i'm deathly afraid of bees and wasps.

and scorpions but that's just because they show up in the straaaangest places in arizona.

nothing else bothers me. i consider things like snakes and spiders to be good pets.

but bees and wasps... not only can they sting you but they FLY!

For some reason I can't open those crescent roll containers; the ones that go POP when you open them. (Isn't that wierd?) I always have someone open them for me. I also don't like balloons and hate when they pop. I must have had a bad scare when I was little. I don't have a problem with fireworks though.

I have problems with stairs, especially at stadiums. I can get up but can't get down without a rail. Escalators are a big problems for me. I also have a fear of deep water; can't swim; failed novice classes at the YWCA years ago. lol

I'd have to say grizzly bear, mountain lions, and wasps/hornets.

I am severely arachniphobic (spiders) I have even been hypnotized several times and the only thing that changed was that now I can squash the little ones. But if they are too much bigger than a quarter forget it.

I am also extremely afraid of butterflies, didn't used to be when I was extremely little but now I can't handle them, I see them and run. I'm also afraid of heights really badly.

For me it's definitely snakes! Yuck!!!!!!!! I am an old biologist and taught for many years.......wouldn't allow snakes in my classroom, though!

I'm scared of what's under the bed.

**trytosmile** · 02-01-2005, 09:32 AM

MEN ... can you tell i'm upset with mine right now

I would have to say snakes and closed spaces.

**poetgirl** · 02-01-2005, 11:49 AM

I have a fear of heights and elevators -- not those things in and of themselves, but of falling.

I'm with you on the crescent or refrigerated biscuit cans. I always have my husband open them and I go across the room and cover my ears! LOL

My biggest fear, though, is...plants, especially weeds and vines. Wierd, huh? I have found that as long as I can't feel them, it's not as bad. I actually was able to weed my flower garden this summer as long as I wore gloves. I will say I got tangled in seaweed when I was little and visiting the ocean, but it wasn't near being life threatening. That's just the only thing I can figure is maybe where it came from... I may be a little

LOL
