What are your fears? What are you afraid of?

Me i'm scared of heights , but it's getting better, fear of death, people dying such as close family members, boyfriend.

Also don't like clowns *shudders* and the weirdest one is that I'm scared of MOTHS!! A big one got into my boyfriends house last night, and was flying around, I kept screaming and hiding under the covers on the couch.

Later it was in our bedroom, hid under the covers, don't know if we ended up getting him or not...

Scared of heights, being abandoned or having everyone being taken away from me, being a "failure".........I'm afraid of myself sometimes.

My fears:
Myself
Anyone getting close to me
Beer, wasps, hornets (stinging things)
The future
Panic attacks
Depressive moods that I cannot snap out of

Beer? Fear of beer?What are your fears?

I am so glad that I am not afraid of beer. Yes that was suppose to be bees. I guess that is what happens when you do not run a spell check on your posts. What are your fears?

Been avoiding this as I have been avoiding facing any fears but here goes -

bees wasps and the like cos I am allergic
being abandoned by my loved ones and/or therapist
being attacked by a stranger or by my son's demented girl friend
that the depression I am slipping back into will be the last one cos I won't be able to escape it.

I must honestly say I am just about afraid or have phobias of everything.
too many to recall on demand from my mind.

General- Fear of leaving the apartment by myself in my city for more than an hour. Fear of going to peoples houses to visit with the exception of my Mothers house where I find myself able to be away from home for about 24 hours. Fear of going anywhere without my car. Fear of my car breaking down (keep spare cash in wallet tucked away for cab fare anywere I normaly go in the city), Fear of interpersonal relationships, Fear of people or what they say on a interpersonal level.

Currently developed two weeks ago- Fear of the television, began to work on this fear today as I have the TV on after being mostly off for 2 weeks. I am toningt watching tv while on the forum.

I am doing ok with it causing little distress. I feel I am having fear of the TV as it is a 'outside' source in such as social situations on TV as being another branch or extention of me leaving the apartment. Though I know I must stop this thinking of the TV people, and keep telling myself that it is not real. I was becoming worried or distressed over the characters of the shows that I liked.

So I guess the fear I am working on right now is that of the TV and the talking of the characters and stuff and the friendships and interactions with one another on the TV and not allowing my isolation to this 'outside' outlet of my home.
