Also, not really a fear but I don't appreciate the people that have tried to hurt me with guns, knives, baseball bats, sticks, body parts (fists, head, knees, and feet), beer bottles, boards, cars, trucks, a three foot tall ceramic cat statue, an icepick, pieces of furniture, bodily fluids, bricks, poles, doors, and my personal favorite, an ax. Oh yeah, and the person that literally tried to clock me over the head with a mantle clock.


0_. Sounds like their family tree produces alot of nuts.




noway


I just want to be clear that none of those people were in my family tree. I met all of them professionally.

I fear heights, how do I face them when I have to go up some place high? I plaster myself to the wall or whatever is closest and do not look down.


Spiders Vs my foot who do you think wins? laugh

Tremendous responses!

I also see a lot of restlessness...




Spiders never sleep... They are always on the prowl...
But how about this for something to creep you out???





or this...

Your fears don't exist outside the realm of your own head. Therefore whether they exist or not, it is a null set and therefore you can logically override the fear as irrational and pretend they don't exist each and every time.



I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain.

I used to have a huge fear of death. I couldn't even talk about it. So I ended up working at a cemetery for 8 yrs.

Im not going to get into my fears.


Id rather stay in the soloution, and not the problem. (been there)


I face them.

I deal with them by meditating, and takin time for myself each day to be alone, and think, and pray.


I do things to feed myself inside, like read inspirational materials, self help, and spiritual materials.


I surround myself with other realisitic people who admittedly live life on lifes terms, and that they themselves are not perfect.

I do nice things for myself, and take the best care of myself I can possible.


Ultimately I believe in a power greater than myself, no matter what it is, and get out of my head about the importance of these fears, disallowing them to manifest themselves, by obsessing on them.

I have faith in something I cannot see.

i HATE frogs and toads. When i was 3 or 4 we lived in a trailer that had an avocado green kitchen and bathroom. What color are frogs? Green! Perfect flipping camoflage. There I am playing in the tub, go to grab my rubber duck and frogs are all over it! Swimming in the tub with me. Hiding behind the bottle of shampoo. Frogs in the green toilet, jumping out of the sink, hopping down the hallway. And toads are just bigger, ugly cousins. I let out a high pitched shriek when i see one. Really embarrassing.
