It's Scary!

[Arrethtraen_Sprocketline]

I got it. I laughed. And then I realized that I was laughing during a . . . serious time. Now everyone is mad at me. -facepalm-

[Emily_Purplebottle]

Okay...here’s a few.

My biggest fear:

• I’m not going to say because I believe it’s to inappropriate.

Other fears:

• Bears
• Really loud things
• Nothingness
• Snakes
• Clowns
• Never being able to listen to music ever again
• Loved one’s dying
• The dark (a small fear)

SPIDERS!

• Snakes
• Clowns

Snake-clowns! (Cringe)

This topic is unbiblical:

Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the LORD thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.

Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?

[Hanna_Brassheart]

We are humans, therefore we are not perfect, therefore we worry. Worrying is unfortunately a part of human nature. Using this topic, we might actually be able to help others overcome their worries and fears, which means this is, in reality, a Biblical topic.

On second thought, it depends on how this topic is used. If people this topic turns into a 'fear-fueler,' that's not good and is unbiblical. But if people use this topic as—I don't know—a sort of therapy, a place to show tips of overcoming irrational fears, etc., this topic is Biblical, practical, and helpful.

[Hans_Oddcraft]

I’m afraid concerned that this topic will become more of a pity party topic than a ”therapy” topic.

[Iliara_Mustardtop]

Agreed. Also, some fears (like mine of Indian desserts) are funny. Actually, laughing about something you’re scared of can work really well to help you not be scared.

Things with holes in them. And dead sunflower seeds still on the flower. Shivers and rabid raccoons.

[Sierepica_Fuzzywalker]

Snakes - especially poisonous ones
Driving my car backwards off a hill
Centipedes - being bit by bugs in the dark when I can't see them

I used to be scared of people being angry at me and what they would do as a result, but I have worked on overcoming that fear in God's power and grace. God is sovereign and in control of other people's actions, and nothing happens to me that isn't a part of his plan.

Including the bugs and the snakes. But I think I will avoid the snakes and murder the centipedes that apparently like climbing in my window anyway.

[Shelara_Purplematch]

and murder the centipedes that apparently like climbing in my window anyway.

Ack! They climb in your window?

I am scared of centipedes too!!!!

[Sierepica_Fuzzywalker]

Ack! They climb in your window?

Yes. The first centipede I actually missed - it made terrible hissing noises when it came into the room and I tried to hit it with a blanket thing...it lived in the house for months and got huge until my dad finally killed it. Fortunately it didn't seem to be interested in me. I guess it was scared of me more than I was of it.

The second one got stuck in between my window frame and the outside of the window, and I was able to use a tissue to chop it in half and end it. God had mercy on me.

I still don't like them though. They make terrible hissing noises and move fast, and they can bite.

[Iliara_Mustardtop]

I haaaaaate centipedes, but fortunately in this house all we have is the occasional cockroach. Still not fun, but I’ve learned to overcome my fear of killing them. I hate things that...squish...

[Julie_Martin]

Hm, fears. I honestly don't know. I mean, I do get afraid of stuff, but I can't think of anything specific... OH I know.

1. Hans taking over the world.

[Julie_Martin]

Yeah, everyone says that about me. But sometimes its.. weird. If I stay alone too long, even being around people doesn't fix it, and I get into this depressed funk. It goes away after awhile, but its really odd. No extrovert I know experiences the same thing. Maybe I'm just a little lonely potato that needs to be surrounded by friends. :T

1. Bad animation, ITS HORRIFYING.
2. Things slowly walking up to me, my sister would do this for fun because she thought I was funny, but it FREAKED ME OUT. Still does now. If something slowly creeps up to me, in a crouched-kinda position, my nerves explode.
3. Deep water. Okay, before you say, "Everyone doesn't like being in the ocean to far out!" ITS NOT JUST THE OCEAN, SWEETHEART. (And this does not happen when I'm in the pool, everyone asks that) Once I was walking across a log over a small creek, and the water was only like, four feet deep, and the water was clear! No worries, right? NOPE. I froze up on the long and nearly fell in EVERY TIME I WALKED ACROSS. Even tide pools make me freak.
4. Glitching screens. Those speak for themselves.
5. (I am really digging down to see what I'm afraid of here) Uhhhmmm, what people think of me, THATS a big one.

[Lila_Lightcraft]

Bad animation, ITS HORRIFYING.

I agree with you there.

Things slowly walking up to me, my sister would do this for fun because she thought I was funny, but it FREAKED ME OUT. Still does now. If something slowly creeps up to me, in a crouched-kinda position, my nerves explode.

For me it's when things slowly turn around and I don't know what they're front looks like so when I see them slowly turning I start freaking out 'cause their face is probably going to be freaky!!

Glitching screens. Those speak for themselves.

Oh. M. Goodness. YES!!! I hate those

what people think of me,

Aww, that shouldn't scare you! If you know that God loves you no matter what you won't care what others think!

[Julie_Martin]

Yeah, my loving and caring anxiety covers that one. Most of the people I know have it in big doses, like me.
