What are Your Phobias?

^ Same as above, except for the hot pockets. Those sound delicious.
Hmm? Oh, I have a fear of tree bark. For some odd reason, I hate the... grooves in the bark. *Shiver* I can stand pine trees and smooth-barked trees, but.... *shiver*

When I was younger I was absolutely terrified of skeletons, even cartoon ones. I can't really remember, but Mum says that one time I saw a boy wearing a top with a skull on it and I went into hysterics. I remember a trip back in year six (I was about ten or eleven) when we went to the museum, and I saw a mummy in the Egyptian section despite trying desperately to avoid them and had a meltdown in front of everyone. I had a children's illustrated dictionary once and Mum had to cover a page with paper 'cause there was a skeleton on it and I was terrified. Just looking at the paper over the page made me nervous because I knew it was there. I've sort of got over that by now though, but I still don't like looking at them if they're really realistic.

Because of the fear of skeletons, I was also scared of the dark too, since I was scared that skeletons could be hiding in it even though that's completely illogical. I've got over this too but I still have visions of skeletons walking around following me if I'm walking around the house in the dark sometimes!

Something I still have is what me and my best friend have nicknamed my fear of doors... if I'm outside a room and a door's closed, I won't open it because I'll be scared I wasn't meant to go in and that I'll get in trouble. I have to get someone else to come with me and go in first. I even do this when I've been told to be somewhere. On the other hand, if I'm inside a room and the door's open, I hate the idea of people looking in and seeing me or something and really want to close it, which I most likely won't. This sort of goes hand in hand with windows--I hate open windows. I'll never open them unless it's really hot since I'm paranoid about people hearing me.

Other stuff is heights (being two feet off the ground scares me and that says something), getting into trouble (if someone starts yelling at me I'll start to cry...), being late (I'm always early instead), failure, being alone for the rest of my life, like properly alone, not being able to do something (ties in with getting into trouble), asking questions, and I suppose a mild fear of bugs. If there's a bug in my room I'll spend ages trying to swat it out, especially if I'm about to go to bed. I get paranoid about them crawling all over me when I'm sleeping. lD

My phobias are...
~ Big Crowds
~ Small spaces (Im claustraphobic)
~ having an anxiety attack in public (which happens a lot anyways...)
~ Horse Flies, lol

I hate...
~ when people randomly touch me, like on the shoulder (it's weird, it doesn't always bother me)
~ loose clothing (which is weird for someone with AS, I guess it just makes me feel secure)
~ Unnessecary loud noises (like the megaphones used in my school hallways and my dogs bark)
~ when people lick their fingers to turn pages, lol

Asperger's: It's a difference, not a disease

I have Ophidiophobia I actually like snakes to the point I think it would be cool to be a naga (snake man) but as soon as a gardener snake actually came by me I piked up a rake a killed it. it made me quite sad that and spiders they just creep me out mostly I do have a fear of drowning so deep water and falling so heights.

Dolls and clowns. Clown dolls are the worst O.O
Other than that, I hate the sound of people chewing, or the sound my dog makes when she licks stuff, they drive me crazy - especially if for some reason I'm not allowed to leave the room or cover the noise with some other noise (ex. during dinner)

Spiders, clowns, and snakes.

I used to have horrible fear of dogs (cynophobia) but I have since recovered.

I'm scared of sudden loud noises. I just freak out.

Auburn Points
The Bold St Bridge (theres actually a good reason for this...)

Unexpected loud noises. Especially the bell in my school.
Visitors or stangers in my home.
Unplugged/battery running, broken laptops. I keep having visions of them exploding, overheating or setting on fire.
Being forced to go to socialising events, such as parties, weddings.
Fire alarms.
Being present in busy, loud shopping centres. Especially during Christmas.

Heights

The dark. Never grew out of the fear.

I'm afraid of dead animals (especially fish with their creepy eyes that make them look like they're staring at you), going swimming in a body of water that appear opaque, and all types of bees.

Mainly the mummies (the Egyptian sort). I have started freaking out in museums because someone with me wanted to see one.

Drowning in the deeper end of the pool (over 5-6 ft), the thought of giving blood, and I guess rejection (which is the main reason why I haven't asked a girl myself without friends talking me into it over and over again).
