What are your phobias?

[Ultima Dragoon]

It sometimes helps to have a greek around

It should be Apotychophobia (fear of failure)

And Atychophobia would be "fear of being unlucky"

Oh well. I'm just copying them off this site: Phobia List.com

Well it is a typical suspension bridge. Each one is the same one underneath the other. For wahtever reason I keep jumping off one only to land on the other. The skies color is pastel and I am alone and I can't see where the bridge begins or ends and there is nothing else except me and the bridge. No people, no water, cars etc.....
On the contraary I actually think about things for a long time and contemplate on them. My thoughts don't jump around excessively. I can't really gauge my mood well depression I assume.

Since the bridges are identical it could also mean that you try to change your situation (the other meaning of situation is where you are literally situated, and in the dream you are situated in the first bridge) by moving away, and jumping. But then you only find yourself in what appears to be in all ways apart from the fact that you have jumped, the same bridge. In non symbolic terms this could translate to: having a lot of thoughts while trying to change your situation, but although at some point you make a drastic attempt to achieve it and you also feel that you might have actually achieved it (jumped the first bridge) you still feel that nothing has really changed. The only thing that had changed was that you made yet another attempt to leave the bridge, but it didnt succeed in the most important aspect of it: to actually find yourself at the end of that attempt not again on a bridge, but somewhere else.

Clearly the dream has a general meaning, which shows that you have distanced yourself from your actual thoughts, and moved on to also make thoughts about your thoughts. Or so i would see it at least. At any rate this dream cannot reveal something more specific, although its explanation may not be entirely the one i proposed

Im really scared of moths, not those little ones the really big bastards im not sure why, i always find them really disgusting.
Taking tablets, i feel really uneasy when i try and take them, i dont think ive ever taken a tablet as i just cant bring myself to swallow them. I dont mind Needles though, i mean i dont like them but i prefer them a helluva lot compared to tablets.

Were you the one that used to have the custom title "Eatibus Anythingibus" or something like that?

I believe that was (and still is) Serutan, whose avatar is an evil-looking tarantula.

That's him. Just looking at his avvie and custom title makes me crack up.

heights, cliffs, balconies, public speaking, death and bees

So you are afraid of things that become bloated at times. The caterpillar is another interesting creature: it is long and has a slimy body.

Usefull to note that one is afraid of things due to their symbolisms, and not due to the actual things themselves, unless ofcourse the actual things are dangerous (eg walking near the edge of a cliff). All incectophobias though break down to symbolic reasons.

Actually, i get creeped out cos they're sliiiiiimmmy >_< and its the way they move! In fact, just thinking about it now to type this post is giving me constant shivers.
I know that toads and frogs are more likely to jump AWAY from me, and caterpillars are slow (but move in a creepy way) and slugs n snails are even slower but eww eww eww >_<

One of my phobias is being caught

 

[bhsup]

<nvm>

 

[cidknee]

well snakes, and bugs dont bug me. Ive had to eat snakes before. Anything I can kill with a rifle, knife or bugspray, doesnt bug me.

Needles do, and funny enough, deep water.

Heck I can barely swim to save my life, JUST made it when i did my ranger course.

Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia is the fear of long words.

I can just imagine the screams as the phyciatrist tells them they have this.
