Like most folks, I’ve always suffered from fear of public speaking. It has subsided some over the years, but I don’t think I will ever be fearless. My most terrifying fear is probably, fear of heights. I start sweating just thinking about being on my two-storey roof. Does anyone have any interesting phobias they’d like to share?

Clowns. Dear god, clowns.
That, and insects being in my oreo cream.

Frogs and heights - not necessarily at the same time. I’m a ranida-acrophobe?

I was terrified of birds when I was a kid. I still get a little nervous around them.

thankfully i’ve managed to get over my phobia of needles. mostly just from forcing myself to go through with it.
i still have a phobia of being late for important appointments? or is that a rational fear?

Heights, definitely.
Re: speaking in public - I almost enjoy it, as long as I know my matter well. In fact, as long as there is reason to talk, I’d much rather talk to a thousand people than just one person.

Since you’re ASKING…
Heights, needles, spiders, crowds (I really hate crowds, SO nervous around them), anime fans…
Mostly spiders and needles, but a heck of a lot more not listed. Almost the whole world.
How do I keep living? I am ever so brave.
