Gosh I have quite a few, bedroom door open when sleeping, closet doors open. Shower curtain open.  Spiders and snakes. Being on a 4 lane highway. Germs, shaking hands. Geez I might need a phyciatrist. 🤣🤣

@RedTop - I can no longer drive on bridges over water.  My last drive over one, a bridge on I-65 just north of Mobile, confirmed that.  I felt like I was going to lose control and drive us into the water.  Never again.  Never. 


Why is it, when I have a 50/50 guess at something, I'm always 100% wrong?

I have a terror of open water/oceans-really any water over my head that isnt a swimming pool.Going on a cruise, even a river cruise, is abig NO from me.

 

DH is convinced I died on the Titanic in a previous life.

 

It doesnt help that a psychic medium, who I believe was not a charlatan, told me to avoid being on water at all costs.

 

You dont have to tell me twice.

Underground tunnels, caves anything underground.  I feel like I can't breath.  Went to Hoover Dam and I was a mess.

Middle lane on the interstate is the only one I can think of.  I don't want vehicles on both sides of me.

I can deal with a lot, but if there is a mouse in the house, OMG, I go out of my mind!

Snakes.  My entire life.

 

Highway driving.  Can’t do it.  It even bothers me to be a passenger these days.  If I have to be the passenger, I need a Xanax.

 

i never knew  this til it came up...my ex and I were in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, and were gong to tour an old copper mine.  When I started to go down into it..l panicked and couldn’t do it.  My husband went ahead, and I went back to the room where we got the tickets.  The lady working told me not to feel badly...that it happens to a lot of people!
