What are everyones worst fears??

[krissy04]

I'll start off by saying, that my worst fear ever is drowning...i just think it would be horrible, and im also afraid of spiders! I guess i just want to know what other pple are afriad of.

I once heard someone say that "If you fear death, that is proof that you're alive". 

Sounds reasonable to me!

Public speaking is a big fear for me, it could even put me off ever getting married!

Wow, a lot of this stuff is depressing. On that note I'm afraid of getting old and nobody ever calling me and only having the walls to keep me company (as I am allergic to cats), then the only way I'd even be found dead is 2 weeks later when all the neighbors are complaining about the smell. I'm afraid of having married the wrong person. And I'm afraid of flying bugs getting into my orifices, as well as touching anything that's dead - be it roadkill with my wheels, or even a squished bug through a kleenex or my shoe.

As I said earlier, my first fear is being buried alive. My second fear is the thought of a WW3. I just couldn't bear the thought of any of my family suffering such a terrible thing like that. (UK)

I'm scared of public speaking too! It's fine in front of friends - i can sometimes be a bit of a show off. But when i was at college/Uni and now at work I feel physically ill if i have to speak in front of people. Teachers always said 'the more you do it, the easier it gets' and i have had to do it loads and it does NOT get easier! I am also scared of slugs and leeches - i go all funny if i see a slug on the floor and i pass it quickly even though i know it's hardly likely to dash after me! But the thing that scares me the most is losing my boyfriend.

I'm not scared of dying but I am scared of dying suddenly and stupidly and having never done lots of things I'd wanted to. By stupidly I mean not looking when crossing a road or something. Then my life would be cut short and I'd never have gotten to enjoy lots of things, the same goes for my fella. I think if he had cancer or something I could accept that, obviously it'd be hard but I've lost people close to me before and you survive. But sudden tragedies are... erm.... tragic and I'm afraid he'll be taken away from me suddenly. And also sheep, they have beady eyes and look scary.

And seaweed, jellyfish, octopusses (octopi?) (sp?), and anything else in the sea including the sea itself.

Going mad (my mother is schizophrenic so that's the big one), mad people, maggots, mould and abandoned shopping trolleys.

my biggest fear is dying before i do something important.  im 28 and so far all ive done is got a career, married and am raising 2 children.  i beleive god puts everyone on this earth to do 1 spectacular thing before we die.   i havent found what that thing is yet.  i dont want to be a fader.  i want to be remembered.

[krissy04]

2nd Row.  I read all your delightful answers and think you must have a terrific imagination.  Your way with words makes me laugh.  Keep it up!

My children dying before me

You people that fear dying have to be the stupidest and weakest people i have ever heard of. What is there to fear in death, if no one ever died then life wouldnt be precious and no one would apricate it. There would be no reason to live and it would be taken for granted fear of death is really just the fear that you life is not good enough and you are really afraid that you are not good enough. Stop saying you fear death and think about what you are really afraid of. Not living to you full potention, and if you fear that then you can change it, just live and stop being afraid. Come on people use your heads and think a little sometimes. It might do you some good.

[Dark Angel]

Being unable to fend for myself or being very ill. I don't really fear death, because that is an inevitable thing. But I supposed when our time comes we will all be afraid.

I worry about losing the frienships of people that I care about. Not that it has happened so far. But when I think of good friends falling out I fear it may happen to me by some chance.
