Phobias [Merged]

OK so first time in this thread but i have an awful phobia of spiders. I know this is common. But i Get a cold sweat, i freeze breathe heavy it horrible. i go itchy all over. i also ave bad claustrophobia! i hate full cars small anything basically!!!

I'm afraid of spiders, but I don't think it's a phobia although it's obviously an irrational fear because they're harmless, the ones we get in England are anyway! I don't kill them, I always scoop them up into some container and deposit them outside. But they do make my skin crawl 😕

I used to have a fear of someone touching my wrists and I hated wearing anything on them, but that was because of a phase I went through where I 'cut' myself. It's not even that I was depressed, I know now that I was simply bored and seeking attention, but even at that level any contact with my wrists for a while after made me uncomfortable.

Have you ever broken your wrists or harmed them in any way?

No never broke a bone in my life lol and wouldn't dream of harming myself .

Spiders. But especially tarantulas. I cry, and I am 16...I once cried at a party in front of a bunch of strangers.

It's probably normal then, as wrists are delicate and sensitive. I wouldn't worry about it 😄

I am terrified of spiders. There was one under my pillow once (thank god I was looking for something or I would have slept with it there) and I stood staring at it for about five minutes. Then I prodded it with a coat hanger, and, hey, it was alive. Everything was off my bed in a split second, and I keep all kinds of crap in there (books, magazines, sweet/chocolate/gum wrappers, random bits of plastic and paper, hair bobbles etc). It crawled under my bed, and I could just see it. I sat staring at it for about fifteen minutes and eventually got my mum to get it away. I had to shake my clothes and bed cover for a fortnight afterwards, I was so terrified of that one spider have lain eggs in my bed 😖 Also with clothes I have left for a long time (jumpers, winter coats etc) I shake them. I just hate them, and I know it's completely stupid because they are harmless.

I also have a big phobia of being murdered. I'm scared to be in on my own, even in broad daylight. I was terrified the other night to go to the toilet, in case there was some random dude waiting for me. Then when I did go, I was scared to go to my room in case there was a guy in my bed or something. I was going into my room just now, and I was scared in case there was someone there; I stood there, practically shaking. I walk to the bus stop on the morning, and I'm scared someone will grab me, and even if I scream someone will think it's just kids messing on. It's not just being afraid, it's like my chest is frozen and I can't breathe. It's horrible, I doubt I'd even be able to watch the "Scary Movie" series any more. No more horror movies for me, then.

Idiotaphobia.

Acrophobia ~ Fear of Heights (but I'm over it to a certain extent of height off the ground, which...isn't too much, lol).
Arachnophobia ~ Fear of Spiders...*Shudder*..the small ones are cute, but any spider bigger than a few centimeters just creeps me out and makes me squeal.
Entemophobia ~ Fear of bugs (most bugs I'm not scared of, but the creepy crawlies and the bigger bugs like cockroaches and stuff like that...I'll scream).

That's basically it.

I never had a phobia until recently. Fear of being lied too, or about me too others.

I have
Acrophobia - Fear of heights
Astrapophobia - Fear of Thunder and lighting

I don't really fear anything else, i'm not scared of spiders, insects or lizards, i can easily pick all up and remove from my home if needed.
