I can't sleep near windows especially windows without blinds, or a curtain.
I'm scared that if I do a home invader, or serial killer will break in and kill me in my sleep. Or something far more sinister will come in and God knows what will happen.
Or it will just stare inside and watch me sleep.
 
I live in NE US and am in terror of scorpions.

Look, I'm ok with bees, I'm ok with crabs I'm ok with hornets but mix them all into one evil super creature NOPE! I literally had to sit on my feet after reading that word :(
 
I have this weird irrational fear of a snake or rat coming out of the toilet and attacking my ass mid-shit. Also, wasps and scorpions can go straight to hell without collecting $200.

I don't think it's really irrational but I am extremely paranoid of road ragers who would get out of their car and shoot me in the face for accidentally cutting them off or something. I live in a certain US state where it seems like these incidents happen constantly. It even happened extremely close to a place where my boyfriend used to work and the guy wasn't legally allowed to drive OR own a gun! Shit's scary, man.

When I was a wee bonny lass I went to my step-grandma's house for a party and some of her other grandchildren and I were playing in the backyard. I'm not sure what chain of events lead to this, but I distinctly remember being pinned down on a wheelbarrow while one girl shoved a rake in my face because she was trying to make me eat the snail on the end.
Almost 20 years later I'm terrified of snails.

It's probably less "fear" and more "mild paranoia and resistance," but you know the text that's part and parcel with museum exhibitions, the bright text on a dark background lit by a precise square of light that guides you on to the next display? I find it ooky for some reason.

Especially when it tries to use casual language. It's like the museum is speaking to me and wants to be my friend. No. No, museum.
 
Spiders. Also snakes, and germs. :( Oh, and airplanes.
 
Not entirely sure if it's classified as fear of heights or bridges. Either way, I have an irrational fear of, probably, bridges. Especially bridges that you can see down, like the Brooklyn bridge.

I also fear puking.
 
Beans. I hate them, I will never eat them, and cannot eat anything that's been on the same plate as beans.
Needles. The thought of my veins getting pierced is sometimes too much. I get panic attacks when my blood is being tested.
Crowds/Strangers/Agoraphobia. I just can't deal with people.
 
I have a lot.

wasps
dogs
c-sections
throwing up
falling down the stairs
getting fired from my job for no reason
getting pulled over/arrested for no reason
being falsley accused of a crime
crowds/strangers
toxic shock syndrome
anything getting in/near my belly button
 
Dying in space.

I know, I know, it'll never be an issue for me, but hear me out. If you die on earth, you get buried or cremated or whatever, and the molecules that made up your body go back into the ecosystem. Circle of life and all that. Your body nourishes the soil, plants grow, animals eat those plants, and so on. If you die in space, on the other hand, that's it. You're out of the food chain for good, or at least for a few billion years until the sun explodes. Being dead sucks no matter what, but if you're a frozen corpse drifting through space it's like you're especially dead.

Also: falling in love with someone who you think is "quirky" but who is actually retarded.
