    Spiders, without a doubt. (scorpions dont bother me, & they're also arachnids, so I dont know why spiders should)

    Injections. Spinal tap & chemotherapy cured me of any possibility of ever dealing with getting a shot rationally.

    Bungee jumping. It's just WRONG!!!

    1. Going too fast if I am not in control of the vehicle, i.e. roller coasters.
    I can handle maybe one roller coaster ride a DAY if we go to an
    amusement park that has them, but it unsettles me for AWHILE.
    2. Watching needle-sticks (giving blood or getting a shot) given to ME.
    (I can watch other people get stuck without any problems),
    also, watching my OWN wounds get stitched up... which fortunately
    hasn't been necessary for a very long time. Maybe I've outgrown my
    sensitivity to it by now?

    LK-13: I was single '85-'06.
    What scares me: heights (my proof I love my wife - I get up on the roof and clean the gutters - twice a year!). Water can scare me - boating, that sorta thing - I've been working on it by doing a float trip with friends on a local river, the Grande Ronde (with wetsuit, life jacket, and lots of beer - counterproductive, I know, but that's how they got me into the innertube/raft, depending on the year) It's now a highlight of my summer, the 1-2 camping trips we do this... now if only my wife (she's the '06!) would feel more comfortable...

    "Going too fast if I am not in control of the vehicle."
    This one gets me too. I can handle speed, as long as I am the one behing hte wheels/bars. I haul 60-70 down backroads, but if I am riding shotgun, I'm grabbing the dash at those speeds.

    I've blasted over 100mph on a 30 year old bike down a backroad where the speed limit was 45, but I think if someone else was behind the controls I would have fainted or something!

    I too have a fear of injections. Not needles entirely, as I have had many piercings in my time, and a few tattoos... but hypodermic needles freak me out BIG TIME.

    alone in the dark...for some reason I feel like there are people around me, even when there are not.

    Some one else has this problem, where their house is a bit haunted. Problem is, my mother knows the names of the two folks who "live" in thier house, and sees them ever once and a while, as has my younger sister.

    Growing up on old indian land in New England...I'll bet this is a problem in many places.
