Fears, Do you have any?

[pickle1972]

Buried alive.

There's a film on that I can't remember exactly what its called though and I don't suppose you'd want to see it anyhow It didn't end well

Walking down the street seeing a shadow. Looking up to see some giant asteroid slowly getting bigger, until it is horizon wide. I mean wtf do you do lol. Same with like a 1000ft tidal wave.

Other than that, heights. Don't mind going to high places, actually enjoy it. but it's if someone wants me to jump out of a plane or for instance abseil I just hate it and don't trust the parachute or rope. Feels like I will fall off.

Death. It's the end of everything, forever

Also, 3 years ago when I was in a stroke unit, there was a fella in there who was only 38. He had a stroke and had what's called locked in syndrome. That was beyond awful. He knew everything that was going on but could move nothing except his eyelids. One of my fears is having another stroke and ending up locked in like that. I think I would be much more welcoming of death if that occurred.

Imagine the thought of being in an operation. You cant speak or move but just awake to feel the blades and your skin/organs open to the air. For 1 - 3 hours.

Nothing, apart from losing my family. My lack of fear gets me into some stupid situations though, like walking down an alleyway alone at night in a rough area and getting jumped by a gang.

Kidney stones. Never had them, but the thought of them terrifies me.

Used to be loneliness, but then I ended up alone and was like... ba dum tsss

 

[Aedus]

Mine is the thought of being trapped inside my own body (locked-in syndrome), being consciously aware of everything happening around me, but not being able to move or talk or do anything.

Dont really have any fears now though not immune to being scared.
Between age about 7-13 I had a irrational fear of my neighbours dog. This led to years of serious nightmares mainly the dog eating me ( like seriously my entire body legs first bearing in mind this was all done like a crocodile and ate whole not in chunks ) seems funny now but those were some ******* awful years where I would be scared of sleeping because I knew what was coming!

 

[Rroff]

Yeah I don't really have serious fears though not immune to being scared, the only thing that can really have me on edge is the "unknown" and usually that is at a certain stage of tiredness.

I'm cautious of things like wasps but don't fear them.

Have a colleague at work who is absolutely petrified of butterflies - was one on the stairs at work and she was frozen - couldn't go forward or back - fortunate she'd mentioned it before so I managed to figure it out and remove the butterfly.

EDIT: I think the closest I have to a real fear - one of the worst possible scenarios I can imagine is people thinking I'd died then waking up to find I'd been buried but not actually dead.

 

[gamerdude1989]

I guess it's the point of death that worries me, like feeling pain the fear of knowing what's going at that precise moment

im not scared of dying, as such.. As i know its just something thats out of my control..
But its the thought of living on this earth for a number of years, to just pass away, and thats it...
Like, what happens after death!!! sadly its a question thats never been answered correctly, and probably never will..

surely, we're not just born, live our life on this earth, and then when we die, thats it!!

everything we have ever done, ever learnt, anyone we have ever loved.. All gone...

and the fact that, when i die, i will never be alive, ever again...

that really bothers me...

sounds stupid i know. But surely there must be more to it, than living and dying, and thats it.. or why would the human race exist at all... There must be a meaning of life, aswell as a meaning of death..
not just because "it happens"....

My spider is still in the bathroom sink
I have to remove him surely or he might die I don't want him to starve
Why pick my sink

 

[Terminal_Boy]

I'm afraid of posting in forum topics and having people quote me.

You Sir, have met your Nemesis!

 

[pickle1972]

I've had an idea I think he's in the there coz the silly thing can't get out he is too big to fit down the spout and I wouldn't want to wash him away.
So Im going to put a towel over the edge to give him a little ramp
Clever

 

[olivier renault]

spiders, they creep me out.

Speaking of which, ...

- Spider bit my elbow.
- Size of a golf ball.
- Burns like a mother...
- How long do I have to live?
- Advice please.

The bugger is probably no bigger than a thumbnail. Need to hunt it down before it does it again.

 

[pickle1972]

They bite? you mean it has teeth?
Thanks for that Olivier that's very helpful
