Everyone has a fear or phobia of something! What's yours, and why are you so scared of it?

Other than my fear of heights, I'm pretty much fearless (except for spiders maybe...)

I have some kind of fear, I just don't know what gives me that fear. To be perfectly honest, I don't know what I actually fear because I don't think I've experienced it yet.

drowning is my biggest fear i grew up with bad asthma so i know what it feels like to not be able to breathe and it doesnt help im not a very strong swimmer so by far drowning is probably the worst thing that could happen to me

im afraid of ppl not thinking that im not a sniper and heights and bugs Lol

Mannikans being at the top of my fear list.
Spiders being second.
All large deap-sea animals (whales scare the crap out of me)
Fear of not getting pickles on my hamburger
Heights.

Spiders are at the top of the list for me. Even the smallest of spider give me panic attacks.
I am also scared of the dark, yes I sleep with some sort of light on.
I'm claustrophobic and refuse to go into closets, because I was locked inside a tiny closet when I was younger.
And I don't do ladybugs, cockroaches, or any type of slimy crawly insect like worms, slugs, and leeches.
All of above give me terrible anxiety and hyper ventilate. C:

However! Horror movies, ghosts, and monsters are all my favorite things. Being scared, to me, is the best feeling in the world. I'm an adrenaline junkie. Scary movie marathon, popcorn, and cuddles are the quickest way to my heart. <3

As far as I know, I'm only really afraid of crawling insects due to a traumatic childhood event. All of my other fears are eliminated when thinking of either "Is there really a reason I should be afraid of this?" or "Don't worry about something you can't change"

Well, there is one thing that I'm deathly afraid of....Cows.
Now, before you all go off laughing, give me a moment to explain xD.
My grandparents do a bunch of cattle ranching, and us children, and grandchildren, get the lovely chance to help them
work cattle, pretty much whenever they want us to =P. Anyways not long ago we were moving the cattle into the correct pins, and if you know about
how this works, you know that you essentially run around and wave your arms and yell like an idiot, and this is SUPPOSED to scare them, and it usually does.
So we're doing this, and this one cow escapes from us, so we go back behind it and start advancing, in order to flush it to the correct area again. Then this cow just
turns around and stares at us, this cow has the look of blood lust in its eyes. This cow, instead of running away from the wall of people, charges straight towards us!
It charged my mom, and luckily backed off after it got within about 5 or 10 feet of her. Trust me, you don't know fear until you get a 1500lb cow charging straight at you.
After this, the cow does something we've never seen before.....it jumped a roughly 5 foot tall barbed wire fence....REALLY? So anyways there's my story, this got a lot longer than I thought it would, but I'm pretty sure this cow was the result of some Satanic Summoning Ritual or something like that.

For my fear, it would have to be what awaits for us after we die. After hearing all of those theories of afterlife, I'm not sure what to believe. It could be a heaven as a lot of people say, a resort among your dead relatives and others. Or it could be a hell that makes you regret everything bad you have done. Or even yet it could be nothing, and your existence is gone. I'm a person who thinks about a lot of things as you can see, and sometimes i can scare myself by thinking too much.

I would like to also add in any way, shape or form of slow death. The last thing i would like is to be burned or drowned and have to go through all that pain. I guess torture goes along these lines too. No way would i be able to deal with that.

so ive posted in here once but i have another fear and this one is as bad if not worse than my other fear but i have ADD i have it bad it has caused me issues in the past and the present and probably will in the future and i hate it i hate not being in control of my own mind and this is an enormous fear for me because though i honestly try my best to be modest i know that i am intelligent i have always been an intelligent person and it has been my most valued attribute as well as the main source of my pride and part of my intelligence is being able to solve problems as needed and to solve them well... i have failed at finding a solution for my ADD the only solution i have is the medicine which has been given to me and i hate it because it makes me feel as though im not in control over my own mind... im taking a generic form of ritalin which helps my ADD immensely but it gives me issues like being unable to eat or sleep feeling restless and every once in a while random mood changes now i realize this is already a very long post so ill finish it up by saying i fear the medicine i need to be able to be successful in school because it makes me feel as though im not in control of my mind and the reason i am posting this is because i havent been taking it due to this but i am failing classes without it so today is my first day back on my medicine which is one of my fears
