Woodlice. Living or dead. They give me the absolute heebie jeebies.
Not at all ridiculous to me. It’s my biggest fear. I can’t talk about it without having panic attacks. I can even feel it building just replying to you so I’m stopping nowMaybe not ridiculous but death. It freaks me out so badly.
It feels nice knowing someone feels the same. I get really bad panic attacks too when I really think about it. It takes over my life sometimes.Not at all ridiculous to me. It’s my biggest fear.

Wow.....I have the exact same fear !That the police will knock on my door and arrest me for a crime I haven’t done and my life will be ruined and I’ll never get to come
I remember in holby city (?) when Tess (?) got impailed by a pole. Fell backwards onto it and it went through her stomach... my 9 year old self was traumatised.Casualty put me off trains for a long time after I watched an episode where the train derailed and a woman (think it was Anna but it was about 20 years ago and I have never dared to watch that ep again) lost her legs. I was also only about 7-8 years old and it was probably the first time I saw something that graphic so it really stuck with me.
Begged my mum for ages to let me stay up and watch casualty as well but that ep caused me so much trauma.
Yes!The dark
Still as a grown up old adult I hate complete utter darkness
Me and hubby stayed at a Manor House once and the room was so dark I couldn’t even see my hand in front of my face, I had to get up and open the curtains
Sleeping in the house by myself when my husband is away
I’ve never lived alone, I can’t completely relax because of course whatever is outside is waiting for me to let my guard down
Lifts/elevators - hate them, moving metal coffins I live in perpetual fear of being trapped in one of them
Flying and turbulence- after every flight I say that’s it never again ….till the next time
irrational fear - sink holes
My intrusive thoughts tend to be around driving, e.g. wanting to jerk the steering wheel. It's never something I've nearly done though, however, growing up, I knew a man who had a compulsion to jump off piers. We lived on the coast but he rarely went to the seaside because the pull was so strong and unsettling.Yes!
To all of this!
Never think about what’s waiting outside when the house is full only when alone or darkness
Anyone else have to stop themselves from jumping off cliffs even though you know you would most probably die or is that just me?
Think it’s something like intrusive thoughts
