I have a fear of heights, fear of falling, Trypophobia (fear of a cluster of holes), that one gives me shivers and goosebumps just thinking about it!!

I also have a fear of the dark.

What is/are your biggest fear(s)?

My biggest fear has always been to die alone.

Living a drab, meaningless life and being forever stuck there. Stagnation. Not finding connection with people. Being powerless. Never finding my niche. Failing people I care about. Not living up to my potential.

As long as I have a good sturdy fly shatter in my hand I can deal with wasps & spiders.

I love scaring my nightly house mouse when it wanders into me kitchen. It's more afraid of me.

Think my biggest fear was being in a bad situation & no one believes it's happening & getting accused of something I never did. The worst thing is this happened to me when I caught the home care person abusing my mom when she was dying of cancer. Everyone around said stuff like that doesn't happen to just normal people like my mom. After I caught her & before I could get her out of the house & get an agency in to take over, she called the police accusing me of being the one abusing my mom. They left knowing I wasn't the problem & right after that, she OD'ed my mom on her morphine. Had my mom taken to the ER but only circumstantial evidence she couldn't be arrested for. Lived through that trauma like living through what had always been my worst nightmare.

Well my biggest fear is the loss of income.

But I also fear the human factor of making errors. For example, I have no problem hanging off a cliff but I am terrified of being on a tower. The fear that it might fall due to poor building standards is too much to bear. Or flying; I understand aerodynamics but am terrified the plane hasn't been maintained properly. I prefer to be in control of a car; I make a horrible passenger due to my terror...

Finding out that all my memories are false, that I'm not actually who I think I am, and that the people around me aren't the people I think they are.

Its a re-occuring dream I have.

I am driven by a fear of failure. Things like snakes and spiders are nothing compared to the notion of being a loser. It's a big issue for me.
