Phobias That Affect Your Day-To-Day Life

I have acrophobia (extreme fear of heights/falling) and it can be quite the pain. I have trouble going up a lot of stair cases (the open ones that are basically just connected platforms especially) and I can never go to things like the fair or amusement parks because just the thought of the rides absolutely terrifies me. Anyone else have any phobias that affect them almost daily?

I would not like to have that phobia! Fortunately, I have no phobias, although I am not too keen on clowns. . .

Oh yes, I know quite a few people that aren't too fond of clowns.

i do not like enclosed spaces. That only effects me if the area is small.

I have the same phobia. Fortunately one doesn't have to go to amusement parks. Open staircases are a different thing. Sometimes one can't avoid them. I hate them.
