8 Fears:

There are the obvious fears like losing a loved one, contracting a disease - stuff like that so I'll try to think of ones that are slightly different.

1. Disappointing people - I hate failing at things because I have a deep fear of disappointing those around me.
2. Clowns - They freak me out!
3. Bellybuttons - It's an actual phobia I have.  No one may come close to that area, if someone accidentally touches it or I see someone touch their bellybutton, I freak out.
4. Ever since seeing Jaws as a child, I am too scared to swim alone.  I always picture myself in a sea with a shark swimming behind me.
5. As mentioned previously, I am scared of having children and therefore scared of being around children.
6. Losing my ability to hear.  I love music so there is no way I could handle losing my sense of hearing.  So I do have to remind myself to turn the volume down on my ipod at times.
7. Not ever being good enough - I think this ties into my fear of disappointing people.  I have high expectations set for myself and the idea of not being good enough scares me.
8. I am somewhat claustrophobic - I can't even put a polo neck jersey on because when it goes over my face I freak out.  It all started in Grade 1 where I was playing hide and seek and got stuck in a small cabinet meant for files.  I was in there for probably only 30 seconds but it terrified me.
