Face Your Fears: What Are They?
 

My wife & I were discussing this last night because of some random thing that caught our ears on tv. So the question is: What is your worst fear? We both gave it thought and finally agreed on the same thing:

#1: One of us becoming deathly ill or not coming home at all because of a car crash or something else equally as horrible. Aside from this, I don't believe there is much I can't handle.

But that seemed kind of obvious and non-fun, so let's hear the next 4 in line.



#2: Being falsely accused of something, in any country, and having to defend against it with a 50/50 possible outcome of prison. I'm reasonably sure I'd take myself out before I'd spend life in the slam.

#3: Becoming paralyzed. I'd rather be dead.

#4: Becoming deaf. I'd go insane.

#5: Bad things happening to my kids. This falls in at #5 because my kids are grown now. My stress over them has greatly decreased with their being old enough to take care of themselves.


So let's hear it. What gives you nightmares? :rasta

Crashing my car into water, and not being able to get out. Having to have a panic attack for how ever long it takes for my car to fill up and knowing I am going to die.....scares the shit out of me!!

My biggest fear is to start opening up on an adult webmaster board...

dsf
 

What about loosing important people (wife, parents, kids..)?

Meh... it's a fairly harmless exercise. Unless of course you actually hang out with porn people. For me that's not a problem. 3 feet away from this computer the whole porn world ceases to exist for me.

going blind maybe

lost of close family, to get some dead shit

My fear is that people communicate with deadly signs.
They yell death threats as a joke.

Eva and I both faced number one in the last two years. We both dodged the bullet.

Would put something happening to our daughter as the next.

Had nightmares about falling from a great height my whole life.

Went up this tower yesterday and there was no way I could go on the glass bit of the floor :(

Check. :thumbsup It's terrifying. It is good to fear this.

My fears are:

1) Losing my closest loved ones.

2) Not being able to provide.

3) Having an accident that would render me useless and bedridden, a burden on my family.

A pub with no beer.

pub with no beer = waiting room.

Sounds like an AA meeting.

dying in an avalanche while snowboarding, slowly suffocating under the snow. (we are heliboarding in Alaska this March lol).

painful heart attack.

my girl dying before me (lol).

I have that same fear. There is a small tool you can put in your car that will break your window https://www.saveyourlife.us/

I have a few

- Losing my daughter or her getting injured
- Losing friends and family
- Going deaf and not being able to hear music.

Fear of heights. I have faced it many times and still afraid.

Wow, I must be the most ambivalent fucker on the face of the planet, because none of the above would be on my list of official fears I have. I suppose it's that life is going to be what it's going to be in those regards. Of course life is what you make it, but the term "shit happens" also applies whether we like it or not. Fearing it or worrying about it isn't going to stop said "shit" from happening, so I'm simply not going to waste my time doing it.

I figure life is in many ways out of your control. It's like sitting around a poker table waiting for your cards. Do I sit there worrying about whether I'll get dealt a shitty hand? No, because you can still find a way to enjoy some 'win' even with the shittiest of hands. Same with life, things are going along great for you and then BAM, you get dealt a shitty hand. Big whoop, you pick yourself up, look around, and figure out how to make the best of it.

But if it's death? Whatever. Death is going to be what it's going to be, for all of us. I see no point in worrying about or fearing something that is inevitably going to catch up to all of us. Doesn't mean I wouldn't try to find my way out of a sinking car or dig my way out of an avalanche, etc. It just means that I'm not about to waste a second of my life worrying about when and how it will get me.

However, spiders tend to creep me out a bit. And bats. Bats give me the willies.

My biggest fear is that doctors keep blaming my problems on my Crohn's Disease and that there is something far more serious brewing that they are not catching.

Like the surgery I had a few weeks ago was supposed to fix everything and I felt good for a few days after and am right back to square one.

You wouldn't like it around here then. Every evening just as the sun is going down, thousands of bats drop down out from under the roof tiles and fly around like lunatics for a while until it's all the way dark, then they head off to wherever bats go. Every morning as the sun is coming up, they come back, fly around like crazed drunken bats and crawl back up under the roof tiles to sleep for the day.

Oh it's a scene man. :rasta

My biggest fear is to have an operation on my eyes. It scares me to death.

I agree, it was pretty terrifying for me also at first, but as soon as they start, everything goes dark. You can't see or feel a thing. That's what made it okay for me. If I had been able to see while they did it, I would've freaked out.

I don't know how blind people do it..mad respect for them.I agree with the paralyzed part..I couldn't do it

Waking up to realize you've been buried alive...

running out of pot

rabbits.

not finding someone who can love me like I can love................

Because of the injuries I sustained during Desert Storm...I have the real possibility of becoming paralyzed at some point in time...so it is #3 for me...and even though it would probably relieve me of the mind numbing pain I suffer 24/7...yeah I too rather be dead.

the most common fear of humans is being buried alive, guess that sortof applies to everyone here

added to my final will, bury me with a loaded 357, just in case.

they sell a little gizmo to pop the windows you you can get out

are you a fucking girl? a fat chick or what?

A simple (legal) Advanced Directive takes care of that fear easily. Just have it drawn up that you wish to be cremated instead. Guaranteed you won't ever be buried alive.

My worst fear would be being blind.Not seeing what's happening around me just would fuck me up.The next would be being possessed by a demon....I have a very religious background and they think that shits possible,also watching watching too many movies like the Exorcist,Drag Me to Hell, and shit like that.I take that back that is my worst fear...lol

I agree with Your number 3 also
#3: Becoming paralyzed. I'd rather be dead
