3 phobias that effect me alot

for the darkness, its not really the dark your afraid of, its a fear of the unknown, your scared of what you cant see, in the light you can actually see whats there, so no fear :P

i actually know someone whos afraid of butterflies, so your not alone XD

and last im kinda afraid of hieights too, i can deal with them but they still kinda scare me :P

i hate butterflies SO MUCH. like, ill be walking and one will come near and you dont know if itl fly in your face cause the way they fly is so spastic then ill freak out and run away or move away

butterflies. how?why? they arent going to harm you. they are more afraidof people then we should be of them

The other two are understandable, but butterflies? Really?

I'm afraid of butterflies, too. I think it's bullshit that they're legitimized as insects by the sole merit of their being "pretty". Have you ever seen a butterfly's face? They're so creepy! I hate it when people say, "oh, it's just a buuuuuuuuutterfly, it won't huuuuuuuurt you." It's an IRRATIONAL fucking FEAR; it's not supposed to be logical!

Kill all the butterflies. Amen.

You just have a wild imagination, like me, the dark does not scare me, i can walk around in pitch black and not care until i start to think of what could be there be it creepy girl from the exorcist to demons i will then become shaking with fear and run to the nearest light source, it's really really annoying. Heights, makes perfect sense, millions of people have a fear of heights, i too used to, all you need to do is go to a very high point (make sure it is also safe) and stare down to the ground and you will get used to it very fast, as for butterflies it's really not that abnormal, both my girlfriend, her mother and my mother are scared of butterflies/moths.

Don't worry, I get excited too in heights, but at the same time I feel alive and that's what I need to think: I cannot fall down, unless I want to. :D I bet you'll get over it.
Secondly, I quite enjoy being out after dark but also aware of that its this time of the day or weekend that I should be a little more careful who I look too much in the eyes, y'know? :) Some people just see that as a challenge or an excuse to hustle one of my zigzags man... hehe
And lastly, I really fucking hate bugs too... I get creeped out by them, but its not like I'm afraid of them, they're interessting on Animal Planet, but they just don't wanna be where I am, coz its SMASHING TIME !! :D Yea, kill your fears lol

Maybe it's just me, but I prefer funerals to weddings

Compared to my phobias, yours are pretty normal. We can't really help what we're afraid of, I guess.

I'm afraid of costumed people, more specifically the easter bunny :P

Well, given the fact that all phobias are normal, and phobias can be literally fear of anything, you are absolutely normal.

aww i love butterflies their so cute... the dark not so much haha only in the woods and when im alone i dont like the dark haha but i think its all normal i am scared of other bugs that fly around and are all sneaky haha

go 2 a doctor....

i dont really LIKE the dark, either. But I dont HATE it. I dont fear it. I dont look hights, like, climbing up a later. I feel like im going to fall and it makes me stomache churn. Butterflies? well. I guess thats normal. Dont worry, so normal!

Hey, HANNER!!! I know you, this is me, you know, Manfred (codename). Haha.

Alot of my friends are afrade of hights and so am i. I really think that butterflys are odd creatures if one lands on me i will run away and i also hate the dark it is not too comferting at all!!

what if you were standing on a high flight of stairs, in the dark, w/ about 200 butterflies flying around you? lol sorry I just had to ask.

I completely understand all of you phobias.

I sort of have something of each. I definetly have a phobia of heights myself. If I look down a cliff and see the very far bottom, I get chills and my feet feel like they are leaning far too forwards and that I get paranoid I might fall in at any time. I am also quite afraid of the dark. Maybe its mostly because I'e seen a lot of horro movies, but it's normal. I just don't get how my parents can handle the dark O.O its amazing.

Butterflies is also normal to be afraid of. If you look at one closely, the body of it looks pretty much the same as any ugly insect. Plus, you would get the feeling like its going to go right up in your face and scare the hell out of you. Or it might go into your mouth of something. Yea I guess I'm quite scared in something like that. It would not be a phobia though. I would just sort of duck out of the way if a butterfly comes near.

NORMAL! :)

well first of all you have to be, like, deathly afraid of these things to be a phobia.
heights, darkness, and insects are quite common things to be afraid of.
butterflies, might be a little awkward to some people, but really there's nothing wrong.
now, if you're so scared of butterflies that you have to run to the other side of the street, and can't even get close enough to squish it, then, you could have a phobia of butterflies.
but either way it's normal.

i hate the dark i need to see whats going on around me but i like heights for the most part but thats normal to be scared of that.. but butterflies i love them they land on me and thats good luck :) haha so i duno u need special help for that one lol

i was afraid of the dark...
my uncle locked me in the toilet flushed it and said the gremlins are coming..bastard lol
but it went, if i think about out it i can scare my self into not wanting to place my feet next to the bottom of my bed :)

Fear is nature's way of telling you to be careful.
So, as to the dark and heights, force yourself to experience them enough to get used to them. It happens faster than you think.
For example, I had to put a roof on a house by myself. I had a rickety (but reliable) ladder, and I had to carry the shingle bundles up on my head. I think there were 45 of them.
It was so hard at first. Each trip up and down took forever.
By the end of the job, I was carrying bundles 2 at a time, and when I neared the top of the ladder, if I didn't like where it was, I would jump it around like being on a 15' pogo stick.

As for the dark. There's nothing in the dark that isn't there in the light, so just satisfy yourself before you turn 'em off.

Can't help you with the butterflys. That's sick.

I also fear the dark...I need to have a light on in every room of my apartment whenever it's nighttime and I'm awake, but my friend downstairs will only have like one little reading lamp next to her bed on and the rest of her huge apartment is just one big dark void; she seems totally oblivious to it too. I'm not scared of butterflies or heights; in fact, I kind of enjoy heights.

i think that the best way to get rid of your fears is to actually face them.

im scared of height, i dont like going in planes!
but i love darkness, makes me feel alone

darkness and heights are common fears i should know I was afraid of my brothers bunk bed for a time!

LOlz

Well only vertigo is rational. Teh rest r just fuckin stoopid. I dunno how u can receive help for butterfly phobia lol.
