The fear isnt funny but the 'nothing should be that big' cracked me up!Eyes/touching eyes/the idea of eyes coming out
Whales, nothing should be that big. They are terrifying.

Leaving the windows open downstairs while I quickly pop to the looā¦incase a serial killer manages to climb in, unnoticed, and hide in the spare room/utility/attic but I try not to think about the last one
Youāve got to sit there, thighs gripping the toilet while you stretch your arms out and hold the door firmly shut all the while actually trying to have a peeSomeone opening the door while I'm on a public toilet. I always give it a little push/pull to check it's locked even though I just locked it
After an episode of Donāt forget your toothbrush which was hosted by Chris Evans (years ago). They planted a hidden camera on the back of a girls toilet for a week and played some footage back to her. I thought about it every single time I sat on the loo for about 3 years after. Checking for cameras 
Omg the episode on X Files of something coming up the toilet did the same for me for agesAfter an episode of Donāt forget your toothbrush which was hosted by Chris Evans (years ago).

Iām sorry but I wouldāve died laughing if I witnessed that
Wouldāve been a different story tho if I was the woman.
Another one for me: moths. Iām terrified of them ever since one got stuck to the back of my jumper when I was about 6 or 7 and my mum locked me out of the house screaming. Traumatised!
You're brave for even attempting it
I've worn glasses for over 25 years and it's bad enough having an optician look into my eyesI play hockey and thought I would like to be able to see the ballā¦You're brave for even attempting it
old age.
i suppose itās irrational because itās an inevitable thing that happens to all of us but the thought of being in my 80s/90s and onwards gives me the absolute fear

Same as me...I can't have any windows/doors open at night time during the summer with fear that they'll come fluttering in.Iām sorry but I wouldāve died laughing if I witnessed that

I'm pretty much the same with butterflies, I just can't do unpredictable movement.
Another thing, is turbulence. Flying is not the issue. I know the plane is safe. I actually enjoy flying (in smooth conditions) I'm ok with all that...but I fear turbulence. It's unpredictable and there's something about being chucked about at 38000ft that is unnerving.

Attick doors, wherever we have lived I've always made my husband put bolts and padlocks on the outside of the door. Christ knows what lives up there 
It was a childhood fear, but if I didnāt have the sheets pulled up quite high, āthe witches would get my earsā.
I still have ears, thankfully - so I must have been thorough with the sheet arrangement. Not sure where the idea came from, though!

I used to near on suffocate myself sleeping with the blanket tightly over my head, with the smallest area to breathe out of, cos I was so scared of ghosts!.
Wotsits.
Yep, I have a very real phobia of Wotsits
I literally can't be near anyone eating them, anyone comes near me with them I run/hide/panic/cry.

Cotton wool. I can't bare to watch people use it, touch it, pull it apart.
Baked beans. The smell, the taste, the texture.
I.leave the room if anyone has either of these.
Oh & clowns. Freak the hell out of me.

A rat biting my arse or my coojie while I'm on the toilet.

The way vines clamber and grow up walls, buildings, streetlights, anything it can get its vineage on! HA IS VINEAGE EVEN A WORD?When I see them completely encasing someones house and their window, it gives me the creeps!!!

I'm the exact same!! I can't bear it! I really lose my cool and flip out if my OH sits on my legs.
Being suddenly screamed/shouted at - but I think that comes from childhood trauma.
Leaving windows open at night or when leaving the house
Heavy rain, wind, bad weather in general.
skin, fingers, toes, legs, arms being chopped or sliced off.
whales, sharks, anything big under water, ship wrecks, plane wrecks, submarines, etc.
Spiders or bugs crawling out from plug holes..
I'm a bit of a scaredy-cat who could sit here and list all day lol..

are you me? this is exactly what I do
house subsidence
someone in workās house had huge issues just as i was buying mine (after taking up a huge oak tree in their garden without properly preparing) and i still find myself staring at tiny cracks in my wall or ceiling like: is this it?
also any kind of water damage or leakage. again based on horror stories overheard in work, mainly from when someoneās bath fell through their ceiling. and actually ceiling collapse in general.
(in short: i spend a lot of time staring at my living room ceiling)
