Blimey I couldn't reveal what I fear most just in case I ever end up in the real George Orwell's Room 101!!

I'm scared of men.
For some reason I keep trying to overcome the fear but alas they are still weird/freaks/bizarre/dishonest/lying b*stards/can't cook/leave the seat up/think they are gorgeous when they clearly aren't....shall I go on?...
I shall continue though and combat this fear:lol:
It's a tough job but someones gotta do it.

OMG:lol::lol: i'm calling dog chapman he'll sort em out

Phobias are becoming increasingly prevelent these days. Some people are suffering extremely badly when they 'stack' their phobias. By stacking I mean that they have a number of phobias that can be triggered at the same time.

For example, if you saw two very small, identical looking daddy long legs' you would have three phobias stacked and your head would probably explode from the anxiety.

There are a number of things you can do to avoid this situation occurring:

1. Repeat three times, three times a day for 300 days: 'all daddy long legs are unique and come in a variety of sizes. i will never meet twins or midgets or lord forbid midget identical twins'

2. Avoid sleeping with identical twins, midgets or identical twins that are midgets. the shock when you wake up could kill you.

3. Wear a sign around your neck warning identical twins that you may act irrationally. Do the same on your ankles for the midgets.

Hope this helps.

can someone define a fear against a phobia?
as i have arachnaphobia and am severley phobic about spiders and there is no way i could ever be in a room with one in a tank or similar, but someone who has a fear of spiders may be able to???
and someone who is just scared of spiders , is that soo different??

i could not touch a spider for a million pounds no way , i cant even touch a picture of a spider for a million pounds, even writing the word makes me feel funny

speaking of monsters when i was a wee yin ,i used to have a really really big fear about the loch i come from scotland and when visiting the loch the slightest ripple as that loch is so still and calm had me as i was expecting good old nessie to rear her head.

Isn't it lucky you don't have lactocafeinoflobonotebookophobia, an extreme aversion to spitting tea over laptops, otherwise the anxiety may have been too much

It's all about intensity though it's a fine line between a fear and a phobia. When you work with a phobia the feeling us usually a 9/10 if you ask the client to rate it on a 1 to 10 scale.
