Please share your outrageous fears

[kjohop]

Funny! Thanks for sharing. 

This thread is awesome!

I have a fear that cashiers will think my ID is fake when trying to buy alcohol. I always think they are going to look at me and think , "Why does she look so nervous? This ID MUST be fake!". So weird, im about to be 23 and this just started.

Or when I take my birth control, I ALWAYS think that somehow it slipped out of my mouth and back into my water bottle and dissolved in there. So I always have to inspect my water after taking it. 

There are many more, just have to think of them

My friend told me i should send the therapist a bill..
i mean, i kept thinking, listen lady, when is it my turn to talk......

lol, great therapist 

I was at a kiddies party yest and they had some music on. I had a thought, "omg what if I start to dance!" i imagined myself suddenly dancing like a breakdancer and thought what would happen if i started dirty dancing next to this little girls dad.  I swear it felt so odd cause i could feel my muscles twitching and I felt like it was just going to happen.  Then of course, I would have a bloody muscle twitch in my bum and i thought omg im gonna start doing it

sat down firmly, and then had an hysterical giggling fit 

Those are always funny.  I get them in church.  I can usually imagine what the most inappropriate thing would possibly be.  Like...what if I just reached up and slapped an old lady in the side of the head sitting in front of me.  Or...what if I just started taking off all of my clothes.

I know it has been a while.. but I had to share.. I couldn't stop myself yesterday from asking my dentist if the novacaine was going to make me swallow my tounge.. thank god he is so nice and just answers me truthfully as if my questions weren't crazy. :)

Anyone have any new ones to share?
Hope all is well!

This thread really adds much needed humor.

I had the shoplifting fear, too. I kept being afraid someone would think I'm shoplifting even though I'd never done anything like that.

[missworried]

Thank You! That last one was the BEST :)

I have totally have the fear that just one person in the grocery line is out to get me.only one.

Yesterday I threw out an entire pack of cigarettes because they were on the porch with my husbands gasoline. I thought my lungs would blow up if I smoked them.

I wash my hands absolutely everytime after touching a bottle of cleaner or a can of lysol for the fear I may accidentally ingest it but my hands are dry!

I often think my dog will turn on me and attack me for no good reason.hahaha

I don't eat rice when I'm alone for the fear I will choke

When I go to the dentist I'm afraid the medicine will give me a heart attack

When I download music I'm afraid the cops know its me and there going to take me to jail. Hahah

When I'm in public I have to stare at everyones butt and every womans chest. I have no idea why. Hahahahahahah
These posts are just so great! Its so comforting to know I'm not alone.

LMFAO

I have phobia of islands.
The thought of being somewhere like Hawaii makes me anxious. It's surrounded by nothing but miles and miles of open ocean, so alone and isolated. It freaks me out! Landlocked countries FTW.

Oh- and the best part?

I live on an island.

[surfmonkey]

Hahahah I'm so glad!! I find that I choke on rice more often than most things! Hahahah once it got stuck in my throat and I paniced and I contimplated going to my neighbor for help. He would have laughed so hard! Hahahah hope your day is awesome!

For me, one of the best weapons against anxiety is laughter. If I can laugh at my fears then they lose a lot of their power.
I thought it would be fun to hear everyone's outrageous fears or worries that their anxiety has produced at one time or another.
So if you feel like it, please share! 
Here are just a few of mine that I actually believed at one time or another, if only for a few seconds, to be possible..

1. If my bulldogge starts following me around or trying to be close to me in a quick and obvious way, she must be able to sense that I am about to have a stroke or a seizure.

2. What if I go to the dentist and the Novocain will have a weird reaction with my body and will cause my whole body to go numb.. or at least my whole throat and I will swallow my tongue.

3. I fell down the icy stairs and thought my wrist was broken and freaked out.. not b/c of pain or anything reasonable.. I thought, what if a small piece of my broken bone fell off and got into my blood stream and will travel to my heart/brain/lungs and kill me.

4. If I am around different people in line at the store for too long then I fear that I will then become like them myself.. not people I know, like I am next to someone in line at Target who has a weird/bad hairstyle.. I fear that I will start to intensely want the same hairstyle and will eventually get the same hairstyle. Same applies to clothes or mannerisms.. bad jeans, ugly sweatshirts etc, undesirable mannerisms..

5. Not a fear, but this was a strong compulsion for me after my daughter was born in 06. Lucky me, every now and again it comes back too.
No matter who I was talking to, I would get a strong urge to make out with them.. imagine what it would be like to kiss them or lick their lips.. seriously.. cute guy at the grocery store, the 65 year old mailman, or the lady at the bank who pretty much had a mustache .. didn’t matter. 


 

    ROFLMAO - NOT AT YOU PERSONALLY - BUT I NEEDED TO READ THAT POST - U MADEM MY NIGHT!!

I Always worry everyone I love is going to die. I worry my house will catch fire or someone will break into my house. You're right.. Laughter is amazing.

[StarHunter]

Oh so many fears......where to start, where to start!

1. I actually had a fear of Aliens a couple of years ago.  I even seriously considered making a tin-foil hat.....

2. I am scared almost every morning of going into my baby's room and finding her not breathing.

3. I used to have a fear that my psychiatrist and my other mental care people were compiling a dossier on me to use against me in some way (frame me for a crime etc) - to be fair though at this time I was suffering an acute episode of psychosis........

4. I am terrified of eating out at restaurants/take-away places because I have a fear of my food being contaminated by bodily fluids (blood, saliva, even semen *yuck*).

5.  When my two eldest daughters came home from school with headlice once I had this irrational fear that if I didn't eradicate every last one immediately that they would somehow burrow down into their heads, through their skulls and eat away at their brains.........I know how silly! 

6.  Everytime I fill my car up with fuel I worry about the fumes causing a cancerous tumour to form in my brain. 

7. I also have a fear of losing my hair........I don't know why but I panic everytime I see hair on the hairbrush etc. 

8. I have a big fear of "judgement day".  I am always looking for signs like the mark of the beast etc.  I also worry that because my husband isn't really a believer that he won't go to Heaven - I am not sure I would like Heaven without him in it 

[surfmonkey]

I'm so afraid of eating out because I'm afraid they will spray bleach on my food! I ate a quesidilla once and it tasted like bleach and I freaked out!

Judgement day won't come for a while. Jesus doesn't know when he will be back :) but by the time the number of the beast is present, you'll be in heaven :)
