I want to know what sort of things you fear. and i dont mean just your greatest fear, i want to know the smaller things too and if you know why or how you came to be afraid of it.

for me, when i was a kid i got into a car wreck with my mom and now i cant drive at all...when i took drivers ed i was terrified when i had to go on the highway..and if you hadnt guessed, i dont have my licence...i didnt even get my permit...not because i couldnt drive, but because i didnt want it
this isnt common knowledge about me...a lot of people ask why i dont have my licence at 21 and sometimes i tell them and sometimes i dont, but the ones i tell dont believe me so that helped to limit the number of people i tell

I don't drive on the highway either. I will take the longest route possible to avoid it.
I used to drive on the highway all the time, and then when my son was a baby and had colic, I remember he was screaming in his car seat, and my daughter and my nephew started screaming along with him, and I was trying to merge on..
I almost got hit and had to pull over.
I think I was close to having a nervous breakdown.

I have since driven on the highway, but I HATE it. I am shaky the whole time.

What is funny though, is that if I am already on the highway, and someone wants me to drive/take over driving for them, I CAN do that. We just pull over to the shoulder and switch, or go to the rest stop.

But I cannot exit or merge. Weird.

I'm afraid of losing my son, because I think that would represent a challenge I might not be able to overcome.

I'm also afraid of bridges and driving over water. I have a fear of going over and being trapped in the car. I'm slightly claustrophobic, being trapped anywhere gives me anxiety. Or even being constrained, I had a panic attack on an amusement park ride over the summer when strapped in too tightly.

When I was 16 my younger sister almost drowned in front of me and that triggered a couple of things (including telepathy), but one of them was a fear of drowning. My draconic chart might also show a past life in which I drowned. Ironically I swim well but can easily panic in open water.

I also fear heights (very common fear) but I push myself on that one a lot to force myself to get over it. It only bothers me when I get the sensation of vertigo. Actually I plan on addressing that one once and for all...I am going skydiving next year on my 30th birthday.

Well, I say I am...we'll see if I actually jump. I plan to though.

I am afraid of the possibility that I was ever evil and don't remember it. I try to become a better and more loving person all of the time. I would hate to know that I ever hurt people after consciously realizing that it was wrong. I say this because as a child and teenager I did people wrong but I didn't know any better or I didn't know the extent of the damage that I was doing.

I have no fears. I don't like needles (who does?), and I'm no fan of rollercoasters (they make my stomach queasy), but I fear nothing. I guess that makes me weird, having no fears.

Star, heh, i have large boobs so sinking and drowning is nixed for me..i float very well

Gypsee, i know what you mean, its a horrid feeling being on the highway and the highway where i live is no different than a regular road except of the multiple lanes separated by a median, but i just cant go on any major road if i'm behind the wheel..i also buckle up every time i'm in the car, whether i'm in the passenger or in the back seat

Nicki I have HUGE boobs, but your boobs won't do you any good if you are submerged. You will rise to the surface at least once but if you get scared, thrash around or god forbid inhale water in your panic, it will be over rather quickly.

I forgot a major one...insect.

Now Starr loves all God's creatures, but I almost want to draw the line there. Insects, particularly the crunchy ones, terrify me.

I will run away screaming at first sight. I have no idea where that came from.

You have no fears? Yeah, I bet. I love needles. You "dont like needles". That means that you are scared of needles. "Im not fan of roller coasters", = Im afraid of roller coasters.

Breasts are made almost entirely of fat, which is less dense than water, so the larger the boobs, the floatier they are.
