Oh, just about everything! If it gets bad enough, I have full on panic attacks.

SPIDERS! They freak.. me.. out. When I encounter and eight-legged enemy I spaz out a bit, I whimper, and I just stand there watching them. (Paralyzed in fear most likely..)

Eventually, I get over it and just smack those suckers to smithereens.

dusk…the thought of being alone at night
schools… in any shame or form
meeting groups of people
meeting people on their own
....people.
the thought of losing my son (i.e. in a supermarket, park etc) haunts me ALL the time
singing on stage
confrontation of any kind
thinking about the future
sometimes…just even stepping out of the front door
waking up on a Monday morning

and i feel my heart pounding and i go very queezy and feel a strange ethereal sense of impending doom…. very disturbing!

Speaking in public. My hands get all sweaty, my heart beats a mile a minute, and I feel like I just can’t get any words to come out. I usually do a fine job, but I feel like I’m failing at it. I also hate confrontation of any kind. I’m a lover not a hater, so when I see two people arguing or when someone attacks me, I get tongue tied and just want to leave the situation.

I think I’ll go watch The Good Son and get back to you on this… disregard this answer, don’t know how it happened but it was meant for a different question and I can’t delete this!

It also makes me nervous when I don’t like the answer that I gave to someone on fluther, and I can’t take it back! sigh

Performing before people when I am unprepared. Sometimes I agree to do something that I shouldn’t. I’m learning that I can cancel things when I’ve done that.
