I have a few fears I consider normal...such as fear of heights and deep water. Then I have two fears I consider completely irrational. My main one is of people in animal/mascot costumes. I cannot go to Walmart near Easter, in fear that the damn Easter Bunny will be there. I don't do sporting events. My second one is a fear of running over a chicken. When I was in elementary school , there was a house close to our local mall that had chickens and I would always make my mom slow down so she wouldn't hit them. As an adult, I had to drive past a house with chickens on a country road on my way to my previous job. I would start getting anxiety as I approached the house. I'd slow way down and my hands would be sweaty by the time I passed the house. Just thinking about it now is making me uneasy. I am afraid of them, too. Cos-play events scare the heck out of me. I have no idea why but they scare me. What if I saw Totoro walking down the street or something. I would lose it.

Totally thought I had posted in this thread, but I can't find anything from me. So my phobias are the BC triumvirate of wildlife:
Cougars & wolves & bears... oh my!
And I won't swim in the ocean, because: SHARKS.

I have a notebook that I made many years ago of Scripture to meditate on when I feel afraid. I pull it out and read it and add to it whenever fear comes.

Being buried alive because of that stupid movie called The Vanishing with Jeff Bridges. It gave me nightmares for months!

Got an hour for me to list them all?
Most prominent: spiders; driving over tall, narrow bridges; flying.

Teeth falling out. Toes falling off.

Finding a dead body, especially where I'm swimming. You see it on the news all the time...someone stumbles upon the remains.
