...what are you afraid of? I was watching a show and people are afraid of the strangest things, like pennies, peanut butter, and ketchup. Does anyone know what causes these phobias? My fears are probably very typical. I am a Necrophobiac and a Pathophobiac. Find what you fear is called here.
 
I don't like cockroaches too much. I know exactally why too, when I was little one fell into my bath and I freaked out. The moment that happened is forever seared into my brain.
It's nothing that my front brain can't reason my back brain out of, but there is definetly a heightened senes of fear for those particular insects.

I don't like em much either. When I was a kid one got into my shoe and I didn't know, I walked for 2 blocks crushing the damn thing with each step. I thought it was a rock but when my shoe came off and the smashed roach fell out, so began my hatred of roaches....

I also have a fear of jumping into water if I can't see the bottom, or its too dark to tell whats in it...

Nothing? Some people say that everyone has some fear. But if you don't then I am jealous! What a life I could lead with no worries.

acrophobia -- fear of heights.

I get dizzy sometimes if I am on the second or third floor of a building and look down.

**EDIT**
I used to hike in the mountains on the East coast with my dad. Still remember when I was, I think, 7/8 I had to jump across a very small ledge to get to the other side. For a grown adult it was just a step, for me at 7/8 I wouldn't do it. I get flashbacks every once in a while. I tried rock climbing and other stuff, but I still get dizzy and weak kneed.

My biggest worry is if my fly is up or not
 
i have a fear of losing my balance. i have had nightmares about walking down a never ending stair case and tripping. it stems from when i broke my femur skiing in colorado and had to have emergency surgery
