Does anyone of you have a phobia? If yes than write how it started or how you found out that you had one :p

I have arachnophobia. I really didnt care much about spiders till the end of last summer.

I was sitting on my chair chatting on msn when suddenly i noticed something tingling my hand. First i didn't pay attention to it. But after a few sec i looked at my hand and guess what i saw? A freekin huge spider!! Anyway i freaked out shaked it off and squashed it with a bottle XD

Then guess what happened? On the next day the same thing happened >_<

Well now, sometimes, with corners of my eyes i see something crawling and everytime i take a closer look, nothing's there and everytime something tingles me i freak out a bit.

P.S. No lame phobias like Bushophobias or n00bophobias please.

I have a fear of living long enough that I won't be able to take care of myself. Basically, I fear becoming old.

Arachnophobia to an extent. I won't freak out but I feel uncomfortable in their presence. Until I kill them.
And.... I have a fear of heights to an extent. I can always feel the wind about to push me over the edge.

I have a fear or a whole entire catholic school that really get's on my nerves, considerinding certain people I use to get along with that go to that particular catholic school don't seem to have respect for the morals or princiapls they are taught in such a school. Also there dishonesty and who exactly who/was/has been honest is another annoyance.

Arachnophobia seems to be the trendy must-have fear in this thread.

I have spheksophobia; fear of bees, wasps and hornets. Which made fighting The Pain so much fun in MGS3.

Also silenthillophobia, fear of returning to Silent Hill...

I got over acrophobia a few years ago. I used to have a terrible fear of heights, to the point where I lost all rational or logic when they were involved.

I've pushed myself over the past few years, and now I can't wait to go skydiving.

Not so much a fear, but I feel uncomfortable around big flying bugs. Not like, flys and bees and stuff. But big things, like June Bugs and Dragonflys, things like that. I dunno why, I just don't like 'em.

I have two phobias:

Cynophobia - Fear of dogs, not much of a problem, I can handle dogs, but I still have a small fear of them, I developed this after I got bitten 3 times for no apparent reason at all when I young.

Acrophobia - Fear of heights, pretty common I'd say.

i don't know what its called be needles scare and disturb me down to my very core. I can't even stand anything that FEELS like a needle(IE getting blood drawn, bee stings, etc...). I know it doesn't hurt much, i know for the most part getting shots is beneficial, but i'm 18 years old and i have to clutch the chair with all my might and squeeze my eyes shut and look away when i get shots or blood drawn.

I also have a slight fear of deep water, its not really bad or anything but if i'm swimming kinda far in a lake or the ocean i just get this really uncomfortable feeling. I'm not sure why it is, i'm not afraid of drowning or anything, i just start getting in a wierd funk.

I hate spiders. With a passion. Whenever I see one, no matter how big or small, I'm afraid it'll jump out and bite me, like a rabid dog.
