Do you know or have weird phobias?

[asexual pirate;;]

I am afraid of worms, mostly. Those disgusting little creatures, how they flop around so violently when you pick one up. How they squirm on the ground. Then there's the ones that shriek when they are being greeted with death, and then ones that crawl inside of your body and wiggle around in there. Just imagine taking a bath with them. Sick.

{{Ugh, I start hating worms once they get to the crawling inside you/violent stage. Parasites are the worst. I can barely handle seeing them on TV, much less even talking about them.

Public Speaking.
It's common, but oh, god.
I can be so wild around my friends
and alright around other people.
But when I have a project,
I get so sweaty and
I almost pass out
because I mean
I hate being judged
and I don't want to say anythign embarrasing
and I don't want to drop anything,
look dumb,
or sound dumb.
If somebody presents before me and does it different,
I always think that I did it wrong and I freak out
and I just
no.
I'm pretty sure this is more than a phobia
but my parents won't listen,
they only say "lol you're lying",
yet they yell at me for all my other
five million phobias and don't even try to help
all they say is
"get used to it omg stop whining"

I actually passed out when it was time for my solo in church choir. It was so embarrassing one minor I was looking at the crowd the next minute I was staring at the ceiling trying to figure out why I was laying down at church.

I hate to admit it, but I think I have a fear of butter. Ever since I was small, I've hated butter (of course I can have it IN food, but not ON food) I hate the smell of it, I tend to trow up if it has been near my mouth, and I can't touch it. And when I was younger, I began crying whenever I smelled it too. I've grown less afraid, but still I am too afrad of it. I searched it up, and I think it is called arachibutyrophobia.
(please don't laugh, it is quite embarrassing.)

Scoleciphobia, the fear of maggots. I can't even say the word 'maggot' without shudderi. And it's just maggots, nothing else, larvae are pretty gross to me too but there is something about maggots that just makes my skin crawl.

Parasitophobia, I'm really afraid of getting parasites. I used to like my meat medium Rae, but after I saw an episode of monsters inside me, I couldnt do it anymore...

I also have the fear of preservatives, whatever that is called. They can cause all kinds of problems, and they are EVERYWHERE.

I also have Mysophobia, the fear of germs and sickness.

Yeah... I'm a little Bit of a hypochondriac XD
Meh, the last two are the only mild ones, but the first one is actually serious. If I see maggots, I have to barf. ene OH MY GOD WHAT IF THEY GOT IN YOUR CUT. I also hate flies, I have always hated them but now I do more Scince I have been taking horse lessons. They are born and they bathe in horse poop.

[center]{{Gephyrophobia; the fear of bridges.
I can cross them, but it makes me feel nervous and jittery. All I can think about is it breaking and sending the car/truck down into the water. And what if part of the bridge falls on the truck and I can't get out? I can't swim, so I'm already screwed.
I had to cross the bridge into Twin Falls a few months ago on a bus. It's an old bridge, and it's a long way down, straight into the river. One of my friends kept making the situation worse by saying that you would hear the bridge crack and it would be a really long fall, and all sort of other things until I was laughing/crying hysterically.
I just can't stand bridges. >.< I don't trust them.

I think I have that too. I hate bridges, but usally only get nervous if the bridges drop really far. I'm usally only scared about walking across the small ones. They can collapse and break at any time, you know.

Anyone have this too?

Horses.
They can be over in a field, and I'm fine.
But whenever one gets near me, I panic.
My friends got me to pet one before on the nose, and I was convinced it was going to bite my hand. ;-;
My stepsister even got me to ride one. I had a huge panic attack.
But it was fun; even though I thought I was going to fall off.
I also live near at least five farms, and I drive by fields of horses everyday.
;w;

Well, I have a horrid fear of mirrors. And dark hallways. >_< they terrify me to no end. Oh, and I also have abibliophobia.
I'm always afraid that when I look into a mirror, I will see something... unwholesome behind me.

[• тιraмιѕυ тea •]

I'm terrified of going to the fish area at the pet shop, as well as seeing dead fish. I have no idea why, but it freaks me out so much.

I didn't know there was a name for that. I think I grew out of it around the time I started practicing my public speaking on front of the mirror, but I still tilt the mirror back so I can't see into it when I'm in the bathroom. And dark hallways. -shudder- I always think somebody is at the very bottom of the hallway, just out of sight. ;-; And I basically dread the end of mangas/animes from the start.

In fact, I have all these fears. I wouldn't call them phobias in my case, except the mirror one, but I wonder if they go hand in hand?
EDIT: Not saying they aren't phobias, just saying I don't personally have phobias of these things, just fears.

I have a small fear of people. Once while walking home my neighbor was mowing his lawn and I was afraid he would say "hi" to me so I hid behind a tree for half an hour until he went inside. I'm also afraid to order my food in resturants and talk to people in general. One time a lady at the store told me she liked my jeans and I didn't know how to respond so I cried. Another time a guy told me he liked me and I paniced so I laughed insanly and ran away to my friend where I also cried. Ok so maybe I have big fear of people.
I also have a fear of being upstairs. Not like going up stairs or being on the stairs. Like being on the second floor of a two story house. I think it comes from nightmares I had as a child.
The fear of holding a gun is on top of my phobia list. Like I don't mind hearing people shoot them. I'm not of afraid of being near them or touching them just acctually holding them in my hands.
I also have a fear of people being hurt as a result of something I did. Like I worry that mistakes I make will cause the death of someone else.
I have a slight fear of things in certain numbers. I only like things in 5s, 2s, or 10s. If its in any other number I will get very upset and try to fix it. If its food for example 7 chicken nuggets I will give 2 to my sister so I have 5. If the TV is on a number like 29 I have to change it to 30.
On top of all that I have a fear of things ceasing to exist. For example I write alot and I'm worried about it getting deleted of my computer or my notebook getting burn in a fire. Or when I die everything I have ever thought, hoped, wished, dreamed, experienced, ect. will just not exist anymore because I'm gone and no one will ever know all those things. My fears are kind of strange. Someone should get me help or something.

i have a fear of people i dont know. if someone looks at me i run away. i also have a big fear of any of my my stuff being burned in a fire or getting put/lost in a store/school and i also have a fear of any of my fish jumping out of there tank because i will find them on the floor and most of the time they will be dead. i have a verry big phobia of guns too if i hear them i run so fast i also have a verry verry big fear of someone killing alligators. i dont know i just love alligators.

i also have this strange fear of people putting fish in bowls i just hate it and i wount forget about a fish in a bowl of a week so when i go to a pet store and i see bowls i just want to take them and throw them out or hide them BOWLS ARE FOR FOOD not fish. and i also cry when peole fight betta fish and say they are only worth $4
