Talk about whatever is on your mind, if it doesn't go anywhere else.

List time!
  • Insects of all kinds.
  • Heights (I have, of recent, been overcoming this, as some of my volunteer activities have necessitated climbing ladders to change bulbs in theater lights)
  • Spiders. This is very severe.
  • Phone conversations. I am seriously afraid of talking on the phone. If you call me, I will email you back.
Over time, I've gotten over my fear of elevators, escalators, and public bathrooms. I suppose that's an achievement.

Arachnophobia when combined with Claustrophobia, like under the house. Neither affects me by itself.

Hot dang, didn't need to know that you had Medomalacuphobia, that's just wierd.

Also, the word astraphobia covers lightning, and it's cooler so...

Also, I love nights where there is so much thunder, the electricity goes out. It leads to candlelight games of Uno! But then that leads to swearing...

I'm a bit afraid of myself.

And I'm not joking here. I'm not as egotistical as I look. Wait, I'm not egotistical.
