Somebody messing with my family and not being able to do anything about it. This terrifies me to no end. [/quote]
This! A few years ago my grandmother (who like me has always lived in KY, and i believe she said this happened somewhere in KY) was telling me how there was a case in which a man had just picked up his two daughters (i believe both were at least under the age of 16) and had just brought them home from school. Well two men walked in to their house and tied all of them up in the kitchen. Then apparetenly the two men proceded to rape the two girls in front of their father, who is bound up unable to do anything, only watch. Then the men killed all three victims, i think beheading one of them if i remember correctly.
Since then my worst fear has been the scenario in which I am watching someone i love be tortured, raped, or murdered. I have a dreams of situations like these, and it’s probably one of my true reasons for wanting to get bigger and stronger, just to try and prevent this from ever happening
I’m afraid my skin will liquefy then switch back to solid again with dust particles and what ever else I may have been touching at the time getting partially embedded in the skin.

These. I hate the thought that some psycho out there could be raping my girlfriend as we speak. Or some insane person could run up in where one of my friends or family works at and just open fire.
And I hate the thought of mediocrity. Just being some middle class guy that wakes up everyday and does the same exact thing.
I also fear people messing with my car. I restore and only drive old muscle cars. I’ve had one stolen before and chopped up, so I constantly freak out if I have to leave my car on the street or something.
And I also fear Prison, then fits in with the mediocrity though. And going blind and having any type of parasite.
Being possessed by demons or going insane and hurting people I care about. This has taken over as number one since I’ve had kids/gotten married. You read about all these people doing horrible things ot their owwn family and I just can’t internalize it properly and it leads to these feelings that no one is exempt from just snapping or being possessed and doing horrible things.
What if you just came to after doing some truly horrible shit you don’t remember doing and that you never intended to do? Craziness.
More as a child and teen, aliens. Fucking Communion. Fuck that book and it’s cover. Nightmare fuel distilled.
Crippling injury.
-On occasion social fears.
-On occasion a ‘trapped’ feeling while I’m driving, usually over bridges, through tunnels, or on highways.
some interesting things here…I don’t think I am afraid of death…I like to accept the fact that I am dying and that’s all there is to it. No matter what kind of death it is, of course it would be sad to die and before you die (say drowning etc etc.) where you have a little time before your death. I would just think of the people I know (my parents and gf etc) and yes it would be sad that I am dying and they are going to get this bad news. but more important I want them to know it’s okay that I am dying, I can accept it for what it is and how it has happened (unless someone murdered me, which doesn’t sit well with me and hope someone would kill for me, as I would for the close ones to me).
For all you who are scared of being forced to survive or kill…that sucks because that could be a possibility in your lifetime.
I’m really trying to think of what I am honestly terrified of. I know it’s not a break and enter…I am a paranoid guy you wouldn’t believe…I don’t have the fear of someone breaking in and trying to do me harm…but I just don’t like the idea of them doing it.
So I’ve had sleepness times over that where it’s hard to fall asleep.
I’ve also being in Aruba had someone break in the middle of the night, he was high on sometnhi lookin for cocaine.
He’s lucky he didn’t stay in the house to play.
For the people scared of making phone calls and what not…do you have that same fear when conversing in real life?
or is it just over the phone? Do you not like confrontation of any kind? (being in a verbal or about to-physical?)
SORRY for posting so much but I enjoy this thread lol
Thought of 2 more things: others have said it
Waste of life is pretty big now that I thought of it, not just being a bum. I see those crackheads n shit and I just wanna know what made them choose that path…how the hell did it get so fucked up for them to go that far?
2nd one is THE MATRIX - you know that part in the movie where Keeanu Reeves (the one lol) is in that train tunnel…and he runs one way to get out but it just leads him to the same point again and again. That’s pretty scary cause there is NO WAY OUT, NO ONE TO TALK TO, NO WAY OF ESCAPING.
So running in the dark would be pretty damn scary like Vegita’s story.
But in the end the 2nd fear would never happen…so how can one be scared of something that will not be reality?
one more…it’s the last I swear
I was watching 1000 ways to die.
A prisoner escaped and went into a tunnel to
OMG hahahaha my gf scared the shit outta me while I was typign this hahaha omg how ironic! I can’t believe that!
ANYWAYS he went into the tunnel to run away from the cops, and he kept going in and in but it was getting smaller…and he got stuck and couldnt get out so he’s stuck in this pipe and it’s tight, dark…and then there’s rats and they ate his eyes and what not and he died lol.
Being in that pipe as it got smaller and smaller and not being able to get out…TO DIE THAT WAY…that would be scary and suck extremely.
I think most people would go insane before they died though.
Somebody mentioned “The Descent”, that movie was a masterpiece. What a horrifying movie, with all the darkness, and the close spaces, it starts to play tricks on you when you’re just watching the movie, I can’t imagine being in that situation in real life.
On a related note, I also think that one of the scariest things is getting stuck somewhere. Spelunkers and cave divers call it a “squeeze”. How horrible would it be to get wedged between two rocks with no way out and just sit there knowing that you are completely and utterly fucked until you starve to death? (although maybe you’d lose enough weight and then you could fit through, haha)
Also, I’ve always been scared of large birds, like Ostriches, Emus, and Cassowaries. Fuck those things. If I was lost in a jungle somewhere, I would MUCH rather run into a wild jaguar than one of those things. I don’t know what it is about them, I’m not scared of getting kicked by them or anything, they are just frightening to me…and they look so damn angry, and mean all the time.
One dream that I had that was, without a doubt, the scariest, of late: I’m in my bed and I wake up to a noise. Someone is in my house. I go to reach for my gun, but I feel drugged. Every limb feels like it weighs 1000lbs. Every movement, no matter how slight, takes every ounce of my being, I get my gun, all the while footsteps are getting closer and closer to my room. (My room is at the end of a hallway) I finally manage to chamber a round, the heavy boot fall getting closer, only a few feet from my room. I go to point my gun at the doorway to blast this fool, and I fall off the bed, and get tangled up in the sheets. A thin sheet is over my head, I gain my bearing, and look toward the doorway (which you can’t see from my bed) and the light turns on. I have to wake myself up at that part.
To date, the only thing that has scared me to the point of tears is a pediatrician’s assessment that my little girl could have, among other things, leukemia. My little girl is my heart and my biggest fear is something happening to her; or me not being able to provide for her (Pursuit of Happiness).
Any kind of worm. (Funny thing is that I like to play with spiders)

how could i forget, my actual phobia is giant wurms. im not even joking, i used to play guildwars online and the giant wurms thatd randomly pop up made it very hard to play those levels, whatever it is about giant wurms, i actually cannot handle them and i tried, ive even passed out after trying to conquer my fear, ive ran out of the room and had to get someone to go turn off the monitor and speakers. so embarassing but its true, giant wurms.

Sorry, but King James had it wrong. The gospel, according to Sam Kennison:
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of Death, I will fear no evil; for I am the baddest motherfucker in the valley!
