What is your worst fear, why, do you fear it everyday, only when you're around it, see it, hear it? I hate spiders, stuff like that but I think my worst fear the thing that really scares me is getting old and dying. I know we all have to die someday but it really scares me sometimes. I fear leaving my kids and family. I look forward to going to heaven one day but I really don't want that day to come for along time yet!

My worst fear at the moment is waking up and not being able to move. This happens to me every now and again and I hate it. It's such a frightening thing. I know there's a medical name for it, but I can't remember. It's called "sleep paralysis" or something. My mind wakes up but my body is still asleep and it feels like I'm paralysed. It's so scary.

It only started happening a few years ago. Sometimes I'm afraid to go asleep though.

That does sound pretty scary. That would be scary to experience that. Has it happened to you throughout your whole life?

My worst fear is snakes. I am sure it is because I was chased by one as a kid. Heck, I even dropped the class snake in 5th Grade. So it is amazing that I would go camping, but I do. Check out a trip we took on my homepage, they have road signs about snakes. Next is heights, I mean I can't fly so I'm afraid to fall.

I feel the same way as you do. I want to be around to see my kids get married and have kids. I am also afraid of clowns, any clowns, my kids think its funny

I know, I look forward to that and hope I get to live through all that also. I know it will make me feel even older though! My mom tells me all the time we make her feel old and the grandkids make her feel even older! I know, I don't see anything cute about clowns, they always looks scary. Thanks.

Mine is by far snakes!Hearing the word just gives me the creeps. I have never been too close to one and I would probably have a heart attack! I cant even stand those toy ones in the stores. My husband will pick one up and bring toward me joking around and I just totally freak. I cant even touch it even though its fake. His parents live in wooded area and one summer years ago as we were driving down the dirt road my husband noticed a snake laying in the road. So he stopped the car and got out and picked it up. He is like Steve Erwin, he doesnt care and isnt scared at all. He was a few feet away from the car, and he held it up I freaked out big time, I locked all of the car doors and started crying. I was making sure there was no way he was getting in the car, or getting that thing that close to me (LOL). At any rate, that is my phobia!

I really fear snakes... But I would say my worst fear is that something is going to happen to my children.. I can't even imagine.. We try to protect them as much as we can but is it ever enough? There are some things you can't protect them from.

My biggest fear is being sick, I think I have a phobia about it. If my kids are sick I can't be anywhere near them as I'm afraid I will catch something off them. I would like to train as a classroom assistant but wouldn't want to be clearing up sick all the time like the one in my daughters class seems to do.

I fear snakes and the bigger they are, the more reason why I should fear them. I do my best to stay out of their way and not having to meet them at all.
