Oddly, it's heights. I say "oddly," because I never used to fear heights, and in fact enjoyed rock climbing as a boy. But I'd always had a terrible phobia of needles. Several of my childhood dentists (I didn't keep one for long...) ended up on the floor after producing a syringe. Now, I don't mind needles at all... But get me on a ladder, and I'm shaking like a chihuahua. Weird.

That's the other thing for me - needles and skin being cut - whether in a TV programme or the thought of being cut myself. Turns my stomach. That one's getting worse as I get older.

Needles, blood (my own or that of others), injuries have never 'put me off'. Except when it involves infants or children. I have a hard time dealing with that. Don't feel like throwing up--but, mentally it's very difficult to handle.

Tunnels under water.

Tunnels under ground I'm reasonably fine with, I don't panic if I'm stuck on the Underground train, but if it's under water.... get me out of there!

I can't walk any of the foot tunnels under the Thames river, because I start to hyperventilate and panic before I get halfway.... and the Channel Tunnel, no matter how short a time you are under water, is just never going to happen for me!

I like this quote that I saw once in a satirical horoscope (The Onion, I think):

Balloons. its the tension. they might go bang! {{shiver}}
When they actually do burst its not a problem - its the potential that seems to get me. am better than I used to be, but at one point I couldn't be in the same room as a balloon without feeling EXTREMELY anxious.

Also - I used to not be afraid of heights at all - loved climging trees etc, then after I had my daughter I suddenly became absolutely petrified of even fairly low heights. The full going dizzy and seeing/feeling everything swinging round. I think I read somewhere that its quite common for women to suddenly develop vertigo after having kids. weird.

" I had to avert my eyes from alongside the road when they had netting spread there to keep the banks/boulders from moving."

Ebbie, do you live in California??

I have a very annoying fear of deep water where I can't touch bottom.

I tried diving once. Went out and spent over $300 for the equipment. A friend took me out into Barnaget Bay, just a little bit off the dock. When I realized I couldn't put my head up and breathe, I paniced, inflated my vest and went to the top, pulled off my mouthpiece and backpaddled til I could touch bottom. That's when I found out about this damn silly fear. I really wanted to dive.

It hasn't gotten better, I'm afraid to go out into the ocean past my thighs.

It's funny because I can kayak way out on the deep water without fear. In fact, it's one of my greatest pleasures. Strange, huh?

Love, Annamill

Annamill, no, I've never lived in California although I visit frequently. I've lived in Alaska for 17 years so far; before then I lived in Oregon.

Last week I had an episode of claustrophobia. I was able to function fairly normally, kept my breathing even, consciously kept my muscles relaxed, and stayed in a conversation but it wasn't easy.

There is a three-mile tunnel leading to Whittier, Alaska, an end-of-the-road port town. The tunnel is only one lane wide and one's car literally straddles a train track. Vehicles are given a time table for when they may enter and when they must not.

We had the air conditioner going and I think that made it worse- there was an acrid, oily, heavy smell in my nostrils. A couple of hours later on our way back through I was fine. We also kept the air conditioner off.

Doug/darkriver, some things just can't be explained. One time, at about 10:30 PM in my home in Dayton, Oregon, I heard two fighter jets (i.e. not passenger planes) roar over my home. They were going fast. The sound was diminishing when the jets evidently turned and went in a slightly different direction. There was an air force post in Tillamook- not too far away, as planes go - so jets in my vicinity were not unknown. This time, although the feeling I had was not panic, my whole body chilled in fear.

Two days later, our local 3-issues a week newspaper had a short blurb saying that two jets had been sent out that evening from Tillamook in response to unidentified objects in the sky

I tend to feel that I somehow tuned into the fear the pilots were feeling.
