for me to be a phobia, but needles.

Finally beat my fear of getting stuck in elevators.

Glad to have nipped that in the butt.

Claustrophobia. Elevators aren't TERRIBLE, but caves and tunnels wig me the frick out.

Claustrophobia.

I can't even stand to have my face too close to anything causing me to breath in my own air. I start panicking.

I've told people in my unit that if we ever get a chemical attack then I'm just gonna have to die because I can't stand to wear my gas mask for long. Gas chamber at basic was awful more because of the mask than the gas.

Talking on the phone. FaceTime is okay, though. If I can't see who I'm talking to, I get antsy.

not even sure there's a _____phobia name for mine. It's revolving doors.

First time I saw The Godfather. Never been right since.

Needles/anything with a stinger but moreso with wasps and yellowjackets.

We have a rule in our house: I kill snakes, spiders, etc. Wife has to kill roaches.

Thankfully, we keep a clean house and in four years have only had one roach in the house. That written, I'm absolutely phobic about roaches. If I see one, I invariably get nightmares the same night. I cannot step on them or get anywhere near them. The thought of them just makes my skin crawl.

Fear of maiming/amputation. Idk if there's a term for that.

Fear of large bodies of water, too.

I can swim, but I like to see the edges of the water I'm in.

Maybe claustrophobic... I never had a problem with tight spaces until I had an MRI last year. No panic, but it still was unnerving.

algebra anxiety.

it's not a phobia, but it an anxiety disorder.

i failed algebra 2 (was passed because i was an athlete) and killed Geometry and Trig for some reason and was a B student in PreCal.

Then i took my 1 class of Algebra in college required for liberal fine arts majors and was failing at mid-term so i dropped it and took Contemporary mathematics.

i think it went back to my Algebra 1 course when my teacher was the BB coach and they made a deep run in the playoffs and then started interviewing for other jobs, so he disappeared from Feb-May and we just shared answers. Just never learned the concepts.

It manifests itself in dreams that i have where my HS calls me and says we know you really failed and have to come back or we'll take your diploma away or my university says that wasn't a real math class. and then i get dicredited and lose my job and family in the dream.

I'm not sure if it's a phobia or just being smart. But the ocean just gives me the creeps. 99% of what lives in the ocean eats meat, I am meat. I don't need to be a part of that food chain.


When everyone is saying they are afraid of heights, are you talking 6' off the ground or 200' looking out of a window in a building?
