I suffer from Coulrophobia, the fear of clowns.

The main reason?

Watch and see for yourself:

To this day, since seeing this movie, I can't look at a clown without becoming scared.

http://www.phobialist.com has a complete listing of phobias if you're curious to see what your fear is known as clinically.

Animals- Zoophobia(subtract dogs from that list).

My two greatest fears are falling from a great height (like out of a skyscraper, off a cliff, yadda yadda) which makes me extremely antsy about uncontrolled heights. You will *never* get me on one of those suspension bridge thingies over a canyon. Nosireebob. I'm also scared of fire, however, at the same time, I'm oddly fascinated by it. I think one of the reasons for this is the movie "The Towering Inferno" which I 1st saw on TV (split into 2 parts, shown over 2 nights as a major movie event) when I was a child. It gave me nightmares. Jennifer Jones and the scenic elevator just sent me into fits. Consequently, even watching some aireal footage on TV/film can put me on the verge of a panic attack. When I went to see "Charlie's Angels" in the theater, it was preceeding by a trailer for the film "Vertical Limit". I nearly riped the arm rests off of the chair. After 9/11, I was *exceedingly* prone to panic attacks. I was watching TV coverage constantly and the only thing I could think was "If I were on one of the top floors, would I decide to burn to death or leap to my death?" -- my 2 biggest fears and I had to pick one of them. *ugh* I can even put myself into a panic attack by simply thinking about falling off a cliff/building. I used to have dreams that my bed was located on a slanted roof of a skyscraper and I'd be scared that I'd roll over in my sleep, out of bed, and off the side of the building.

I have a fear of heights. I am the person that has a hard time getting on an airplane because of the height. I'm the person that has to latch on to someone the minute the plane takes off.

I won't get on rollercoasters because I fear of falling out of them when they go at their momentum speed.

Oh, I could NEVER! I'd feel so vulnerable... I could never do that.

Spiders. I can't even kill them. If I see one I'll go to the other side of the room.

Snakes....Oh the horror!

Snakes and fire. I am afraid I will be bitten by a snake. Also afraid I will die by fire. I am not afraid of dying, just dying by fire

Fear of Elevators (If the stairs are blocked off, I will walk all over a hospital to find a flight that's not to keep from using an elevator)

I had to use an elevator a few months ago, because the only stairs at the doctors office was blocked off. My mom was with me and I wouldn't let her get in the elevator with me because it would take up to much room. I decided to go first and then she could come up when it came back down again. It took what seemed like 15 minutes before I got one with no one in it. So during the wait, I'm sweating and about to have a full blown anxiety attack. I had my cell phone on, bottled water in hand (just in case) and finally the door opened and it was empty. Needless to say I was late for the appointment.

Fear of frogs & snakes (If I see either, I will litterally run screaming like a little girl.

Fear of clowns (Thanks to the movie Poltergeist, I haven't been to the circus since I was 5)

Fear of heights

Fear of living Life to it's fullest Which pretty much ruins my whole life

OMG Shawn, What movie is that? I stopped it as soon as I seen the evil clown.

I dont know if I really have a fear. I think Im scared of heights but then again I will go on a plane and rollercoaster and even want to jump out of a plane. I think Im scared of snakes but that would only be if I were near one. I dont know if its really a fear bc watching people on Maury, well those are real phobias. I never get scared or terrified by the mere sight or thought of anything

Fear of living Life to it's fullest Which pretty much ruins my whole life

I have that fear too. I'm envious of others who can enjoy their lives to the fullest, unafraid of their own shadow. I'm trying to neutralize that inhibition.

I fear being a failure, with only my aspirations being interred in my bones.

I fear being an eternal victim.

I don't want to die a violent death or see my family suffer a similar fate.

I'm afraid of being attacked.

I'm afraid of a neo- conservative regime that denies individuals the basic tenets to pursue their happiness, free of social protocol.

I [!@#$%^&*] hate cats; stupid things.

Heights make me nervous, but I love roller coasters. It's not a trepidation that's crippling in the least.

I think all fears can be conquered. I know that's how I operate in certian situations; I just go for it, regardless of if I succeed. Fear is just an evil spirit that I hope to ocmpletely eradicate from my life.

Fear of spiders (and other scary and harmful insects), most reptiles, dangerous animals, scary looking people....being hurt...

President George W. Bush.....I am not kidding that guy is scary. Heck I am more scared of him than Osama Bin Laden! Also an abnormal fear for me is fear of butterflies I have no clue why I fear them. Oh and of course death
