Everyone has a fear of spiders, falling, etc. What about weird fears? Here are some of the weirdest fears that people have!
#1
Falling and scraping my skin.
I’m horrified, I refuse to run on concrete or cement, I don’t bike anymore, I just can’t.
I had a wipe out on rollerblades a couple years ago, my left knee has a huge scar.

I am afraid of holes but only holes in art. I am for some reason not afraid of ocean holes or holes in nature. Just...art holes.

It's not exactly a fear, but I have misophonia, which pretty much means I feel terrible with some sort of sounds. Asmr videos make me wanna throw up, but the worst is the sound the nail does when touching a screen (like typing), I once had two people around me typing with their nails, I panicked

The only thing I truly fear is one of my kids dying, even though they are adults. Oldest (28m) has a 18mo (boy) and a 3mo (girl). His SO wants us to be their guardians should anything happen. I'd do it, but I'm disabled and hubby had a stroke (minor) 6 months ago (57 & 60). I worry. Youngest has severe mental& physical health issues and I'm scared of what will happen to them. I know I can't control these things, but I lose sleep because of it. 🙁

any robot voices/ems alarms. they've scared me since i was little and i get this bad feeling whenever i hear any of them. tornado watches are terrible because my dad plays the radio and there's ALWAYS severe weather alarms. and i have to have my amber alert sounds turned off but when i'm in a room with other people and theirs go off i have to cover my ears or get out and not listen to it. i don't know why i'm so scared.

I am afraid of someone coming in the middle of the night to steal my dog… not the furniture or electronic devices, not even money we may have (we never do). Just afraid for my dog because he is the cutest fluffiest thing.

I am super scared of something smashing through my window while I'm driving. I swear that's how I'm going to die. Every time anything small hits it scares the hell out of me.

so I don’t feel fear EXCEPT when i’m doing in cars. For some reason, cars scare me so badly, if we bounce a lil or swerve, i’ve just accepted death.
I’ve almost died from drowning and felt no fear at all the whole time, but once i get in a car I’m a different person

I have very high anxiety about elevators. Not that I'll get stuck, but that it'll drop unexpectedly and I will have time to think before I hit the ground. The feeling after going up or down, that weightlessness, it hits so hard it's terrifying.

Poverty. I grew up quite poor and although I'm no longer poor, that's a fear that lives inside me every single day.

Sounds corny maybe, but my biggest fear is not being there for my kids. I will have nightmares that I have to pick one of them up, but I cannot get there and my phone won't work, so I'm just freaking out that they think I forgot them. If I have one of these dreams, I'm up the rest of the night. I have other nightmares, but with those, I'll go back to sleep. I had a violent childhood, but nope, it's the fear of my kids being scared that I'm not there

I am afraid of anything that seems "larger than life". It just freaks me out how big airplanes are up close. I always tense up near skyscrapers. Also, whenever I am on a bridge, I freak out as well. Not like a bridge in a park. Like river crossing bridges. My mind always goes immediately to what might go wrong. I think it's the feeling of having nothing under you that scares me.

I have a second one: knives.
I had to cut a single bagel. JUST ONE. And I panicked, cried, couldn’t breathe properly, the whole shebang.
I don’t have huge trauma with knives or anything. Maybe just a bit-
If you are super squeamish, don’t read this last part…

I was doing dishes at summer camp one year, and the cooks had taken all the knives out of the sink so I wouldn’t hurt myself. I saw the plastic cover for a pair of tongs, so I searched for the tongs in the bubbly water. Note: I couldn’t see through the water. I saw this wavy thing, and thought “Oh hey, there are the tongs” so I grabbed them. Surprise, not tongs, a serrated bread knife. A big one at that. I grabbed the blade directly, and sliced the pad of my pointer finger. I have a little scar there now, but it is very minimal.
