"I'm afraid of Americans!"
But seriously If anything freaks me out, it would have to be the use of needles or any kind of drug that requires injection. I have no idea why but I just get so unsettled by it. I've never done drugs in my life but I use to read about it in health class and was never phased by it until a few years ago. It's weird to talk about.

I fear very little in life, to be honest. The only thing that gets to me is being stuck in a very small (read not much bigger than I am) confined space in total darkness with no sound. It's not an instant freakout, but paranoia sets in right away.

Bleeding to death,unsupported heights (it used to be hell sitting in bleachers but I'm getting alot better),and brown recluses. Not all spiders..just the ones that can rot my flesh. Edit:Oh yeah and bannana spiders..but I mean come on I step out on my friends deck and go to light my coggerette and the flame is reflecting off the thorax of a spider thats as big as my head. frank.itlab.us/spider_2002/large/first_sight.jpgThats not a great photo but it gives you an idea of how big they can get. Holy crap that is one big arachnid. Now I am afraid of those too.

I'm terrified of open water like lakes, ponds and oceans. I'm fine with pools as long as they have a lifeguard

They're a lot like Garden Spider, both in size and colors. Though Garden Spiders tend to have more black. I love those things, they really are pretty looking spiders. I remember one time I got home from work, got out of my car and started walking up to my door. Well as I kept walking I noticed a black-blob just floating in the air. I couldn't tell what it was because it was dark, I kept walking and walking, until I noticed it was a big ol' Garden Spider. By that point it was only about a foot away from my face. I looked to the left, and I looked to the right, and the Spider had made a web go from the corner of my house, to the Mimosa (might have been a Willow at that point because we used to have one of those) Tree on the corner of the property. From the tree to our house is about 2 full-sized car lengths. I don't even understand how that spider made that web!

An aesthetically unpleasing enviornment. I feel downright uncomfortable and unhappy if I'm somewhere that isn't up the aesthetic standard I'd hope for. If a room is painted a terrible colour or the furniture is arranged wrongly, I feel uncomfortable and will need to leave that room. I suppose you could say this is my phobia.

Heights and Clowns.
Now the clowns thing has a qualifier. If they readily admit they are evil, I can deal. But the ones who pretend to be good? No, no way, can't deal. I know they are all evil, and the ones who try and hide it freak me the hell out.

Completely serious when I tell you this, and not trying at all to be a jerk, but that sounds more like OCD than a phobia. You might want to look into it.
